Why do you laser cut acrylic over other methods?

Laser cutting acrylic offers many advantages compared to CNC routing or waterjet cutting. Laser-cut acrylic comes off the machine with a near flame-polished edge, requiring minimal post-processing. Achieving this edge quality through other methods would involve time-consuming and expensive manual finishing. Unlike CNC routers, lasers can also cut more precise interior features without the need for a radius, delivering cleaner, more accurate cuts in less time.

Acrylic, also known as Perspex, is a versatile plastic sheet material that offers exceptional strength and optical clarity. It's easy to work with, making it suitable for a wide range of applications from signage to architectural features. It offers excellent optical clarity (up to 92% light transmission), a high-gloss finish, hard-wearing durability, weather resistance for outdoor use, and is lightweight and easy to fabricate.

How clear is acrylic?

Acrylic offers exceptional light transmission, up to 92% of visible light, providing a crystal-clear finish unmatched even by glass. This makes acrylic an excellent choice for glazing and display applications where optical clarity is critical.

How strong and durable is acrylic?

Cast acrylic is one of the toughest thermoplastic materials available, maintaining its appearance and integrity over time. It is known for its impact resistance and is durable enough for both indoor and outdoor applications. Despite its clarity and strength, acrylic weighs only half as much as an equivalent glass panel, making transport and installation far easier.

Is acrylic weather-resistant?

Yes. Acrylic performs well in outdoor environments and resists weathering, with no significant changes in appearance expected for up to ten years.

What acrylic do you have in stock?

We stock acrylic sheets in 2mm, 3mm, 4.5mm, 6mm, 8mm and 10mm thicknesses. Our clear acrylic range is extensive, while coloured and translucent sheets are limited to 3mm or 6mm thickness. For more details on colour and finish options, including frosted, tinted and mirrored finishes, please contact us.

What are common applications for acrylic?

Acrylic is used across many industries: signage with intricate logos and lettering, retail and product displays, architectural features such as custom windows and panels, art and craft projects, and protective barriers such as custom-sized sneeze guards and shields for offices and retail environments.
