Acrylic Panel are more translucent than glass and when it comes to withstanding pressure acrylic panels are superior as they are less brittle and hold back higher loads. That is why it is the material of choice for underwater viewing, oversized public aquarium, swimming pool or water features.
Acrylic panels have the following attributes :
No size limitation
Seamless join
Clear and distortion-free view
Lighter compare to glass
Easy of care and clean
Extremely high stability and break resistance
Good heat insulation
Excellent weather resistance
Predictable long-term behavior
Polishable
UV treated to resist yellowness
