ACRYLIC PANEL

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
