Perspex® Acrylic Sheet offers a degree of UV resistance, but the answer isn’t as simple as “yes” or “no.”
-
Standard Perspex® Acrylic Sheet blocks most harmful UV light up to a wavelength of 360nm. This covers the most energetic part of the UV spectrum—the range most likely to cause damage to people, plants, and materials.
-
Perspex® VA Grade (UV Resistant) has been specifically engineered to block virtually all UV rays up to 370nm. This grade is ideal for applications where minimising UV exposure is critical, such as display cases, picture framing, and conservation work.
For a more detailed explanation, see our blog post: The Truth About Perspex® UV Resistance – and Why It’s Important.
Yes, Perspex® Acrylic Sheet is manufactured with UV-absorbing additives to enhance its stability when exposed to sunlight. This means it resists yellowing, cracking, and loss of strength, helping it retain both appearance and durability over time.
-
Perspex® Clear Cast Acrylic Sheet comes with a 30-year guarantee against discolouration.
-
Perspex® Coloured Cast Acrylic Sheet is guaranteed for 10 years.
These guarantees provide long-term assurance that Perspex® will maintain its clarity and performance, even in outdoor applications.

The weight of any plastic can be calculated using the simple formula: Weight = Volume x Density
