Detailed description:

Optical clarity

Clear cast acrylic has an exceptionally high level of light transmission allowing 92% of all visible light through the material creating an unparalleled crystal clear finish. Not even glass can achieve this level of optical clarity. Because of this clear cast acrylic is an excellent alternative to glass for glazing purposes.

Hard wearing

Cast acrylic is one of the hardest thermoplastic sheet materials available and its attractive aesthetics remain for longer than other plastic sheet materials.

Light weight

While offering higher levels of clarity than glass, clear cast acrylic weighs half as much as an equivalent glass panel making fabrication, installation and transportation a far more attractive proposition.

High gloss finish and easy to clean

Its high gloss finish is not only very attractive but also more practically very easy to clean.

Weather resistant

With excellent resistance to the elements, cast acrylic performs well outside. No significant changes in appearance are expected over 10 years.

Manufacturing process

Cast acrylic is manufactured by pouring monomer between two sheets of high quality glass and polymerised in batches in a carefully controlled manufacturing process.

Recyclable

Cast acrylic can be recycled all the way back to its original raw material, the monomer.

Excellent product for displaying one of our products. Probably should of had all sides polished, but we didn't adk for that. Spot on service.

Paul M 09/05/2018 07:49:06

Noor 01/05/2018 00:59:06

I have used the slab in my arts course work. Absolutely 5* quality. Good service. Excellent communication. Kept me updated throughout. Would not only buy the stuff from them but also strongly recommend them to everyone. Best wishes!

George Gilroy 26/04/2018 20:43:06

This block was bought to display a small sculpture. The quality of the block is excellent, and it was delivered in good time. Very pleased with it.

Steve 29/03/2018 19:39:46

This and the other product I ordered arrived well packaged, completely unmarked and soon after order placement. Very happy with the service, would order again

Sharon Whitley 24/03/2018 20:43:35

Deborah Watts - Arakoola Kard Art 23/03/2018 16:03:09

I run craft workshops and have been restricted by having to use off the shelf sized acrylic blocks at extortionate prices. Simply Plastics provides a bespoke cut to size block service which enables me to choose the block size I need for all of my craft projects. Easy ordering process, fantastic service, great prices, and quality products. I wont need to look any further for my blocks in the future.

David 05/01/2018 09:14:10

Used as a plinth for a VERY HEAVY clam shell - virtually invisible, works well

Jane Cocker 01/03/2017 11:48:40

Bought to elevate porcelaine figures in a display cabinet. Does the job perfectly. Service was quick and hassle free. Would recommend to others and use again as and when necessary.

Andrew Leach 07/12/2016 19:55:21

Perspex is expensive. But these prices were the best I found. The block I bought weighed over 11kg and arrived within a couple of days, well packed and undamaged. The finish was excellent — it was needed for a glass shelf and is practically invisible. Recommended.

Andrew Phillips 19/10/2016 08:17:27

I used the block as a base for a stone amonite, I was unsure when I ordered the product and didn't get the edges polished ! I phoned the company and explained , returned the item and they rectified my mistake, all in 3 days , extremely helpful and efficient. Really can't recommend them enough.
