Cast acrylic sheet

Cast acrylic sheet (Perspex - Plexi glass)

Cast acrylic sheet

Cast acrylic sheet are also known under brandnames like Perspex and Plexi glass

There are two sorts of acrylic sheet: extruded and casted ones. Extruded sheet often have the reference 'XT'.

Cast sheet offer - compared to extruded sheet - more possibilities or flexibility.

It is relatively easy to add a colour, or another additif, like 'antibac' to the process, while for coloured extruded sheet there is often a high minimum order quantity (MOQ), up to 10 tons.

Cast is a bit more clear compared to XT and has the advantage that the sheet does not shrink/expand as much as XT when exposed to temperature differences. That is the reason why Cast is used for many of these kind of applications, like glazing for yaghts, vessels etc.
