Features & Benefits

Product Highlights
  • The product is virtually unbreakable with extremely high impact resistance and offers high temperature performance too. The product provides designers, specifiers and architects with possibilities to use the sheets in applications where high optical quality is required replacing glass and other transparent plastics. The consistent high quality demands from the market helps to improve optical quality, machining, screen printability and thermoformability.
  • EXCELLENT FIRE PERFORMANCE complying requirements to EN 13501-1 (EUROPEAN BUILDING STD). In case of fire, the sheet will melt and allow venting where heat and smoke will be let out and therefore reduce the growth of fire by flame spread.
Makroclear™ SQ Benefits
  • High optical quality and outstanding clarity
  • Half the weight of glass
  • More than 10 times the impact strength of high impact PMMA
  • Good fire classification
