Special Features

• Anti-glare: Anti-glare sheets are shatter resistant, lightweight and ideal for glazing. They are suitable for signage, silk-screening and POP displays. 
• Anti-scratch: Scratch resistant sheets provide good protection against scratches. They are suitable for retail displays, table tops and door panels. 
• High Impact PMMA: Acrylic sheets modified for high impact strength are much harder than normal acrylic sheets or glass sheets of the same thickness. These sheets are suitable for signage, displays, skylights and other transportation purposes.
