Need an easy alternative to glass but don’t want to give away strength, durability and clarity? Acrycast® Cast Acrylic Sheet, is a premium quality branded product with a pedigree of more than 20 years of performing at the highest levels in world markets.

Acrycast sheets are produced in Asia from methyl-methacrylate monomer and have outstanding physical, mechanical, optical, chemical resistant, and thermal properties.

Acrycast is manufactured from a lightweight, rigid thermoplastic material that has many times the breakage resistance of glass and offers excellent outdoor stability when exposed to the ‘Australian sun’.
