PLEXIGLASS - ACRYLIC SHEETS - EXTRUDED
Plexiglass / Extruded Acrylic Sheet (aka Plexiglass, Lucite, Acrylite, Optix, Plexi) is an excellent glazing, signage, window or display material that is unaffected by moisture, and offers a high strength-to-weight ratio. Acrylic (plexiglass) offers high light transmittance and can be easily heat-formed without loss of optical clarity. Professional Plastics offers generic acrylic sheets rather than Plexiglas® brand sheets. Plexiglas® is a tradename of Arkema, not the brand distributed by Professional Plastics. Plexiglass Acrylic sheets may vary slightly by brand based on varying production techniques.
Translucent = Light & Shadows can be seen through Sheet. Transparent = Images can be viewed through sheet (like tinted glass) Opaque = Neither light nor images can be seen through the sheet.
