Acrylic Sheet Price in Pakistan

Glass alternative

Acrylic sheets are solid sheets made out of acrylic resin. The sheets are clear like glass, with great weather resistance and are shatterproof which makes them less dangerous. Also, another advantage over glass is the weight, which is a lot less in comparison. The one disadvantage that acrylic sheets bear is that they scratch a lot easier than glass. There are modified acrylic sheets that have additions which make them more use-specific. Such as butyl acrylate is often added to improve impact strength in case that quality is needed more. A known and original brand that makes acrylic sheets is Plexiglas. Over time these sheets have come to also be known as plexiglass. Acrylic sheets, like other plastics, are available in many different colours as well.
