    Clear Perspex Sheet Cut To Size Details

    Clear Perspex® Sheet, a Friend In Need

    Clear Cast plastic sheeting is a wonderful material to use both indoors and outdoors. The excellent strength of acrylic sheeting, outstanding clarity, and ease of handling, make clear plastic sheets suitable for professionals and DIY hobbyists. Transparent acrylic sheets are the best choice for replacing glass.

    The chemical name for acrylic is Poly(methyl methacrylate), or PMMA. Some popular brands supplying PMMA sheets are Lucite®, Plexiglas®, and Perspex®.

    At plasticsheets.com, we stock the highest quality Perspex® sheets, so you can depend on them to be strong, durable, resistant to weathering, and always there when you need them. All Perspex® sheeting comes with a 10-year manufacturer’s guarantee.

    Cut to size clear plastic panels are available in many thickness options and are beautifully see-through, with a glossy surface. You are sure to find your dream sheet in no time.

    Exceptional Strength of Clear Plastic Sheeting

    Clear plastic panels can be used for any outdoor applications because they are resistant to impact, weathering, and high or low temperatures. See-through sheeting performs well in temperatures as low as -20°C in winter and as high as +30°C in summer.

    Transparent sheeting is perfect for secondary glazing or cut to size greenhouse panels and shed windows. Transparent plastic isn’t just clearer than glass, but also up to 20 times stronger and affordable. You can use clear Perspex® sheeting for cold frames and keep your plants safe and protected.

    Clear plastic sheeting is flame and heat-resistant. Perspex® clear material does well in temperatures below 80-85°C. Clear acrylic Perspex® has a Class 4 or 3 Fire Rating, depending on thickness.

    This means you can use a clear plastic sheet for a cut to size kitchen splashback. All you need to do is make sure it is not exposed to open flames. Clear sheeting is also suitable for bathroom panels.

    Incredible Clarity of Transparent Perspex® Sheets

    Clear plastic sheeting is a tough and reliable material, often used to replace glass panes. The clarity of see-through acrylic is 92%, more than glass, which is 89% transparent. There is no colour bias, and your sheet won’t yellow.

    Transparent plastic panels have almost endless purposes. Clear acrylic sheeting is a popular choice for window replacements, but it can be a fun sheet, too. You can use it for decoration of your home, arts and crafts, or DIY features.

    Clarity and strength make cut to size transparent acrylic a great material for painting and picture frames. We can custom cut a clear acrylic sheet to any width and height. Whether you are replacing a broken glass photo frame or displaying your favourite artwork, we can help you make it last.

    Clear acrylic panels and shapes are excellent for art, for example, as bases for paintings. You can paint on acrylic in any way you like. Its crystal clear, brilliant surface will make the colours and design stand out.

    Cut to size clear acrylic blocks are an elegant and durable choice for displaying art, especially sculptures. Transparent sheeting will look stunning as a sign, shelf, or a display for your favourite collectibles.

    Glossy Surface of Clear Plastic Sheets

    Cast acrylic sheeting has good electrical insulation properties and diffuses light beautifully. Made to measure clear sheeting is perfect for any illuminated space and works well with LEDs and even glow-in-the-dark lightning.

    Transparent plastic panels are an excellent choice for a glossy tabletop protector, desk, or patio table.

    For projects including light sources, check Frosted Perspex®.

    Clear Perspex® Sheets Cut to Size and Shape

    Transparent sheeting can be as thin as 2 mm or as thick as an acrylic block of 30 mm. You can buy a made to measure acrylic sheet, in any size and shape.

    Half-sized clear sheets measure 1520 mm x 2050 mm or 3050 mm x 1020 mm. You can also find full clear sheeting, measuring 3050 mm x 2050 mm.

    We use professional tools and machines to cut and fabricate plastic sheeting to your exact measurements. All cast acrylic panels can be polished to the highest standard, for a smooth, stunning edge you want to display.

    With plasticsheets.com choosing your shapes, screw hole sizes, and distances or rounded edges is easy and quick.

    We keep our tolerances low and our quality high because we believe that if you can dream it—we can make it.

    We can tailor your panel or sheet to accommodate sockets or unusual spaces with excellent, bespoke cutting service.

    Perspex® sheets are made of high-quality acrylic, which makes them highly scratch-resistant. The surface is easily cleaned with lukewarm water and a gentle cloth. If the sheet does get scratched, you can use an acrylic cleaner to make it perfect again.

      The item arrived very quickly and was very well packed and protected.
      I had 2 sheets of 4mm to cover a picket fence and to prevent my cat from getting on to the main road. The item was cut precisely to my specifications and fitted perfectly. It was easy to secure to my fence. I am very pleased with my purchase and would buy here again if required, without hesitation.

      3mm sheet was delivered cut exactly to size as required. Ordering on a mobile phone was a bit difficult due the quantity of information, layout and print size. causing wrong information being sent. My mistakes were sorted quickly and courteously and correct sheet sizes forwarded promptly. I was impressed with the service of the team.
