This acrylic is 100% recycled and recyclable as well!
In a special factory, pre- and post-consumer acrylic is transformed into new raw material (MMA) with exactly the same high quality, both optically and mechanically, as new 'virgin' acrylic. In this way, acrylic can be recycled forever without loss of quality.
Our own acrylic leftovers (and those from Snijlab) are also collected separately and go straight back into this recycling process, becoming new sheets again.
There are several brands of recycled acrylic. Lasersheets supplies Green Cast® from Madreperla and ECO CAST® from Astariglas, among others.
Robust, semi-transparent plastic with a high-quality finish.
Characteristics The matted surface ensures that the material remains looking good for a long time. Scratches and stains from use are much less visible than on shiny materials. Furthermore, acrylic is impact-resistant, weather-resistant and easy to work with.
Applications This material is well-suited for products that are frequently handled and need to maintain a clean appearance without requiring regular cleaning. For example, in device housings, front sheets, mounting sheets, privacy windows, etc. Due to its light transmittance, it is also highly suitable for unique lamps and fixtures. In model construction, it can be used as a base or for striking facades. This acrylic is also commonly used decoratively in works of art and in the advertising industry for logos, promotional items, and lettering.
