Acrylic, often known as Perspex, is a material loved for its strength, clarity, and versatility. At first glance it looks like glass, but it’s actually lighter, safer, and up to 10 times stronger, making it the perfect choice for projects where both style and durability matter. Acrylic allows more than 90% of light to pass through, so whether you choose clear, coloured, or opal sheets, you’ll always get a bright and professional finish.
One of the best things about acrylic is how easy it is to work with. It can be cut, drilled, engraved, or shaped without losing its quality, meaning it can be tailored for almost any job. That’s why it’s trusted by so many industries and individuals — from shop signage, advertising displays, and protective screens to interior design, furniture making, glazing, lighting, and creative DIY projects.
We stock acrylic sheets in a wide choice of sizes, thicknesses (2 mm, 3 mm, 5 mm, and 10 mm), and colours. You can pick from standard clear sheets for everyday use, bold solid colours for branding and design, or specialist finishes such as opal (light-diffusing) and mirror acrylic for illuminated or decorative features.
Whether you’re a sign maker wanting clean, professional panels, a builder needing strong and safe glazing alternatives, or a DIY enthusiast working on home décor, acrylic sheets offer the perfect mix of strength, flexibility, and style. They are also UV-resistant and weatherproof, making them just as reliable outdoors as they are indoors.
At United Bond, we make it easy to order the acrylic you need. Choose from our standard sheet sizes or use our CNC cutting service, which starts from free, to have your sheet prepared exactly to your measurements. Whatever your project, acrylic is a material that combines beauty with practicality — and we’re here to make sure you get it in the way that works best for you.
