New super abrasion resistant acrylic revolutionises architectural and building applications from All Plastics Engineering
Allplastics has introduced a new Super Abrasion Resistant (SAR®) acrylic sheet which has finally provided architects, designers, builders and manufacturers with a real alternative to glass. No longer can it be said that acrylic scratches easily, indeed this revolutionary material displays a clear difference to all other clear glazing materials. SAR® is abrasion resistant and as such resists scratching with abrasion resistance performance not dissimilar to glass. SAR® is produced by applying a very hard coating to a Perspex™ acrylic substrate. This quality coating provides SAR® with a surface that has 45 times the abrasion resistance of uncoated acrylic, making it an attractive material for applications that require the safety, optical and aesthetic qualities of acrylic along with a highly abrasion-resistant surface coating for internal and external projects. Vic Kalloghlian from Allplastics says "At half the weight of glass, SAR® makes handling easier and safer, and installation less costly and time consuming. It can be cut and fabricated at the installation site using power tools. In fact SAR® is ideal for glass replacement installations because it is readily fitted into existing frames."
