3mm Blue Coloured Acrylic 750

This blue 3mm coloured acrylic sheet is manufactured from cast acrylic (PMMA) — a premium-grade thermoplastic valued for its optical clarity, colour consistency, and mechanical strength.

With the blue colour cast through the full 3mm depth of the sheet, every cut edge and fabricated detail maintains a clean, consistent finish. The high-gloss surface on both faces gives a professional appearance straight from the sheet. Resistant to UV degradation, weathering, and moisture, this material holds its colour and clarity in demanding indoor and outdoor environments.

Beyond visual impact, this blue acrylic is practical to work with — it cuts cleanly with standard workshop tools, lasers, and CNC machines, and can be heated and bent into curved shapes for bespoke installations. The 3mm gauge suits marine-inspired retail displays, aquatic features, and creative installations. Supplied with protective film and available in custom dimensions.

Optical & Aesthetic

• Colour consistency: The blue pigment runs through the full 3mm thickness — cut edges display the same colour as the surface.
• Surface finish: High-gloss polish on both faces for a professional appearance without post-processing.
• UV stability: Resistant to yellowing and colour fade from prolonged UV exposure.

Mechanical Properties

• Impact resistance: Up to 17 times more impact-resistant than glass. Fractures into dull-edged pieces rather than dangerous shards.
• Weight: Approximately half the weight of equivalent glass — easier to transport, handle, and install.
• Weather resistance: Performs well outdoors without warping, cracking, or degrading.

Workability

• Machinable: Can be cut, drilled, routed, and polished. Compatible with laser cutting and CNC routing.
• Thermoformable: Can be heated and bent for curved components using a strip heater or oven.
• Bondable: Joins cleanly with solvent-based acrylic adhesives (Tensol, Extru-Fix).

Specification

• Material: Cast acrylic (PMMA)
• Thickness: 3mm
• Fire rating: Self-extinguishing, classified to BS 476

Commercial & Architectural

• This blue 3mm sheet is commonly specified for retail signage, exhibition stands, and point-of-sale displays in corporate, educational, and healthcare environments where colour-coded or branded materials are required.
• Illuminated panels, lightboxes, and backlit displays use coloured acrylic for even light diffusion with vibrant colour saturation.

Interior Design

• For interior applications, it suits room dividers, privacy screens, and decorative partitions.
• Splashback panels in kitchens and bathrooms provide a hygienic, waterproof surface that is straightforward to maintain.

Glazing & Screening

• A shatterproof, weather-resistant alternative to glass for patio covers, shed windows, and outdoor enclosures. Up to 17 times more impact-resistant at approximately half the weight.

Craft & Fabrication

• Compatible with laser cutting, CNC routing, drilling, and thermoforming. Widely used for art installations, sculptural work, and mixed-media projects.
