3mm Neutral 914 Coloured Acrylic

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

The brown pigment is distributed throughout the full 3mm sheet thickness, so cut and machined edges display the same colour as the surface face. Both sides carry a high-gloss polished finish, reducing the need for post-processing in most applications. UV-stable formulation prevents yellowing and colour fade, keeping the sheet looking sharp over extended service life in both interior and exterior settings.

From furniture components, decorative screening, and complementary accents for timber-framed installations, this brown 3mm sheet adapts to the demands of the application. It machines cleanly on laser cutters, CNC routers, and table saws, and thermoforms at controlled temperatures for curved and shaped components. Available in standard stock sizes or cut to your specification.

Optical & Aesthetic

• Colour consistency: The brown 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).

Architectural & Interior

• Warm-toned brown acrylic integrates well into feature walls, reception areas, and commercial interior fit-outs. The natural palette complements timber, stone, and earth-toned material schemes.
• Illuminated panels, lightboxes, and backlit displays use coloured acrylic for even light diffusion with vibrant colour saturation.

Glazing & Screening

• As a glazing material, the 3mm sheet provides a tinted, shatterproof alternative to glass for protective screens, sneeze guards, and safety barriers.
• 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 protective screens, sneeze guards, and safety barriers. 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.
