5mm Green Coloured Acrylic 6205

A safer, lighter, and more durable alternative to glass, this green 5mm coloured acrylic sheet delivers comparable optical quality with significantly better impact resistance and workability.

Cast from polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), the green pigment is integral to the material rather than applied as a surface coating. This means the 5mm sheet maintains its colour through cutting, routing, and edge polishing. The UV-stabilised formulation resists yellowing and fading, with both surfaces delivered in a polished gloss finish.

From outdoor signage, garden room glazing, and landscape architecture features, this green 5mm 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 green pigment runs through the full 5mm 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: 5mm
• Fire rating: Self-extinguishing, classified to BS 476
• Operating temperature: -40°C to +80°C continuous use

Commercial & Architectural

• This green 5mm 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 furniture components, shelving inserts, and built-in cabinetry.
• 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 secondary glazing, greenhouse panels, and skylight installations. 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.
