5mm Green Recycled Acrylic 72354

This green 5mm recycled acrylic sheet is made entirely from reclaimed acrylic waste, diverted from landfill and reprocessed into a premium-grade cast sheet. It performs identically to virgin acrylic in every measurable property — colour consistency, impact resistance, UV stability, and machinability.

The green pigment is distributed throughout the full 5mm thickness for consistent colour on all cut edges. Both faces carry a high-gloss polished finish. UV-stable formulation prevents yellowing and colour fade, ensuring reliable appearance in both indoor and outdoor environments. Up to 17 times more impact-resistant than glass at approximately half the weight.

Suitable for health and wellness spaces, pharmacy branding, and sustainable design projects. Compatible with laser cutting, CNC routing, drilling, thermoforming, and solvent bonding. Particularly relevant for organisations with sustainability policies, educational institutions, and brands seeking to demonstrate environmental responsibility through their material choices. Supplied with protective film and available cut to size.

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

Sustainable Signage & Displays

• Recycled green acrylic allows businesses to meet sustainability targets without compromising on visual quality. Particularly suited to educational settings where sustainability is part of the institutional values.
• Vibrant colour saturation and consistent pigmentation make recycled acrylic indistinguishable from virgin material in display applications.

Interior Design & Architecture

• Splashbacks, feature panels, glazing, and screening — all standard acrylic applications are fully achievable with recycled material. UV-stable and weather-resistant for indoor and outdoor use.

Craft & Fabrication

• Fully compatible with laser cutting, CNC routing, and thermoforming. Being 100% recyclable at end of life supports a circular approach to plastic use.
