Cast Acrylic Mirror
Cast acrylic mirror is a lightweight, reflective thermoplastic material with a wide array of colors enabling utilization across a number of industries. Acrylic mirror is remarkably durable through it’s vacuum metalizing process in which the mirrored surface is created. The flashy mirror surface and inherent properties of cast acrylic enable many aesthetic applications including signage and POP displays.
Unlike traditional glass mirrors, cast acrylic mirror offers a lightweight and shatterproof alternative, reducing risks linked with breakage and fostering safer environments. The exceptionally light weight of acrylic mirror, being half that of comparable glass, reduces transportation costs and improves the installation process. In addition, acrylic mirror sheets can be mounted using screws or numerous suitable adhesives.
