Acrylic Fabrication

Acrylic is a versatile material that can be shaped and curved into unique and interesting shapes. Acrylic fabrication ranges from shaping a single piece of acrylic to creating the most complex of designs as using our expertise we can join multiple pieces of acrylic together. The huge range of colours available in the Perspex range makes for some truly amazing final products. Cast acrylic is more suited to more complex fabrication work as the casting process makes it more resilient to bending and shaping. Extruded acrylic can also be used in fabrication work, however the extruding process makes it more suited to less complex acrylic fabrication. See our website to view our gallery of arcylic fabrication.
