Ask
Dr. Dan
How do you make Acriglas ®?
Well
I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you!
Seriously
though, we make Acriglas through a process called Cell casting.
The technology is almost a century old, and nothing revolutionary
has come along to change it much, but what we do to achieve some
of our special effects is proprietary.
No
other manufacturer of cast acrylic has figured out how to cast a
"brushed metallic" acrylic sheet, but Acrilex. And as for Acrifluor,
we again are the only manufacturers of a translucent fluorescent
product in acrylic, which has the properties of light diffusion
that it exhibits.
And
while other manufacturers overseas can produce pearlescent, marble,
granite and metallic colors, none can offer the degree of customization
offered by Acrilex, especially in short run quantities, with the
consistent quality of Acriglas. And none can turn around and order
in less than two weeks. Our magic is very special. We are very proud
of what we can do, and love the challenges our customers send our
way.
