PLEXIGLAS® Resist is a highly weather resistant sheet material from impact-modified acrylic (polymethyl methacrylate, PMMA) which combines the positive properties of PMMA with the toughness of other plastics such as polycarbonate (PC).

The sheet therefore offers greater break resistance than standard acrylic during transport and handling, the entire fabrication process, installation and subsequent use.

Feature and benefits

• High impact resistance
• Excellent light transmission and brilliance
• Outstanding weather resistance
• Easy to fabricate
• High surface hardness
• Light weight – half the weight of glass
• 11 times more break resistant than glass
• Certified to DOT-112, AS-6, M-34 to M-84.

Applications

• Structural glazing outdoors, e.g. barrel vaults for bus stops, bicycle stands, walkways
• Protective glazing such as general access protection, housings for machines, equipment and workplaces
• Vehicle glazing, e.g. windscreens for motorcycles and scooters, interior glazing in buses and trains
• Glazing of shop fittings and counters
• Signage, e.g. illuminated signs, indicator panels, advertising pillars
• POP displays and sales stands, glazing of vending machines, drawing equipment etc.
