WE HAVE MADE IT EASY FOR YOU TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT ACRYLIC FROM OUR EXTENSIVE RANGE OF TYPES, SIZES AND COLOURS...

Our full range of colours and sizes can be found on our website. Our extensive range of acrylic ensures you can purchase the right material for your project and with our budget-conscious bulk-buy packs - at the right price.

We’ve grouped our acrylic by type, followed by sheet size, thickness and colour - ordering is quick and simple.

Manufactured in different ways, resulting in different properties, TSL’s range includes both cast and extruded acrylic. Cast is made from a mould while extruded is fed through an extruder barrel. Extruded has a better thickness tolerance although the cast is of higher quality and offers better optical properties.

Most of TSL’s range consists of cast acrylic which is more commonly used as it is lightweight but rigid, provides a great finish when used on a laser cutter, and offers strong UV protection. Extruded acrylic is often used as an alternative to glass as it is very impact resistant and less expensive. It also has the advantage of being thermoformable (can be used in vacuum forming) but it isn’t available in as wide a range of finish and colours as cast acrylic.
