Differences Between Plexiglass and Acrylic
Acrylic and plexiglass refer to the same material, both made from polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), a transparent thermoplastic recognized for its strength, clarity, and versatility. There are no major differences in composition, durability, or appearance. Both materials provide excellent optical clarity, are lightweight, and offer superior impact resistance compared to glass. They are also shatter-resistant, weatherproof, and easy to cut, shape, and install, making them suitable for a variety of applications, including signage, displays, and protective barriers.
