Frequently Asked Questions
Is recycled acrylic as clear and strong as virgin acrylic?
Yes! Recycled acrylic maintains the same optical clarity, impact resistance (17 times stronger than glass), and fabrication properties as virgin acrylic. The recycled content comes from post-industrial materials that are reprocessed to meet the same quality standards, so there's no compromise on performance or appearance.
What makes acrylic "recycled" and how is it made?
Recycled acrylic is made from post-industrial acrylic waste materials that are collected, cleaned, and reprocessed into new sheets. This process diverts waste from landfills and reduces the need for virgin materials, making it an environmentally responsible choice while maintaining identical performance characteristics.
Can I fabricate recycled acrylic the same way as regular acrylic?
Absolutely! Recycled acrylic cuts, drills, bends, polishes, and bonds exactly like virgin acrylic using the same tools and techniques. There are no special considerations or different handling requirements - it works identically in all fabrication processes.
Is recycled acrylic more expensive than standard acrylic?
Recycled acrylic is slightly more expensive than standard acrylic due to the additional processing required to create the recycled content, but the price difference is minimal. You get the same performance and quality with significant environmental benefits, making it an excellent value for sustainability-conscious projects and businesses looking to reduce their environmental impact.
