ACRYLITE® for Framing and Picture Glazing

ACRYLITE® acrylic offers the best glazing materials for every type of picture frame imaginable, from floating, hanging, or tabletop options. Acrylic is a great alternative to glass as it is half the weight and much stronger than glass. It is also ~20 times more impact resistant than typical glass. This makes acrylic the perfect choice for areas with high traffic or where safety and ease of handling are of concern.

Another advantage of acrylic over glass for use in framing applications is its UV filtering properties that protect your artwork and pictures from fading. Like acrylic, glass will protect against dust and scratches but it can't protect against the harmful UV rays that can deteriorate your artwork, sketches, images, and documents.
