Surrounded by colorful sea creatures, visitors to this mall enjoy a peaceful aquatic environment thanks to ACRYLITE® acrylic block.
The structure consists of three massive round aquariums varying in height and diameter using 2.4" acrylic block. All blocks were thermoformed in a heating cabinet and then bonded using ACRIFIX® reactive cement, a multi-component adhesive to ensure a bubble-free, durable bond.
Selection Criteria
- Unsurpassed light transmission without optical distortion, lightweight, high impact strength and easy to form and bond:
- The light transmission of ACRYLITE® block is a 92%. With glass, there is a loss of more than 60% light transmission at a thickness of 2.4''.
- Acrylic block meets the structural requirements compared to glass. The material can be thermoformed and cemented what is an important feature when manufacturing custom round aquariums.
