Plexiglas
PLEXIGLAS® is the world's first acrylic (= polymethyl methacrylate, PMMA). It has also been used for many years in building aquariums, enabling us to acquire good knowledge and experience in this sector. GS stands for cast solid sheets and blocks of PLEXIGLAS® (polymerized in cells consisting of two high-quality.)
Aquariums
As an extremely large monolithic acrylic sheet, PLEXIGLAS ®
is the ideal material for aquarium construction.
Flat sheets offer
A clear, distortion-free view in authentic colors,
Ease of installation and care,
Extremely high component stability and break resistance,
Easy bonding of various structural components,
Freedom from condensation due to good heat insulation.
Curved sheets are easy to fabricate owing to their
Very good thermoformability, and
Offer wide creative scope.
Glazing of Pressure Equipment
PLEXIGLAS® is the first choice when it comes to withstanding pressure. The arguments in its favor are the material's
Clear, distortion-free view,
Homogenous, monolithic character,

Technical Applications
Protective glazing, milled parts, lenses – PLEXIGLAS® enables
all these and many more, thanks to its
Special optical properties,
High resistance to solvents and chemicals,
Resistance to ballistic impact,
Great ease of machining and thermoforming.
Protective Glazing of Animal Enclosures
PLEXIGLAS® protects animals and visitors alike, and affords a clear
view from both sides. It is the ideal material for transparent barriers
around animal enclosures in zoos and wildlife parks, due to
Excellent permanent service properties
and Enormous break resistance.
Art and Decoration
PLEXIGLAS® is also suitable for adding intriguing
touches and awakening interest. Its
Brilliance, lighting effects,
Variety of colors
invite artists and designers to make creative use of the material.
