In addition to the standard grade of PERSPEX® acrylic, we also offer UV absorbing grades in both clear and opal/white.
PERSPEX® VE is available for applications where the minimum transmission of UV light is required, for instance in the glazing of museum exhibits to protect delicate artefacts. PERSPEX® VE absorbs 99.99 % of all incident UV light below 400 nm.
PERSPEX® VA is the preferred product for picture or artwork glazing applications where optimum UV protection coupled with maximum optical clarity is required in order to see the object on display in its true colours. PERSPEX® VA also lends itself to glazing applications in tropical regions and high UV intensity street lighting applications.
