Ideal for use in glazing applications, Perspex® Clear transmits 92% of all visible light; no other product offers better light transmission, not even glass. It is half the weight of an equivalent sheet of glass and exceptionally strong, making it safe and more economic to transport and install. Outstanding weatherability, a high gloss, easy to clean surface, and easy thermoformability are just some of its key performance characteristics. Perspex® Clear can also be tinted to provide an array of transparent colors.
