Anti-reflex sheets are special XT acrylic sheets with an anti-reflective surface on one side. This minimizes the reflection of light or sun. This way you will not suffer from the light nuisance in situations where the material does not have to reflect. Be aware that the sheet is only transparent if there is no space between the plexiglass sheet and the product behind the sheet, such as a poster or piece of paper. At a distance greater than 1 cm, the sheet is not transparent, but translucent. Please make sure that there is no space between the two parts otherwise the material is not transparent anymore.
Anti-reflex sheets offer the same excellent advantages as normal clear extruded acrylic. Acrylic is a special and beautiful material and we want to show our beautiful collection of transparent acrylic sheets (PLEXIGLAS®) to you and the world! What is so special about this material? It is made of acrylic. Acrylic is known to be 25x stronger than glass and up to three times lighter. In addition, the material is UV resistant and easy to fabricate. Acrylic is particularly durable due to a very long colourfastness and lifespan.
When do you choose extruded (XT) acrylic?
The advantages of extruded XT acrylic sheets (plexiglass) is that it hardly has a thickness tolerance. This means that the sheet always has the thickness you ordered. For applications where the material is in a profile or a flat surface is required, we recommend the use of extruded acrylic. Because XT acrylic is produced in large quantities, XT sheets are relatively slightly cheaper than cast (GS) sheets. Do you want more choice of thicknesses, colours and surfaces? Then you can choose cast acrylic.
Acrylic sheets with a one-sided anti-reflex surface are in stock in 2 and 3mm thick with a maximum sheet size of 3050x1250mm. Other thicknesses can be ordered with a minimum order quantity. Beside scratch-resistant acrylic, we also have standard clear, impact-resistant and anti-reflex acrylic. Clear acrylic is in stock in thicknesses of 1,5mm up to 20mm. The acrylic can be ordered cut to size via our webshop.
Are you looking for thicker acrylic? Then you can choose acrylic block, this is cast acrylic up to a thickness of 90mm. Are you looking for acrylic that is thinner than 1mm? Then you can choose precision acrylic Topacryl®.
PyraSied also offers an environmentally friendly alternative to cast acrylic, Greencast® 100% recycled cast acrylic. Greencast® has exactly the same properties as normal cast acrylic but is the green, circular choice in the acrylic world. Greencast® is offered in clear and different colours, but also in white, black and opal.
Anti-reflex acrylic is widely used as cover sheets and in displays where the reflection should be minimal. The material is very suitable for in museums in front of art pieces for example. Do you want to explore all the possibilities with acrylic? Then take a look at our Acrylic community for various examples of applications with acrylic.
Acrylic is very easy to fabricate. The possible fabrications are cutting, milling, laser-cutting, oven bending, bonding, drilling, faceting, polishing, sanding and printing. When bending XT acrylic, pay attention to the direction of extrusion. XT acrylic can be curved best perpendicular to the extrusion direction. The direction of extrusion is parallel to the long side. These fabrications can be performed by PyraSied if desired. We deliver from our excellently equipped workshop – where high-tech machinery and traditional craftsmanship ensure optimum results, completely tailored to your drawing or design. You can find more information about our fabrication services on our website. Here you can request a quotation.

An anti-reflex sheet is only transparent if there is no space between the plexiglass sheet and the product behind the sheet, such as a poster or piece of paper. At a distance greater than 1 cm, the sheet is not transparent, but translucent. Please make sure that there is no space between the two parts otherwise the material is not transparent anymore.
There are two main types of acrylic, cast and extruded acrylic. An advantage of cast acrylic is that it is easy to produce in small quantities, which offers flexibility. Extruded acrylic has the advantage that it hardly knows any thickness tolerance.
Acrylic is optically more pure than polycarbonate. Polycarbonate, on the other hand, is much more impact-resistant than acrylic, but yellows faster.
