3A Composites’ new product range made of 95 percent recycled materials

3A Composites has announced a new product range made from recycled PMMA. The newly launched AKRYLON re, CRYLON re re and PERSPEX XT re extruded acrylic sheets comprise at least 95 percent recycled materials from PMMA sheet waste. Available in clear transparent as well as in black and white opaque versions, the range comes in different thicknesses and offers the same properties as conventionally manufactured extruded acrylic sheets.

By using recycled PMMA in the production, the amount of new materials required can be significantly reduced. This makes a valuable contribution to lowering carbon emissions and avoiding waste. Characteristics of the new printing materials include lighter than glass; good optical properties; very good resistance to weathering and ageing; easy to process and ideal for a wide range of interior and exterior applications.
