Frequently Asked Questions​

What are PETG sheets?

PETG sheets are clear thermoplastic polyester sheets known for high impact resistance, good chemical resistance, and easy fabrication. They are commonly used as a tougher alternative to acrylic where durability and thermoforming are required.

What are PETG sheets used for?

PETG sheets are used for machine guards, sneeze guards, point-of-sale displays, food covers, protective screens, signage, and thermoformed components. They suit applications needing clarity, toughness, and ease of fabrication.

Is PETG impact resistant?

Yes. PETG is significantly more impact resistant than acrylic and will flex rather than shatter under load. This makes it suitable for safety screens, guards, and high-traffic environments.

How does PETG compare to acrylic?

PETG is more impact resistant and less brittle than acrylic but slightly softer and less scratch resistant. Acrylic has better optical clarity and surface hardness, while PETG is easier to bend, drill, and thermoform without cracking.

Are PETG sheets UV resistant?

Standard PETG has limited UV resistance and may yellow over time outdoors. For outdoor applications, UV-stabilised PETG or alternative materials like polycarbonate or acrylic are usually recommended.
