How it behaves in production

Rigid cast acrylic, 2mm — thick enough that the polished EDGE reads as a bright band of light. The edge is the luxury signal.
Laser engraving frosts the surface to a milky white mark; there is no ink in an engraved area.
Never render as a thin flexible card — acrylic does not bend.

Common questions

Is Clear acrylic dyed through?: No. Clear acrylic is not a dyed-through sheet, so a cut edge will not match the printed face. If you need a coloured edge on this stock we add painted edging as a separate operation.
Can you letterpress on Clear acrylic?: We do not recommend letterpress on Clear acrylic. For light type on this stock we use foil stamping instead, which is opaque and sits cleanly on the surface.
What weights do you stock Clear acrylic in?: Weight on request. Heavier weights can usually be duplexed to order — ask and we will confirm before quoting.
Can I see it before I order?: Yes, and you should. Screens flatten texture and shift colour. We send physical samples of any stock in this directory before you commit.
