Customization
Custom sheets & parts to meet the needs of your applications.
Build your own sheets! Do you have a unique design requirement that cannot be met with off-the-shelf acrylic sheets? The CLAREX sheets can be fully customized and produced in low volumes up to mass production. Choose the thickness, formulation, additives, color dye/pigments, surface textures, surface coatings, and optical coatings for your custom material configuration, and we can typically have it ready for you in 4-8 weeks. We can even fabricate the finished parts for you.
