Polyester: PETG Sheet
PETG is a clear transparent sheet made from thermoplastic polyester. It is one of the most respected and trusted plastic sheets around. It offers extreme clarity and light transmission in combination with a high gloss surface finish.
PETG sheets have very good impact resistance, even at low temperatures, and are approved for food contact applications. PETG sheet has outstanding thermoforming properties, combining low energy consumption, short production cycles, extreme draw ratios and good mould reproduction without the need for pre-drying.
PETG is easy to screen print, and offers ease of fabrication.
PETG sheets are easy to print, making it ideal for advertising and signage industry. It is a versatile material and can be used for a number of different applications including glazing, sign making, displays, protective screens thanks to its impact resistance e.g. motorcycle screens. UV resistant grades of PETG are available for outdoor applications requiring protection against weathering effects.
PETG can also be fabricated using a number of techniques such as vacuum forming, hot and cold line bending, drilling and milling. PETG sheet is available cut to size.
