3mm Acrylic Panels for Professional Displays
3mm acrylic is a light, tough and transparent sheet material which is safer than glass. Often called Perspex(r) 3mm Acrylic is a high gloss, transparent thermoplastic alternative to glass. It is the minimum thickness for rigid acrylic signage; its slim, modern profile is ideal for indoor wall plaques, wayfinding slats, and high-definition photographic mounts.
At The Board Printing Company, we turn this versatile material into visual assets. Printing your image on the back of a clear 3mm perspex sheet protects the ink behind the plastic, giving the final image depth and gloss that makes colours pop. Whether you need a single “Meet the Team” board or a set of directional signage for a hospital, our industrial flatbed printers and laser cutters deliver crisp results every time.
Overview: 3mm Acrylic Printing at a Glance
- Material: Cast Acrylic, available in Clear, White, or Opal.
- Optical Clarity: Superior to glass, transmitting 92% of light for vibrant, high-contrast visuals.
- Strength: 30 times stronger than glass but less than half the weight.
- Printing Method: Direct UV printing (often with White Ink backup) for rich, opaque colours.
- Finishes: Diamond-polished edges for a glass-smooth rim; Drilled holes or “Stand-off” fixings.
Why Choose 3mm Perspex? The Modern Glass Alternative
While glass is the traditional material for high-end signage, 3mm acrylic has taken its place in virtually all commercial applications today. Here is why:
- Clarity & Depth: Reverse printing onto 3mm perspex allows the image to be viewed through the material, creating depth and a high-gloss finish with rich colour and contrast.
- Shatter-Safe: Unlike glass, 3mm acrylic does not break into sharp shards if dropped or knocked, making it suitable for schools, gyms, and public spaces.
- Lightweight Installation: Its low weight allows fixing with stand-off locators, creating a floating effect without the load issues associated with glass.
- Weather Resistant: UV-stabilised and waterproof, 3mm perspex will not yellow or degrade outdoors when installed correctly.
3mm Perspex is one of the most popular materials for premium acrylic signs, combining a glass-like finish with improved safety, durability, and ease of installation.
Common Applications of 3mm Acrylic Printing
Our 3mm acrylic printing services are the gold standard for businesses wanting to make a sophisticated impression:
- Corporate Branding: We print company logos and mission statements onto clear acrylic, often backing the text with white ink.
- Retail Point of Sale: Cosmetic counters and jewellery stores use 3mm perspex for product descriptions and pricing stands.
- Exhibition Panels: For trade shows at Olympia or ExCeL, exhibitors use printed acrylic panels to overlay graphics on their stands.
- Home Interiors: Unlike a canvas, which absorbs ink and looks textured, acrylic makes the photo look like a high-definition screen.
To explore how acrylic performs across different environments, from retail to corporate interiors, read our guide on the different applications of acrylic printing.
