Description
This premium 100% recycled acrylic sheet in Yellow 72314 offers a high-quality, sustainable alternative to standard virgin acrylic, without compromising on clarity, colour consistency or performance. Manufactured entirely from recycled acrylic, it delivers the strength, rigidity and visual impact required for demanding engineering, fabrication and display applications.
Designed for both indoor and outdoor use, this UV-resistant sheet maintains its bright yellow colour and surface quality even when exposed to sunlight. With excellent machining, laser-cutting and thermoforming characteristics, it is ideal for signmaking, point-of-sale displays, safety guards, protective panels and a wide range of engineered plastic components.
Product Features
- Premium 100% recycled acrylic construction for a more sustainable specification choice.
- Striking Yellow 72314 colour for high visibility, branding and safety-critical applications.
- Excellent UV resistance to help prevent yellowing, fading or loss of performance outdoors.
- Supplied in a 5 mm sheet thickness, offering a robust balance of rigidity and workability.
- Generous standard sheet size of 3050 mm length x 2030 mm width to maximise yield and minimise offcuts.
- High-performance fabrication properties suitable for cutting, drilling, polishing, bonding and thermoforming.
- Good impact and weather resistance compared with many other transparent and coloured plastics.
Key Features and Benefits
- Helps reduce environmental impact by using 100% recycled acrylic material instead of virgin stock.
- Bright yellow colour enhances visibility for safety signage, guarding and wayfinding installations.
- UV-stable formulation supports long-term outdoor use, lowering maintenance and replacement frequency.
- Excellent machinability allows precise cutting, profiling and finishing using standard plastic fabrication tools.
- Thermoformable and suitable for bending, routing and polishing, giving designers and fabricators wide creative freedom.
- Rigid yet relatively lightweight sheet simplifies handling, transport and installation on site.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this yellow acrylic sheet suitable for outdoor use over the long term?
Yes. The sheet incorporates UV-resistant properties to help maintain its colour and mechanical performance when used outdoors. As with all plastics, actual service life will depend on installation, exposure levels and maintenance, but it is designed for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Can the 100% recycled acrylic sheet be cut and drilled with standard tools?
Yes. The sheet can be cut, drilled and machined using tools suitable for acrylic, such as panel saws with fine-toothed blades, routers and drill bits designed for plastics. Using sharp tools and appropriate feed rates will help achieve clean edges and minimise the risk of chipping.
Is 5 mm thickness strong enough for protective screens and guards?
For many protective screen, guard and panel applications, 5 mm acrylic provides a good balance of rigidity and weight. However, suitability depends on the size of the panel, mounting method and loading conditions, so it is important to check your design requirements and, if necessary, consult an engineer for critical safety installations.
