Acrylic Display Cases
Acrylic display cases are made of a clear,
synthetic material like plastic. Acrylic display cases are more
widely used than glass cases since they have many advantages over
glass display cases. Acrylic cases are lighter and sturdier. Acrylic
is more flexible than glass, so there is less of a chance that
acrylic display cases will break. While glass shatters into sharp
fragments, acrylic forms larger, harmless fragments if it does
break. The corners of acrylic display cases are rounded to make them
safe for children. Acrylic can be shaped and cut like wood, so it is
easily customized to make display cases of different shapes and
sizes.
Technology has overcome most of the drawbacks associated with
acrylic display cases. For example, specialized UV treatment ensures
that acrylic cases don’t turn yellow on prolonged exposure to
sunlight. Beveled and flame treated acrylic cases have a smooth,
clear glassy look. Minor scratches on the surface of acrylic display
cases can be polished away easily. The corners and seams of acrylic
display cases can be sealed to make them airtight. Also, acrylic
cases can be shipped in parts and assembled by the customer herself,
reducing purchase and transportation costs.
Large cabinets and display cases made from acrylic don’t need a
wooden or metallic frame for support. This allows in more light and
facilitates a clearer view of the collectible. The standard width of
an acrylic sheet used in making display cases is about 1/8th of an
inch, leaving more room inside and outside the case.
Acrylic display cases like stands, racks, wall mounts, holders,
risers, plate displays, and rotating cases are used to present
footwear, brochures, apparel, watches, food items, eyewear, and
cosmetics in stores. In homes, dome, box, and octagon-shaped acrylic
cases are used for trophies, die casts, books, gifts and ornament
display.
Acrylic display cases are popular because of their durability,
versatility, and easy maintenance. They are easy to transport and
easy on the wallet, but most importantly, they can brighten up any
small corner or wall space through their beauty.
