Product Description
Thermoforming PET sheet is well suited for vacuum forming and fabrication, has high impact strength, and is a cost-effective alternative to acrylic in some cases. It has good chemical resistance, clarity, transparency, and gloss and is FDA/BGA certified. APET is also easy to recycle.
• Good impact resistance
• Allows for rigid thermoforming cycle times
• Die cuts/punches easily
• Low forming temperature
• Printable
• Chemical resistant
• Self-extinguishing
