ALTUGLAS™ Solutions
ALTUGLAS™ Blocks - PMMA blocks offer more advantages compared to other materials in terms of aesthetics, fabrication and maintenance. ALTUGLAS™ blocks require a single manufacturing step, unlike other materials which require multiple steps, thus generating cost and time savings.
Compared to solutions where PMMA is used only as a cover, ALTUGLAS™ Blocks are not affected by temperature variation, meaning they need less maintenance and cleaning to remove dirt and humidity that would otherwise accumulate.
Advantages of Using ALTUGLAS™ PMMA Blocks
- One material, no gluing required, leading to simplified fabrication
- No corner shadow effects due to homogeneous light diffusion
- Lower energy requirement due to need to use fewer or less bright LEDs
- Ideal for shapes of all sizes including small dimensions
- Easy disassembly, enabling fewer maintenance requirements
- Available in wide range of thicknesses (30 to 90 mm) colors
