PERSPEX® VA/VE Gallery Grade

Description PERSPEX® VA/VE are specialist grades of genuine PERSPEX® cast acrylic engineered with built-in UV-absorbing properties for high-performance glazing and display applications. These acrylic sheets combine the trusted durability, optical quality, and ease of fabrication of standard PERSPEX® with enhanced UV protection, making them ideal where protection from ultraviolet light is essential. Two variants are available: PERSPEX® VA – a colourless UV-absorbing acrylic that offers maximum optical clarity while still filtering harmful UV radiation, ideal for picture frames, artwork glazing, and applications requiring true-to-life colour viewing with protection. PERSPEX® VE – a slightly tinted acrylic with a higher UV-blocking capacity that absorbs up to 99.99% of UV light below 400 nm, tailored for safeguarding highly sensitive exhibits or artefacts from UV damage. Both VA and VE maintain excellent surface quality, weather resistance, and long-term performance. They are easy to cut, shape, drill, and machine, and are supplied with protective film to keep surfaces pristine during fabrication. Common applications: protective glazing for art and heritage displays, museum cases, internal and external windows, retail displays, architectural panels, shopfitting features, and other environments where UV protection and optical clarity are priorities.
