Material Check

Did you know that PLEXIGLAS® is non-porous?

PLEXIGLAS® impresses not only with its optical brilliance and versatility, but also with a material property that is often underestimated: its surface is non-porous. This means that dirt, moisture and microorganisms can hardly penetrate the material. The result is a particularly durable, low-maintenance and resistant surface – ideal for a wide range of indoor and outdoor applications.

Durability thanks to a non-porous material structure

Unlike many other materials, PLEXIGLAS® has a closed, non-porous surface. This means that neither moisture nor dirt can penetrate deep into the material.

This structure ensures that surfaces remain stable over time and makes it much harder for deposits to build up. At the same time, the high-quality appearance is preserved even over longer periods.

Frost-resistant – ideal for outdoor applications

Many materials can be damaged by frost when used outdoors. If water penetrates small pores and freezes at low temperatures, cracks or material damage may occur.

Thanks to the non-porous structure of PLEXIGLAS®, water cannot penetrate the material. As a result, the material remains stable and durable even in frost – a clear advantage for outdoor applications.

Fewer stains and reduced algae formation

PLEXIGLAS® also offers clear advantages when it comes to care and cleaning. Since moisture and dirt can hardly penetrate the surface, fewer stubborn stains occur.

At the same time, the closed surface reduces the formation of algae and other organic deposits – especially in outdoor environments.

Who is this property particularly relevant for?

The durable and low-maintenance properties of PLEXIGLAS® make the material suitable for many different applications.
