Acrylic / PMMA (Polymethyl Methacrylate)

Recplas is a specialist recycler of Acrylic which we purchase from scrap dealers and factories across Europe.

Our high proportion of re-use of PMMA allows us to offer superior prices and a lower environmental footprint.

You will know PMMA (Acrylic) under many brand names including Plexiglas, Lucite, Perspex and Acrylite, Altuglas (Arkema) and Optix (Plaskolite).

Applications and uses of Acrylic / PMMA

Common uses of PMMA are:

Sign and display – CNC offcuts, sheet scrap, redundant signs etc. (we buy with or without LDPE)
Retail point of display hardware – shelving etc. – boxed, palletised, shredded or granulated
Pipe, tube, sheet offcuts and swarf
Car light covers / lenses – loose granulated, baled etc.
Optical lenses – granulated shredded or baled

PMMA is mostly used in the form of extruded sheet where it dominates the sign and display industry.

Most of the PMMA we handle is derived from UK and European sign-makers and POS equipment producers.

Common Acrylic / PMMA contamination issues

We will buy your Acrylic with or without the protective LDPE film still attached. PMMA is used alongside, and often mixed with, PET and clear PVC, but please try not to mix it as this will affect its high value.
