Collection: Coloured acrylic

Coloured acrylic for laser cutting

Coloured acrylic for laser cutting is the collection for colour, effect, and finish within the broad Acrylic collection. Use this page when you already know that the final result shouldn't just be clear and transparent, but needs colour, light diffusion, reflection, a matte appearance, or a specific letter colour.

Colour as the primary choice

Coloured acrylic is the basic choice for coloured sheets. Tinted acrylic combines transparency with colour. White acrylic and Black acrylic are logical choices when the sheet needs to be clean, opaque, or high-contrast. Within this group, you first choose based on appearance: solid colour, transparent tint, light diffusion, reflection, matte finish, or signage colour.

Comparing effect variants

Opal acrylic has a semi-transparent, milky appearance and subtly diffuses light. Mirror acrylic consists of a transparent acrylic base with a reflective coating on one side. Fluorescent acrylic is coloured throughout and makes edges glow strikingly. Matte acrylic and the satin variants feature a fine matte finish for reduced glare. Acrysign is an opaque PMMA sheet with one matte and one glossy side, geared towards lettering, POS materials, and branding.

When to return to the broad Acrylic collection?

Return to Acrylic when you are still deciding between clear transparent, XT, coloured, opal, mirror, matte, or Acrysign. This page is particularly useful once colour or effect is your main choice. If you are looking for non-PMMA plastics such as Mylar film, PET-G, or PET felt, go to Plastics & films.

Common applications

Coloured acrylic is often considered for signage, displays, decorative parts, personalization, labels, interior details, and presentation materials. Use the collection to choose the effect, then go to the product for exact colours, thicknesses, and sizes. For small colour and effect tests, Sample bundles are a logical next step.

Ordering by effect

First determine what the material needs to do visually: show colour, soften light, reflect, reduce glare, make edges glow, or form letters. Then choose the appropriate product and view the available variants.
