Why choose acrylic mirrors over glass?

Safety

One of the primary advantages of acrylic mirrors is their enhanced safety features. Unlike glass mirrors, acrylic mirrors are shatter resistant, which significantly reduces the risk of injury in case of accidental impact or breakage. This property makes them ideal for spaces where physical activity is intense, and the possibility of equipment or people colliding with mirrors is higher, such as in gyms.

Safety is also an important aspect where children are present which is why our childsafe mirrors are the perfect solution in schools, nurseries and children's bedrooms.

Lightweight and Easy to Install

Acrylic mirrors are much lighter than glass mirrors, making them easier to handle and install. Their lightweight nature simplifies the installation process and reduces the need for heavy-duty hardware. This allows for more flexibility in placement options and makes acrylic mirrors a convenient choice for DIY enthusiasts. The fact that they are less likely to break in transit or during the installation process means they are more cost-effective than glass mirrors which may need replacing before installation.

Versatility

Acrylic mirrors offer versatility in terms of design and customisation. They can be easily cut into various shapes and sizes compared to glass, allowing for creative and unique applications. Acrylic mirrors are available in different colours and finishes making it possible to create custom designs or incorporate them into artistic projects or your home decor. Our pebble mirrors are available in silver, rose gold, smoke grey and gold to complement all decors.

Outdoor Use

Acrylic mirrors are also suitable for outdoor applications. They are resistant to weather conditions and UV radiation, making them an excellent choice for outdoor decorations, garden mirrors, or architectural installations. Acrylic mirrors can withstand exposure to sunlight without fading or deteriorating, unlike glass.

Cost Effective

Acrylic mirrors are generally more affordable than traditional glass mirrors, making them a cost-effective option for individuals or businesses with budget constraints. They offer similar reflective properties to glass mirrors while providing additional advantages, making them a practical choice for those seeking value for money.

Buying and Installing Mirrored Acrylic Sheets

When buying and installing our mirrored acrylic sheets, we recommend the following steps to achieve the best results:

1. Thickness and Sizing Recommendations: For larger mirrors (such as over 1000mm in width or length), there is a higher chance of a distorted image being reflected. We recommend opting for the 5mm thickness silver mirror to minimise image distortion as a thicker acrylic reduces the flexibility.

2. Backing Material: Ensure that the surface you are applying the mirrored acrylic to is flat and even. For optimal results, especially with larger mirrors, it is crucial to back the acrylic mirror onto a hard board, such as 18mm MDF backing (which we can cut to size too!). This provides stability and helps reduce image distortion.

3. Check Your Mirrored Acrylic Sheet: All our mirrored acrylic sheets come with a protective film on the front side. Remove this film before installation to inspect the product for any damages. Note that we cannot offer refunds or replacements for installed products, so please check thoroughly before proceeding to install.

4. Adhesive: We recommend using our all-in-one non-solvent adhesive for installation. Make sure to apply the adhesive evenly to the surface using a roller for a secure fit. While this method is the most common and provides a smooth, professional finish, you can also use an appropriate drill bit for mechanical fixing if preferred.

5. Professional Installation: If you're uncertain about the installation process, we strongly recommend hiring a trained professional to ensure a high-quality reflection and secure installation.

Please Note: Some degree of distortion may still occur due to the flexible nature of acrylic mirrors. This is not a manufacturing defect but an inherent characteristic of the material. Please keep in mind that your purchase includes the mirrored acrylic only, without a frame or mount.

100% recyclable logo

100% Recyclable

Perspex® Acrylic is 100% recyclable. Waste products can readily be recovered from the original raw material (the monomer) and re-used in a new sheet.

Perspex® has been manufactured in the UK for over 85 years and still takes place on the same site in Lancashire as it did in the 1930s. This short supply distance to our UK customers helps reduce ‘product miles’ from the manufacturing plant to the end user.

Numerous different investments have already been made by Perspex® to lessen the impact on the environment. Annual waste consumption has been reduced by 24 million litres, and almost 800 tonnes of carbon dioxide have been saved every year as part of a hot water recycling project. At Cut My, we work to be more sustainable by using all of our offcuts to heat our manufacturing facility. We are also currently working towards reducing our packaging.
