Bought the Acrylic sheets for my daughter's greenhouse as she didn't want glass as she has young children. Not sure whether 2mm will last the winter but was certainly easier to fix than glass.

Great company, good product, no complaint’s
Great company to deal with, worked with my request to cut one vertical narrower than the rest so I could avoid cutting round a light switch.
Product received well packaged and primed as order.
I used a brad nailer to pin the panels directly to the wall avoiding using adhesive in case I ever want to remove.
Did 2x feature walls in bedrooms, behind headboards and both rooms look great.
