The white and black polystyrene sheets that we have on offer do not have any protective film. Because PS has a static charge that attracts a lot of dust, it can be that small sheets (custom cuts) may be slightly scratched upon delivery. This is especially noticeable in the case of the dark sheets. The term “impact resistant” when applied to polystyrene only means that the type we offer is more resistant to impact than the simpler polystyrene used for packing purposes. Because polystyrene is so easy to work with, it is the perfect model making material. With this in mind, a large amount of semi-finished products are made from PS and offered for sale: strips, profiles, textured sheets, tubes. All of these semi-finished products lend themselves marvellously to cutting and gluing.Polystyrene sheets are often employed as an overlay on the tops of work tables. It is advisable not to glue down the entire surface of the sheet so that it can be replaced more easily when necessary. It is also a good idea to use at least a 1.5 mm thick sheet in such cases because the heat emanating from a worklamp hovering close over the surface will cause a thinner sheet to bubble up and bulge. Polystyrene should not be employed in the outdoors because it is not UV resistant: it will become brittle and bleach out. For jobs requiring better weathering properties we recommend FOREX. Because it accepts printing so well, white and coloured polystyrene are very often used in making business cards, signs and displays. These polystyrene sheets have a fine smooth surface with metallic colours. Because they look so real and are so easy to work with, they make a great alternative to real metal, especially stainless steel. In addition, unlike most polystyrene, it is insensitive to moisture and can therefore be used in bathrooms or other rooms subject to moisture. This product corresponds to the construction material class B2 (German norm), i.e. normal inflammability, which means that it can not be used in public spaces or exhibition rooms without prior consultation with the proper authorities. This metallic coloured polystyrene was specially designed for indoor use and has an large number of uses: for decorative panelling on walls, furniture or pedestals; in stores and trade show constructions; as a background for high quality presentations, etc.
Polystyrene Metallic in the size 1000 x 2600 as well as in a flame resistant version; more thicknesses and surfaces with various textures and patterns in the 1000 x 2600 size (large orders only).
