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.
Mirrored polystyrene is a reasonably priced and easy to work with alternative to mirrored glass or acrylic. The squares making up this material were achieved by placing a sheet of mirror polystyrene on one side of a two-sided adhesive film and then cutting the individual squares. In this way the material loses all cohesion but gains a great deal of flexibility. Attributes: The quality of the product on offer corresponds to the German construction material class B2 – normal combustibility - and it is therefore not allowed to be used in public buildings or exhibitions. Uses: The self-adhesive reverse side together with the flexibility of the textured polystyrene mirror strips make them ideal for facing material on rounded surfaces such as columns or the like. It is mostly used for decoration, interior decoration, jewellery design and handicrafts purposes.
bigger sizes, more colours with various surfaces, textures and patterns (brushed, mottled, marbled, dotted…) are available but only in larger amounts.
