Work we have done

• Display case with base in 4 mm clear acrylic, on a 10 mm base machined so the cover slots in: protection for scale models and any item worth preserving.
• Hot-bent box in 3 mm clear acrylic, 275 × 275 × 130 mm, for Kubident, equally suited to laboratories, confectionery or cosmetics, in whatever size the client needs.
• Ballot boxes with clear hinges, a slot and tabs for a padlock.
• Suggestion boxes and foundation-stone boxes, which can be personalised with a logo or corporate identity.
• Protective cover for an award for La Rinconada Town Council.
• Bespoke showcases made to the client’s design.

Why acrylic is the best material for display cases and showcases

• 93 % transparency: the object looks as if nothing were in front of it.
• Strength: it withstands knocks far better than glass and weighs about half as much, so the case is easy to move.
• Protection: it resists UV radiation and weathering and does not yellow, so it protects valuable pieces in museums and touring exhibitions.
• Thermal and acoustic insulation.
• It can be machined and moulded to suit any design.
