Using anti-reflective acrylic for your picture frame

Want to hang up your posters or paintings, but those pesky reflections are causing you grief? We’ve got the perfect solution for you: anti-reflective acrylic. This clever material is specifically designed to minimise light reflections. How? By having a unique combination of a matte and glossy side.

Here’s how it works: place your picture snugly against the glossy side and you’re all set! No more troublesome reflections, just crystal-clear images that speak for themselves. And the best part is: this anti-reflective effect doesn’t compromise light transmission. With 92% permeability, your images remain bright and lively.
