Using Acrylic in the Office, Home and Garden Adds Style and Panache. 

 

Moriah Plastics is a leading South African company specializing in the design and manufacture of custom acrylic architectural features and display solutions. Our expertise lies in working with acrylic materials such as Perspex and Plexiglas, which are thermoplastics made from polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA).

 

These materials are prized in architecture and retail display for their versatility, durability, and aesthetic appeal.

 

Acrylic Architecture at Moriah Plastics

 

We use acrylic extensively to create modern architectural and landscaping elements, including garden sculpting and planters. Acrylic offers a lightweight, shatter-resistant alternative to traditional materials like glass, metal, and wood. It can be produced in various colors, finishes, and thicknesses, allowing for highly customizable and visually striking designs that are also structurally sound.

 

At Moriah Plastics, we leverage advanced fabrication techniques such as CNC laser cutting and router cutting to achieve precision and intricate designs. This technology enables us to cut acrylic sheets to exact sizes and shapes, which are then polished to a smooth, clear finish. The sheets are joined using methods like solvent bonding, mechanical fastening, or thermal welding depending on the project’s requirements. Additionally, acrylic can be thermoformed by heating and bending it into complex shapes, allowing for creative architectural forms.

 

Customization and Finishing

 

Beyond basic fabrication, we offer extensive customization options. We can print graphics or text directly onto acrylic surfaces using UV flatbed printing and incorporate LED lighting to enhance visual appeal. These finishing touches add an extra layer of sophistication and help architectural features and displays stand out.

 

Applications and Industries Served

 

We serve a broad range of sectors, including retail, corporate offices, museums, galleries, exhibitions, hospitality, healthcare, education, and local authorities. Our architectural acrylic products are often integrated into retail merchandising, point-of-purchase displays, signage, kiosks, and interactive stands. This versatility makes us a preferred partner for businesses seeking innovative solutions to showcase products and enhance customer engagement.

 

Commitment to Quality and Sustainability

 

We source premium-grade acrylic materials, with about 80% of our stock being high-quality PLEXIGLAS®, which comes with warranties for durability and UV resistance to prevent yellowing when exposed to sunlight. At Moriah Plastics, we emphasize precision, craftsmanship, and the use of appropriate adhesives and solvents to maintain the integrity and longevity of our products. Our processes are designed to meet high standards of quality and customer satisfaction.

Moreover, by working with recyclable thermoplastic materials like Perspex, we contribute to environmentally conscious manufacturing practices. Our modular designs also promote reusability, reducing waste in retail and architectural environments.
