Acrylic Sheets in Sydney

Sydney is the busiest acrylic market in the country - sign shops in Alexandria, fabricators in Smithfield and aquarium builders along the Northern Beaches all run through the same two or three distributors.

Sydney is the busiest acrylic market in the country - sign shops in Alexandria, fabricators in Smithfield and aquarium builders along the Northern Beaches all run through the same two or three distributors. We ship cast and extruded acrylic factory-direct into Sydney by sea, landing pallets at Port Botany and trucking them to your workshop within 48 hours of clearance.

Most Sydney jobs that come through us are signage, retail fitouts (the Pitt Street and Westfield rolling refits are a steady flow), and edge-lit display work for trade-show fabricators in the inner west. We hold a small float of 2440×1220 mm cast clear in 3, 5 and 8 mm to bridge short-lead jobs while a customer's main order is on the water.

FAQs

Acrylic in Sydney - FAQs

What Sydney buyers most often ask about acrylic.

Both. We keep a small Sydney bridging stock of 3 mm, 5 mm and 8 mm clear cast for jobs that can't wait. Anything bigger or coloured is brought in on our shared inbound containers - landed in 4–6 weeks at near-mill pricing.
Yes. CNC routing, laser cutting and flame polishing are all done at the mill before crating. Sydney customers typically save another 15–20% in labour by getting parts cut at source rather than re-cutting after delivery.
There is no hard minimum - our container-share model lets a single fabricator buy as little as half a pallet. For full-pallet quantities (around 40 sheets of 5 mm) we land prices comparable to a wholesale account.
