PETG is a thermoplastic polyester sheet that is clear and transparent. Compared to acrylic, the biggest advantage of PETG is its durability. Acrylic can crack under even a modest amount of force, and PETG can tolerate a large amount of pressure without breaking. it is also regarded as virtually unbreakable in normal conditions. PETG has applications in a range of industries due to being resistant to heat, impact, and solvents. It is widely used for packaging (both retail and medical), advertising displays and electronic insulators. As one of the largest distributors, fabricators, and suppliers of PETG, acrylic, & many other materials, Orange County Industrial Plastics (OCIP) is a leader in the plastic distribution, fabrication, and POP display industries.
