Northbrook, IL -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/26/2018 -- Cast acrylic sheets are used in sanitary wares, signage & displays, architectural designs, interior design, automotive & transportation, and other applications. Other applications include food, medical, industrial equipment, and sports. Cast acrylic sheets are used as a cost-efficient substitute for materials such as glass, wood, ceramic, and metal in these applications. The focus on reducing the weight of products is fueling the growth of the cast acrylic sheets market.

The cell cast acrylic sheet is projected to be the largest type segment of the cast acrylic sheets market from 2017 to 2022.

Cell cast is the oldest and most expensive method of producing acrylic sheets. The cell cast acrylic sheet segment accounted for the largest share of the overall cast acrylic sheets market in 2016. Investments and the cost of equipment used for the production of cell cast acrylic sheets are less than extruded cast sheets and continuous cast sheets. However, the overall cost of cell cast acrylic sheets is higher than continuous cast acrylic sheets, as it is a labor-intensive process. This factor is responsible for the high market share of the cell cast acrylic sheet type segment.

APAC is the largest market for cast acrylic sheets, and this trend is expected to continue till 2022. China and India are the key markets in the region, contributing to more than half of the total demand for cast acrylic sheets in APAC.
