What Makes Our Acrylic Splashbacks Different?
Unlike many standard acrylic splashbacks on the market, our premium acrylic splashbacks are manufactured with the colour layer fully encased between two sheets of high-quality acrylic sheeting. This process helps protect the finish from wear, moisture, and fading while creating exceptional depth, clarity, and colour vibrancy.
Each splashback also features a specialist light-blocking rear vinyl layer, which enhances colour consistency, improves opacity, and increases the longevity of the overall finish.
This advanced manufacturing process creates a more premium appearance compared to basic painted or rear-sprayed acrylic splashbacks.
