DONCHAMP ®️ Repel

Cast Impact Modified, tailored glazing solutions.

DONCHAMP® Repel cast acrylic sheet has an increased impact resistance to standard cast acrylic, to meet with the requirements of general impact glazing. DONCHAMP® Repel is a specially developed acrylic grade, which has a high surface finish, unique strength & impact resistance (Tensile Strength 5mm – 65.4 Mpa – ASTM D638), good optical properties, high mechanical properties & rigidity, simple to fabricate (cut, bend & polish) whilst enhancing the cosmetic appearance of any architectural feature. DONCHAMP® Repel has a further advantage in it is easy thermoforming/moulding characteristics, enabling high mould definition, with quicker production cycle times, further increasing productivity, with approx. 15% lower energy consumption and reduced manufacturing defects. As mentioned DONCHAMP® Repel has shorter production cycles due to reduced heating times & with the further advantage of the forming temperature also being lower. DONCHAMP® Repel has a denser solid surface of any thermoplastic, enabling it to be easy to clean. DONCHAMP® Repel – the choice for impact resistance applications:
