Ehren-Haus specializes in custom acrylic fabrication and machining services. Owing to our industry experience, well-equipped facility, and in-depth understanding of plastic fabrication processes, our clients usually approach us for complex custom acrylic plastic sheet fabrication projects. We assure one of the fastest turnaround times in the industry.
Acrylic “represents a family of petroleum-based thermoplastics made from the derivation of natural gas. This material is made from Methyl Methacrylate (MMA), Poly Methyl Methacrylate, or a combination of both.” It is also known as Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMC). Plastics assure affordability, durability, and versatility, which is why they are preferred over metals. Today, different types of plastics are used for industrial and commercial applications and acrylic is one of them. This plastic is suited for applications that demand mechanical strength, durability, stiffness, optical clarity, etc. All these properties are offered by acrylic material. A vast number of items can be molded and machined out of acrylic. During plexiglass or acrylic fabrication, we work with a variety of Acrylics.
We can take up projects of any size from prototype to full-scale production. We are passionate about technologies and trends that have helped us build a well-equipped facility. This facility also allows us to assure precision and the fastest turnaround times in the industry.
| What is Our Process?
We accept designs for your plastic parts in IGS, CAD, and DXF formats. The designs are analyzed and discussed with the client for clarity. Any design changes are suggested in the initial stages. The prototype building begins after seeking their approval. |

Custom acrylic fabrication services involve manufacturing a product according to specific client requirements. Therefore, we implement advanced plastic fabrication technologies for product customization. We employ the following techniques as a part of our custom acrylic sheet fabrication services.
Vacuum forming method is one of the extensive manufacturing processes we involve in our acrylic plastic sheet fabrication. By using vacuum forming, we are capable of manufacturing, intricate shapes, and thin wall products.
Casting is performed as a part of custom acrylic plastic fabrication. By using this technique, we are capable of manufacturing acrylic products with multiple gateways, cavity portions, and intricate parts.
Cutting to size alone or to prepare the sheet for additional processes is done with care and attention to the edge quality left behind. Cut too quick and chips show up – cut to slow and it begins to gum up. It’s a perfect rate that must be executed.
Some acrylic products require precise and logical design. It is done using computer-aided drawing (CAD) 3D modeling. From conceptualization to design, tool building, machine selection to manufacturing, everything is performed in-house.
Mold making is one of the most important processes in plastic manufacturing. We design soft casting molds for plastic applications.
As we deal with several grades of acrylic plastics, we utilize bonding/fusing/annealing techniques to form required material compositions. We are capable of customizing material according to production requirements by fusing and heat-treating several grades of acrylic.
We are capable of performing acrylic CNC plastic machining for manufacturing complex yet dimensionally precise products.
As a part of acrylic plastic sheet fabrication, we perform CNC routing for cutting, shaping, curvature filleting, corner filleting, polishing, etc.
Flame polishing, buffing, solvent and diamond polishing are all techniques we use to polish acrylic.
To achieve the end result, techniques of bending acrylic sheet may be required across the sheet or in 1 or multiple places. Bends can be narrow or very wide and anything in between.
Acrylic sometimes referred to as Plexi or Plexiglas, Lucite. Generic term is acrylic. Cast or extruded.. refers to the technology used to produce the sheets. TYPES Anti microbial, anti-static, mirrored, light-diffusing, non-glare, colored, abrasion resistant, impact modified and even textured.
It is the most commonly used acrylic sheet that offers transparency and good moldability.
This acrylic sheet offers excellent UV protection. For products exposed to sun frames of the solar panel are made of this sheet.
This acrylic sheet is preferable when products with unusual dimensions are to be manufactured. LED fixtures are made out of this sheet.
Abrasion Resistant Acrylic Sheets It offers high abrasion resistance, therefore products for marine and chemical industries are made of this sheet.
This acrylic sheet is used to help with branding and making good backgrounds. POP displays used colored sheets to add pizazz, with black being used to control background.
It offers immense mechanical strength therefore is used for heavy-duty device manufacturing.
We have worked with the following industries so far.

The benefits of lucite or acrylic fabrication stem from its properties and techniques that we use during custom acrylic plastic fabrication:
Our acrylic plastic sheet fabrication process offers customizability by using precise mold making and fabrication processes. Along with advanced plastic fabrication processes, we utilize additional machining processes like drilling, turning, surface modification, etc. This helps in adding any custom feature demanded by the customer.
Acrylic is compatible with several manufacturing processes. From basic lathe processing to CNC manufacturing, almost all possible fabrication processes can be used in acrylic product manufacturing.
The acrylic possesses a high density between 86.8-89.3 kg/m3. Due to a strong cohesive molecular bonding force, acrylic offers high strength and durability. Also, acrylic offers high strength to weight ratio due to high strength and lightweight. Therefore, acrylic products offer a lightweight yet high impact strength.
The Acrylic sheet possesses glass-like properties, as it exhibits excellent clarity and transparency. The acrylic sheet weighs half and has high impact resistance. This is why it is used in a variety of displays, fixtures, and shelves.
