Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Sheets, Bars, and Strips
In addition to having a low-friction surface that prevents sticking and binding, this tough, impact- and wear-resistant material handles the scuffs, scrapes, and strikes that other plastics can’t. These sheets, bars, and strips are often used to make machine guards and chute liners. They are all FDA compliant for direct food contact.
If you don't see the size of white sheet you're looking for, please specify length and width under additional white sheet sizes.

Clear Scratch- and UV-Resistant Cast Acrylic Sheets, Bars, and Cubes
These cast acrylic sheets, bars, and cubes are often fabricated into tanks, see-through barrier panels, and light fixture lenses. Cast acrylic, which is comparable to Lucite and Plexiglas® Acrylic, is easier to machine than extruded acrylic. This material is scratch and UV resistant; it stands up to outdoor use better than polycarbonate and maintains clarity over time.
