An acrylic sheet Bunnings is a flat, durable panel made of acrylic (also known as Perspex) sold at Bunnings Australia. It serves as a versatile alternative to glass for a variety of home, DIY, and commercial projects. In simple terms, it is lightweight, strong, and visually clear, making it perfect for everything from protective barriers to decorative installations. The main reason Australians love these sheets is their clarity, impact resistance, and ease of use, which makes them ideal for indoor and outdoor applications alike.
Bunnings offers acrylic sheets in multiple types, ensuring you can find the perfect panel for your project:

Selecting the right acrylic sheet depends on your project type, location, and aesthetic goals. Here’s an actionable guide:
Protective glazing, desk covers, or furniture inserts → clear sheets
Decorative panels or privacy features → coloured or mirrored sheets
Thinner sheets (3mm) are easy to cut and lightweight

Outdoor projects require UV-resistant acrylic to prevent yellowing and maintain clarity
