The Superior Durability of Plexiglas Acrylic Window Well Covers

Window Bubble Window Well Covers

The durability of Plexiglas Acrylic Window Well Covers – In 1965 E.B. Dilworth was looking to purchase window well covers. He couldn’t find any that met his expectations, so he created his own. Ultimately, E.B. Dilworth’s vision of high-quality, custom-made Plexiglas® Window Bubbles still stands the test of time in today’s market.

What is Plexiglas®? The durability of Plexiglas Acrylic Window Well Covers

A thermoplastic, Plexiglas® is one of the trademark names for a tough transparent acrylic that is also marketed under several other names such as Lucite, Acrylite, Optix, among others. Chemically, acrylic is a synthetic polymer called polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). While Plexiglas® is a registered trademark, plexiglass is a generic term to describe the acrylic material.

Why plexiglass compared to other plastics?

Consider the uses for protective and durable plexiglass acrylic – lenses, medical devices, LCD screens, airplane windows, skylights, shower doors, fish tanks, exhibit enclosures, greenhouses, storefront windows, helmet visors, security barriers, cafeteria food guards, and safety enclosures (think ice hockey rinks) to name only a fraction of uses.

Now, consider why Plexiglas® is the perfect material to use in the manufacture of window well covers:

• Scratch-resistant
• Lightweight (half the weight of glass)
• Natural transparency and clarity
• Can be heated and molded into a variety of shapes and holds that shape when cooled
• Withstands heat & severe weather
• Impact-resistant – does not shatter upon high impact, but breaks into large, dull-edged pieces
• Does not deteriorate in sunlight
• Does not yellow with age
• UV light resistant
• Doesn’t contain or release BPA
• Recyclable
• Easy to clean
