Manufactured from Spectar resin by Eastman.
Excellent optical properties and a gloss surface, easy to manipulate, easy to vacuum form, need no predrying, exceptional low temperature performance.
The main advantages of PETg sheets are their spectacular chemical resistance and very high impact properties.
