Acrylic Sheet by Appearance & Finish
Find the OLFA® acrylic sheet that matches your required transparency, color, surface texture or decorative effect. Browse the range by visual result, then confirm the manufacturing process, thickness and specification for your project.
Choose the visual result your project requires
Each category represents a visible appearance or surface effect. Product availability may vary by manufacturing process, thickness, sheet size, color and order quantity.
Clear Acrylic Sheet
Clear acrylic sheet provides high transparency and a clean, glass-like appearance for projects where visibility, light transmission and visual clarity are central to the design.
Typical uses: Sign panels, display covers, retail fixtures and transparent barriers.
Colored Acrylic Sheet
Colored acrylic sheet supports brand matching, illuminated graphics and decorative projects through standard and custom color options.
Color families: Opaque, translucent and fluorescent colors.
Mirror Acrylic Sheet
Mirror acrylic sheet creates a reflective surface with lower weight than conventional glass mirrors, supporting display, signage and interior decoration projects.
Options to confirm: Back-coated, self-adhesive, double-sided and two-way mirror.
Textured Acrylic Sheet
Textured acrylic introduces a controlled surface pattern that adds visual depth, reduces direct visibility and creates a distinctive tactile appearance.
Typical uses: Interior partitions, decorative panels, cabinet inserts and display features.
Frosted Acrylic Sheet
Frosted acrylic softens transmitted light and reduces direct visibility, making it suitable for privacy, diffusion and understated interior applications.
Typical uses: Privacy screens, diffusers, partitions and architectural details.
Glitter Acrylic Sheet
Glitter acrylic adds embedded reflective detail to decorative surfaces where visual impact and changing light response are part of the design.
Typical uses: Retail displays, event decoration, branded fixtures and feature panels.
One OLFA color reference system
OLFA uses one shared acrylic color reference system to identify standard sheet colors. Each color is described by a readable color name and an OLFA color code for ordering and specification. A color code identifies the color reference—not the manufacturing process.
Availability: Confirm color by sheet type, manufacturing process, thickness, dimensions and order quantity. On-screen colors are identification aids only and may vary by display.

Match the appearance to the design requirement
Start with the visual result the finished project must deliver. Final suitability should then be confirmed against application, thickness, processing and environmental requirements.

When one appearance requirement is not enough
Many projects combine color, transparency, privacy or reflectivity. Use these examples as a starting point, then confirm the final sheet specification with OLFA.
Brand color + controlled light transmission
Start with translucent colored acrylic when a brand color must remain visible under illumination. Confirm the color using a physical sample under the intended light source.
Clear visibility + branded accents
Use clear acrylic where product visibility is the priority, then introduce colored or mirror acrylic as a controlled brand or reflective accent.
Reduced visibility + transmitted light
Choose frosted acrylic for a softer matte result or textured acrylic when the surface pattern should become part of the interior design.
Reflectivity + color or sparkle
Choose mirror acrylic for a continuous reflective surface or glitter acrylic for localized highlights that change under directional light.
