Buyer guide Cost By David Deng · R&D manager, Sanait · Updated October 2026 Custom acrylic does not have a public price per kilogram that means anything. The unit cost is the sheet, plus every station the part actually visits, spread over the quantity, plus pack and the Incoterm you asked for. Two “clear boxes” […]

Buyer guide Pack and ship By David Deng · R&D manager, Sanait · Updated October 2026 Most acrylic damage that shows up at the warehouse was packed in, not made in. Optical faces travel film-on. Cube corners need a block, not a hope. A freight number without an Incoterm is not a shipping plan. This […]

Buyer guide Inspection By David Deng · R&D manager, Sanait · Updated October 2026 Acrylic inspection is a comparison, not a feeling. The standard is the signed sample and the frozen drawing. “Looks clear” under frontal showroom light is not a criterion. Light the part from the side, check size against the drawing, and write […]

Quoting guide Custom acrylic By David Deng · R&D manager, Sanait · Updated October 2026 An acrylic quote is a priced set of assumptions, not a market price for “acrylic.” Two factories can both be honest and still differ by a wide margin if one assumed cast sheet and diamond-polished edges and the other assumed […]

Cluster 6 · Buyer / Procurement Guide · Ordering By David Deng · R&D manager, Sanait · Updated September 2026 Buying custom acrylic is a document problem before it is a price problem. Factories quote what is written: sheet route, thickness, finish, hardware, quantity, destination, and inspection. A photo of a competitor’s fixture is a […]

Cluster 5 · Industry Solutions Guide · Applications By David Deng · R&D manager, Sanait · Updated September 2026 Industry-specific acrylic work is still PMMA.
