As per our Shipping and Returns Policy, custom cuts and fabricated parts are non-returnable. If you need an over- or undersized item, note it under "Comments" during Checkout. Cut-to-size orders have an acceptable cut tolerance of 1/8" (0.125"), so clarify if the adjustment is to be made on the (+) or (-) side of the saw blade.Please review our full return and shipping policy here.
Measure Twice, Cut Once
Since custom cuts and fabricated parts are non-refundable, be very careful while measuring your dimensions. As each cut is nominal, even the slightest miscalculation could be costly.
How to Use a Measuring Tape
Extend your tape measure several inches to find the 1 and 2 inch markers. In between the inch markers you’ll find 16 equally spaced tick marks.
Measure by counting the increments beyond the nearest inch. As the increments decrease, so does the length of the mark. For example, 1/2" has a bigger mark than 1/4" which has a bigger mark than 1/8". The smallest mark follows at 1/16". Please be aware that some measuring tapes may have even smaller increments.
Features of a Measuring Tape: Sliding End Hook
The sliding end hook is designed for two different types of measurements. An outside measurement (where the hook of the tape hangs over an edge), requires the hook to slide out a bit to account for the thickness of the material. When making an inside measurement (where the hook will push up against a surface), the clip slides in, again, accounting for its thickness. The measuring tape self-adjusts to guarantee an accurate measurement (as far as the tape is concerned).
Sanitizing Acrylic and Polycarbonate Sheet [X]
Acrylic and Polycarbonate Sneeze Guards and like products require special care while cleaning and disinfecting. To maintain the optical clarity of sneeze guards and other acrylic or polycarbonate items, use an acrylic or polycarbonate safe cleaner like Novus Plastic Polish #1, Brillianize Plastic Cleaner, or a mild soap solution.
Please reference the following compatible cleaners when DISINFECTING acrylic and polycarbonate items. The use of commonly available commercial alcohol or ammonia-based disinfectants may cause crazing and damage.
ACRE™ is a new high performance eco-friendly material developed as an indistinguishable alternative to wood and composite substitutes. Made out of upcycled natural rice husk fibers, ACRE™ sheets have the same warm look and feel of wood with none of its drawbacks. They accept a diverse set of finishing options like stains, oils, glaze, paint, coatings, and even digital printing.
100% Sustainable and Eco-Friendly
ACRE™ sheets are made of discarded natural rice husk fibers, a rapidly renewable resource. They are 100% recyclable and are created through a zero-waste and tree-free manufacturing process without phenol, formaldehyde, or adhesive additives. ACRE™ sheets are made in the U.S.A. to reduce harmful emissions from long distance transport.
Durable and Easy to Work With
ACRE™ sheets are 100% waterproof due to their rice husk base and have superior weatherability. They resist pests and fungal growth, have a high resistance to UV, and will not fade, splinter, crack, rot, or warp. Unlike wood and some composites, ACRE™ is thermoformable, making it perfect for applications requiring curves. It can be bonded with a wide variety of glues and accepts screws and nails with a flush finish. Common woodworking tools and patching or filling materials work just as well with ACRE™ as they do on natural wood.
ACRE™ meets UL94 V-0 requirements.
