Weatherable and decorative sheet
Introduction
KYDEX® 510 is a weatherable sheet with superior performance for thermoforming and a decorative sheet for lamination.
General
Information
KYDEX® 510 is available in many distinctive colors and textures. An acrylic cap protects the surface, providing excellent weatherability for outdoor use. This product is now available with decorative film (black/white granite). While excellent in thermoforming, KYDEX® 510 is also being used as damage resistant surface material.
