CASTING ACRYLIC EXPERT

Food Grade Acrylic Sheet

Food grade acrylic sheets (PMMA) offer high transparency, excellent stability, and outstanding processability. Certified by SGS, they meet safety standards for food contact materials. Ideal for applications such as food processing, catering equipment, packaging, and displays, these sheets enhance both the aesthetic appeal and safety of products, making them a perfect choice for designs requiring hygiene and visual appeal.

Our acrylic sheets are formulated with low residual monomer content, free from toxic heavy metals and harmful volatile compounds. A variety of protective film options are available to accommodate different processing and packaging requirements.

Testing Items and Standards (Based on SGS Food Contact Material Testing)

Test Medium Test Conditions Standard Requirements
Water 60°C × 30 minutes Potassium permanganate consumption ≤10ppm
Volatile residue ≤30ppm
4% Acetic Acid 60°C × 30 minutes Heavy metals (as lead) ≤1ppm
Volatile residue ≤30ppm
n-Heptane 25°C × 1 hour Volatile residue ≤30ppm
20% Ethanol 60°C × 30 minutes Volatile residue ≤30ppm
Methyl methacrylate monomer ≤15ppm

Lead and cadmium content are both below 100ppm, fully compliant with food-grade plastic regulations.

Comparison of Food Grade Plastic Materials

Material Abbreviation Advantages Disadvantages Common Applications Heat Resistance Range (Reference)
Acrylic PMMA High transparency, aesthetic appeal, excellent stability Brittle, low impact resistance Food display cases, covers, catering equipment -40°C ~ 90°C
Polycarbonate PC Impact resistance, transparency, high heat tolerance Easy to scratch, requires BPA-Free versions Baby bottles, water bottles, protective covers -40°C ~ 120°C
Polypropylene PP Microwave-safe, heat resistant, lightweight Opaque, poor scratch resistance Food containers, spoons, cup lids -20°C ~ 120°C
Polyethylene PE Flexible, acid and alkali resistant, low cost Low transparency, lower heat resistance Food bags, milk bottles -50°C ~ 90°C
Polyester (PET) PET High transparency, lightweight Poor high-temperature resistance Beverage bottles, packaging containers -20°C ~ 70°C
