Material overview
Our PET-G sheets, also known by the brand name Vivak, are completely transparent, highly impact-resistant, and flexible. The plastic offers a crystal-clear appearance with excellent optical properties and retains its shape even after bending. Thanks to its clarity and stability, it is ideal for laser cutting applications such as showcases, displays, and protective covers.
