A1 Acrylic Resin
A1 Acrylic Resin is one of the safest and easiest to work with resins for professional castings, artwork and decorative projects.
Acrylic resin consists of a powder (B component) and a liquid (A component) that harden at room temperature. The material can be poured into silicone molds or troweled onto walls or objects for various applications.
Acrylic Resin Applications – Endless Possibilities
With acrylic resin you can easily make:
- ✓ Decorative walls and wall decorations
- ✓ Ornaments and decorative elements
- ✓ Artworks and sculptures
- ✓ Images and replicas
- ✓ Repairs to existing objects
- ✓ Construction elements
Why choose A1 acrylic resin?
Perfect for set building & replicas
This professional casting material is ideal for set construction and theatrical scenery. Its excellent detail allows you to perfectly imitate materials—from wood and stone to metal and other textures.
Safe processing - no heat development
Due to the very low heat development during curing, you can safely cast acrylic resin in any desired size without the risk of cracking or deformation.
Extra strength with fiberglass reinforcement
Acrylic resin combined with fiberglass and fiberglass cloth produces extremely strong results. Ideal for:
- → Laminating objects
- → Making strong support caps
- → Creating hollow images
- → Construction of sustainable elements
Mixing ratio & processing properties
A complete acrylic resin set contains:
A-component (liquid)
The liquid component of the system
B-component (powder)
The powdered component
Mixing ratio: A:B = 1:2 (by weight)
Acrylic resin vs porcelain plaster
Although acrylic resin and porcelain plaster look similar after pouring (plaster is slightly whiter), acrylic resin offers important advantages:
- ✓ Higher strength and durability
- ✓ Improved machinability after curing
- ✓ Excellent adhesion for repairs (after light roughening)
- ✓ Professional finishing possible
⚠️Important: Both acrylic resin and plaster require sealing when used outdoors or in contact with moisture.

Fiberglass reinforcement materials
Professional fiberglass cloths
Fiberglass cloth 190 grams/m²
Strong and light woven fiberglass for casting or draping, results in very strong acrylic layers
Triaxial Fiberglass Cloth
Looser weave for better drapability, slightly less strong but more flexible in use
C-veil Glass fabric 30 grams/m²
Ultra-thin mat of long glass fibres, perfectly drapeable for contact layers and detail work
Fiberglass additives
Cut Fiber Optic
Mix with acrylic resin for added strength in support layers, ideal for sandwich constructions with fiberglass cloth
Professional tips & techniques
Sandwich Construction: Combine a layer of acrylic resin with chopped fiberglass between two layers of acrylic resin with fiberglass cloth for maximum strength.
