Acrylic is a strong and durable material that can stand up to the wear and tear it might receive in the kitchen.
Cast acrylic is easy to care for and keep in good condition. It will be less susceptible to dust and grease, something glass and stainless steel splashbacks struggle to achieve. And when it does get marked or slightly dusty, it is simple to clean with a wet cloth.
Something that is incredibly important in the kitchen is hygiene, and acrylic offers an extremely hygienic option. It is also water resistant and can be used behind hobs as long as it is protected by glass or used at a suitable distance.
Along with the above benefits, acrylic splashbacks are lightweight and incredibly easy to install at home. This means that those with a limited knowledge of DIY will be able to fit them quickly and easily to create a new look in the kitchen.
Please be aware that this incredibly vibrant yellow material needs to be fixed to a blemish-free wall, ideally with a white or light background. Dark blemishes or tape can sometimes show witness marks though the front face of the material.
