Acrylic is a light, strong, flexible plastic that is available in a wide range of colours and finishes. Whether you’re looking to add a pop of bright colour to create a bold, modern look or neutral colours for a calm, tonal decor, the options are seemingly endless. For this reason, coloured acrylic sheets are an increasingly popular way to incorporate colour and texture into your home and beyond.

The Many Uses of Acrylic Coloured Sheets

Coloured Acrylic Sheets in the Kitchen

Home renovations are on the rise. More than half of homeowners (53%) renovated in 2021, up four percent from 49% in 2020. Perhaps unsurprisingly, kitchens are the most popular room for renovation. People view them as the heart of the home and so refreshing this space can be like a breath of fresh air into your house.

There's no quicker way to update your kitchen than with brightly coloured kitchen splash backs. In fact, every year more homeowners are switching to acrylic splashbacks. This fuss-free option can add a contemporary feel to an old kitchen or become the focal point to a new renovation.  What’s more, if you’re looking to refresh your kitchen on a budget, acrylic coloured sheets are an affordable option.

Coloured Acrylic Sheets in the Bathroom 

As well as being fantastic for use in the kitchen, coloured acrylic sheets are perfect for bathrooms. They come in a variety of different colours, so if you’re finding your bathroom looking dull or plain, a coloured splashback can brighten the space up. In 2023, people have moved away from all-white bathrooms in favour of colour and experimentation. The bathroom trend of colour drenching has seen a meteoric rise in popularity.

Whether you’re completing a full renovation or want to give your bathroom a new lease of life, the versatility of acrylic coloured sheets cannot be rivalled. Unlike tiles, acrylic sheets provide both easy installation and easy cleaning as well as a huge visual impact. Simply add behind the sink to act as splash guards to prevent water and bathroom products from damaging your walls.
