Q:
Can this be cut with a laser?
A:
Thank you for your question, this sheet is not suitable to be used on a laser cutter as PVC is made with chlorine if you cut it with a laser cutter it will release chlorine gas which is very dangerous. Do not cut this sheet with a laser cutter under any circumstances.

Q:
can this be folded neatly? using what technique? or can it just be folded?
Asked by: Chris
A:
Hello
This should fold pretty neatly with just standard folding (which you will sometimes see called cold creasing). On our polypropylene you can also use hot creasing where a strip heater is used to form the crease but that may not work as well on this material.

Asked by: Anita M Casey
A:
Hello Anita, Unfortunately this sheet is the only one we can obtain and can't obtain it in any other colour. However the Polypropylene sheet may be useful, although it is a solid colour due to the thickness of the sheet it would allow light to pass through. The light that does pass through would be diffused so would give a softer glow, https://www.kitronik.co.uk/materials/polypropylene.html. All of our products can be brought and shipped to the US.

Asked by: doug quinnell
A:
Doug,
The material isn’t supplied with adhesive backing so, no it can’t be stuck to anything in its raw state. You could of course purchase some suitable adhesive from elsewhere to bond it to the glass.
Best regards

Hello,
I've been searching for this kind of material and wanted to buy a sheet to make a product and sew it. I was wondering if it is durable for a wash bag? And, can it be printed on?

Asked by: sally
A:
The PVC sheet should be durable enough for the purpose you require it for, it is a very flexible material. You can print on it using any of the following methods, flexo, gravure, screen, letterpress and wet-offset printing

Q:
Hi, I have been trawling the internet trying to source a waterproof alternative to the paper used for Japanese shoji screens. I need a thin flexible white opaque plastic that shows through diffused light but not specific objects and it has to be large enough to back a 6ft x 6ft panel to go in our newly transforming Japanese themed garden. Can you let me know if any of your products meet these criteria, or if not, can you recommend someone who does?
I look forward to hearing from you. Many thanks.
