Entrapments

Acrylic Encasements

These are some of the common uses for acrylic entrapment AKA acrylic encasements:

• Preserving documents and certificates: Diplomas, awards, licenses, and other important documents can be placed inside an entrapment to protect them from dust, moisture, and wear and tear.
• Showcasing memorabilia: Photos, postcards, tickets, or other collectible flat items can be displayed in an entrapment to prevent them from bending, fading, or getting damaged.
• Product displays: Small, valuable items like jewelry or sports cards can be securely exhibited in an entrapment.

Entrapments come in a variety of sizes and thicknesses, and some can even be customized with engravings or imprints.

Material Advantages:

• Clarity: High-quality acrylic offers exceptional clarity, allowing for a virtually undistorted view of the entrapped item.
• Durability: Acrylic is a strong and rigid material that can withstand bumps and scratches better than glass. It’s also not prone to shattering, making it a safer choice for displaying fragile items.
• Versatility: Acrylic comes in various thicknesses, allowing for customization depending on the desired level of protection and the weight of the item being displayed.
• Lightweight: Compared to glass, acrylic is significantly lighter, making it easier to handle and mount entrapments of all sizes.

Applications Beyond Preserving and Showcasing:

• Creative Displays: Acrylic entrapments can be used for creative presentations. For instance, artists can use them to showcase 3D collages or mixed-media pieces.
• Signage: Entrapments can be used to create clear and durable signs or displays for menus, business directories, or even architectural signage.
• Menu Holders: Restaurants can use acrylic entrapments to display menus, protecting them from spills and wear while maintaining a clean and elegant look.
