Important note: Don't use acrylic sheeting behind or too near to a gas or electric cooker, hob, open fire, radiator, wood burner, Rayburn, Aga or any other source of heat. If the area is likely to get hotter than 160°C it can damage the acrylic, so we advise against its use.

Which materials can you use close to a heat source?

– Electric, Ceramic & Induction Hobs - Acrylic wall panels are suitable for use behind induction and ceramic hobs as long as you keep it a minimum of 50mm from the appliance.
– Gas Hobs - For direct heat source hobs, one of our Low Iron toughened glass splashbacks is perfect.
