Inplas have been using Perspex® sheet in a variety of grades, thicknesses and colours to create stunning and effective props, sets and backdrops for film and TV programmes as they find Perspex® easy to work with and because they know that Perspex® will look good under the demanding scrutiny of the camera.
Over the years they have developed a reputation for producing excellent quality work with superb craftsmanship; Perspex® is the ideal product in which they can demonstrate their skills.
