Go Groms!


We just saw photos of some acrylic trophies that we made for the folks over at Rip Curl. They were for Gromsearch 2007 in which the hottest talent in youth surfing compete for a chance to go to the world finals in Bell's Beach Australia. We took two pieces of inch thick acrylic and then sandwiched dyed resin between them for a unique and individual look. After the resin finally dried we cut them down to size and hand polished them for hours until they were flawless. Then we had them laser engraved and attached the Rip Curl logo that we made with artFORMULA. The result? Great looking trophies for the Groms. Good job guys.

Certified Clear!

The Acrylic we use is exclusively from Polycast so that we can control the quality of what we put out there. With the last shipment we received we got a two page signed document highlighting all of the physical, optical, and chemical properties of that shipment. It was signed off in two places by actual people who are in charge of quality control. Although it costs us nearly twice the price it is pretty refreshing compared to the nightmares that we have experienced already with both Plexiglas and Reynolds Polymers.

Acrylic is 100% Recyclable

One of the best things about acrylic is that it is 100% recyclable. This is important in protecting our environment. We at Aaron R. Thomas are proud to announce that we will recycle any acrylic furniture for free. If you have an old piece of acrylic furniture you can simply send it to us and we will recycle it for you. It is what we call doing our part for the environment. Give us your tired, your poor, your acrylic furniture yearning to breathe free, and we will give it a new life.
