How we work — please read before ordering
Plastics Direct is a direct-to-order importer, not a retailer or wholesaler
We don't hold stock in Christchurch and we don't sell single sheets off a shelf. Every order is placed against your specification and shipped factory-direct from vetted Tier-1 mills to your door. That's how we deliver mill pricing — but it means orders are made-to-order with a typical 3–5 week lead time, and we work to a minimum order (container-share pallet or larger).
Acrylic (PMMA) is the most versatile transparent plastic in the trade - half the weight of glass, 17 times stronger and a fraction of the freight cost. We supply cast and extruded acrylic in clear, opal, tinted and fluorescent grades direct from the same Asian mills that supply most of the wholesalers you currently buy from.
For Christchurch buyers we ship to all major industrial precincts - direct delivery means no warehouse pickups and no distributor-to-distributor handling. Christchurch fabricators consistently save 20–40% on traditional acrylic distributor pricing.
