Aristech Acrylics® is a US manufacturer of premium acrylic sheets used to produce shells for hot tubs, pools and wellness equipment. The material is continuously cast acrylic (PMMA – polymethyl methacrylate), characterised by high density, non-porosity and a homogeneous structure. It forms the interior surface of the hot tub, which is in direct contact with water and the user. Bio-Lock® technology gives the surface a reduced ability to retain microorganisms and dirt. The acrylic is also UV-stabilised, which prevents colour degradation and loss of gloss. Combined with fibreglass reinforcement, it forms a strong, durable and dimensionally stable structural component of the hot tub.
Advantages of Aristech Acrylics®
- Hygienic, non-porous surface: The material does not absorb water, grease or bacteria, which simplifies cleaning and raises the hygiene standard.
- Long-term colour and visual stability: Resistance to UV radiation prevents yellowing, fading or loss of gloss even after years of use.
- High mechanical resistance and service life: It withstands microcracking, deformation and chemical damage caused by disinfecting agents.
- Simple maintenance without aggressive cleaning: The smooth surface allows dirt to be removed with routine wiping, without abrasive cleaning agents.
