Strength and Weather Resistance of Acrylic Windows
Acrylic windows are far more shatter resistant than glass. The amount of pressure needed to break glass is far less than that of acrylic. When glass does shatter it breaks into small jagged pieces that can cut very easily, acrylic when it does reach its breaking point does not fragment into small sharp pieces rather it fractures into large dull pieces. Acrylic is tough enough to handle life's accidents and will more than likely flex rather than shatter.
