Custom acrylic aquariums and pool panels come in all shapes and sizes. To meet this demand Reynolds Polymer thermoforms all of our curved panels in-house, utilizing our industry leading engineering staff, weld shop, and custom ovens. This allows Reynolds Polymer to control all aspects and tolerances of the process to create an infinite amount of custom shaped acrylic panels. Our large, proprietary ovens are designed to thermoform even the largest, most complex shaped panels. Reynolds Polymer has the ability and experience to form our acrylic in multiple directions, to create: spheres, barrel shapes, trumpet shapes, cones, curved tubes, curved tunnels, and more. Our ability and experience to provide multi-radii shapes, allows designers the freedom to shape their aquaria into never-seen-before designs. From free standing underwater dome rooms to 360-degree tunnel assemblies, Zoos and Aquaria are now giving visitors views and experiences like the world has never seen. Our team at Reynolds Polymer has been vital in bringing these exhibits to life.
Aquarium and Zoo designers constantly try to bring the visitors as close to the animals as possible, for a truly immersive experience. Custom cast and formed acrylic panels offer the unparalleled ability to do this in truly unique ways. As a visitor walks into a clear underwater tunnel, and an animal swims overhead, they feel like they can just reach out and touch the animals. This sense of actually being underwater with the animals lends a whole new perspective to the visitor experience, as there are new sight lines and viewing angles that they have never seen before with standard flat panel tanks. The same is true for pop-up panels that allow children to poke their heads into tanks without getting wet, and seeing the animals up close from their point of view. Plus, designers can incorporate viewing angles for parents to photograph their children through the acrylic, as if the kids were in the tank with the fish.
