Embedments

Graphics or suitable objects incorporated inside cast acrylic. Each insert must be assessed for compatibility with the heat, pressure and chemistry of the casting process.

Designing with depth

Printed artwork or a suitable object can sit at a planned depth within a cast piece. Position, spacing, contrast and viewing angle determine how clearly the design reads.

Check compatibility first

Not every object is suitable for casting. Share the proposed insert early so its reaction to the process can be evaluated. A physical prototype helps verify the placement, clarity and overall result.
