High-quality, scratch resistant acrylic which will not yellow or turn hazy over time.
Each block interlocks with integral, overlapping flanges and then bonded inside and out with proprietary sealants. Panels are then glazed into vinyl frames.

Everywhere! You can use an acrylic block window as a feature in any room of the home or as an accent. Both the fixed and operable windows are extremely popular in kitchens and bathrooms.
We recommend using mild soap, lukewarm water and a soft cloth. Harsh cleaners, tile cleaners, glass cleaners and abrasive cleaners should never be used to clean acrylic blocks. Also, acrylic blocks should not be scrubbed or brushed.
No … The caulking is guaranteed not to yellow, crack, flake or chip. In addition, an antifungicide in the caulk prevents mildewing.

There are many benefits to using acrylic blocks over glass blocks in windows. In addition to being 30% more energy-efficient than glass blocks, acrylic blocks are strong and durable, but lightweight... over 70 percent lighter than glass blocks. This makes the window easier to work with and install. Also, Hy-Lite windows come fully fabricated and can be installed just like other windows in the home and do not require increased structural support. Glass blocks typically must be mortared with cement - one by one - on the job site. Additionally, lightweight acrylic blocks won't sag or cause caulk lines to crack... problems that can often be found with glass block units over time. Acrylic blocks also allow for geometric shapes, custom sizes, operable units, retro-fit units and significant improvements in thermal efficiency.
