Acrylic Blocks

We manufacture acrylic blocks for stamping, product display, corporate branding, photography, and promotional gifts. Every block is precision-cut from optical-grade PMMA with your choice of edge profile (square, beveled, rounded, or full-radius), branding method (UV printing, silk-screen, laser engraving, or sandwich lamination of a flat logo or photo), and surface finish. MOQ is 50 pieces.

Acrylic blocks (PMMA) weigh about half as much as optical crystal, cost 40–60% less at production volumes, and won't shatter if dropped. Crystal offers slightly higher refractive sparkle, but acrylic delivers 92% light transmission with better impact resistance and easier customization — UV printing, silk-screen, and laser engraving are all simpler on acrylic than on crystal.

Yes. We brand blocks with surface methods: UV printing and silk-screen apply full-color or spot-color graphics directly to the face; laser engraving cuts a permanent frosted mark; and for a photo or logo block, sandwich lamination bonds a flat UV-printed graphic between two optically bonded acrylic layers so it sits within the block, protected from scratching and fading. Subsurface 3D laser engraving etches a design inside the solid block without breaking the surface. Every method is done in-house.

Four edge profiles: square (sharp geometric corners), beveled (angled chamfer, typically 45°), rounded (smooth radiused edges), and full-radius bullnose (semicircular profile). All edges are diamond-polished for optical clarity. Beveled and rounded edges are popular for corporate gifts and desk accessories; square edges suit display risers and stamp blocks.

Our MOQ for custom acrylic blocks is 50 pieces. This covers tooling setup, edge profiling, and production. Whether you need 50 logo blocks for a corporate event or 5,000 stamp blocks for wholesale distribution, the same factory, quality standards, and team handle your order.

Pricing depends on six factors: block dimensions, order quantity, edge profile, branding method (UV printing vs laser engraving vs sandwich lamination), material type, and packaging. A simple clear stamp block costs significantly less than a thick laminated logo block with beveled edges and gift packaging. Protective film is included on all polished surfaces during shipping. For logo blocks or photo blocks you'll display long-term, you can request additional protective film or a scratch-resistant coating upgrade at point of order. Send us your specs — we respond within 24 hours with a detailed quote.

Yes. All diamond-polished and flame-polished surfaces ship with protective film already applied — no scratches from handling. We also wrap blocks individually in foam and use corrugated dividers in cartons. Remove the film once you receive your order. If you need additional protection for long-term storage before use, let us know at order time and we can apply a scratch-resistant coating (minimal cost).

Photograph the outer carton, inner packaging, and the affected block, then email photos within 7 days of receipt. We'll replace the defective unit at no charge and may request the damaged piece back to analyze the cause. Our defect rate is ≤0.5% across all orders. Most reported damage is transit-related — if the carrier caused it, carrier freight insurance also covers replacement. See our quality control process.

Absolutely. Choose from four edge profiles: square (sharp geometric), beveled (45° chamfer), rounded (smooth radius), or full-radius bullnose (semicircular). All are diamond-polished for optical clarity. Rounded and full-radius edges add machining and polishing time (add 2–3 days to sample production). Most corporate logo blocks use beveled or rounded edges for a premium feel.

Our 50-piece MOQ is per design, not per total order — because each artwork needs its own print setup, screen, or engraving file. Splitting 100 pieces across 4 artworks means 25 of each, which falls below the 50-piece-per-design minimum. You have two options: raise each design to 50 pieces (200 total), or consolidate to fewer artworks. Tell us how many distinct designs you need and the units per design, and we'll quote the setup and per-unit cost for each scenario so you can compare.

Usually it comes down to material grade and finishing, not markup. A quote 3× lower is often extruded or recycled acrylic instead of cast optical-grade PMMA, skipped annealing (which prevents stress-cracking), flame-polished edges instead of diamond-polished, and no incoming-material inspection. Those blocks look similar in a photo but haze, yellow, or craze over time — which shows on a display or branded gift. We quote display-grade cast acrylic by default. If budget is the constraint, we'll show you where cost can come down without compromising clarity or durability, rather than quietly switching to a cheaper substrate. See why display-grade blocks cost more.

Yes. We supply the technical data sheet (TDS) for the acrylic grade we quote, so you can verify light transmission, impact resistance, and thermal properties before you commit. Our standard for display and branding blocks is cast optical-grade PMMA — not extruded or recycled sheet — which is why it holds optical clarity with no internal haze. If your project has specific requirements (UV-filtering, food-adjacent, flame rating), tell us and we'll confirm what the material spec supports before quoting; we mark any claim that needs material-lab confirmation rather than overstating it.

We anneal blocks after machining and printing to relieve internal stress — the main cause of crazing and cracks that appear weeks after production. For cleaning, use a soft microfiber cloth with mild soap and water, or an acrylic-safe cleaner. Avoid ammonia-based glass cleaners (Windex), solvents, and alcohol wipes — these attack PMMA and can trigger fine surface cracks, especially near printed or engraved areas. If your blocks will be cleaned frequently in a specific environment, tell us and we'll confirm the right finish and any coating before production.

Yes to all three. We send a digital artwork proof (PDF or render) for your written approval before we cut a physical sample — so layout, colors, and placement are locked before anything is produced. A one-time setup fee covers the print file, screen, or engraving program for your design; it's separate from the per-unit price and is a one-time cost per artwork. Standard samples ship in 3–5 days; if you're on a launch deadline, ask about an expedited sample and we'll tell you the fastest realistic turnaround for your spec. Sample cost is credited toward your first bulk order.

We're a manufacturer, not a fulfillment house, so we don't run per-order dropshipping. What we do support: bulk production shipped to your warehouse or 3PL, blind/neutral packaging without our branding, retail-ready boxes, individual poly-wrap, and barcode/SKU labeling so units are shelf- or fulfillment-ready on arrival. Tell us your destination, packaging, and labeling requirements and we'll build the packaging spec into the quote.

Unit price drops sharply with volume because tooling, setup, and print-file costs are fixed per design and spread across more units — 50 pieces carries the full setup on a small run, while 500 and 5,000 amortize it down and bring better material and machine efficiency. Send your target quantities and we'll quote 50 / 500 / 5,000 side by side so you can see the break at each tier. For repeat buyers we keep your approved specs, artwork files, and tooling on record, so ongoing reorders skip re-setup and quote faster — many customers run standing quarterly orders with us this way.

Capacity depends on block size, thickness, branding method, and finishing — a thin UV-printed stamp block runs far faster than a thick subsurface-3D laser-engraved piece. Standard production is 15–20 days, and our Shenzhen facility scales from 50-piece corporate runs to 5,000-piece wholesale orders on the same line. For a launch with a hard deadline, send your spec and target quantity and we'll confirm realistic weekly/monthly output and a committed ship date before you order — we won't overpromise a timeline the QC and finishing steps can't support.

Yes. We keep your approved specs, artwork files, and tooling on record, so a same-spec reorder can skip the sample step and go straight to production once you confirm the PO — that shortens lead time on repeat orders. If anything changes (quantity, color, packaging, or shipping method), we'll flag what shifts in price or freight and, for artwork or dimension changes, may recommend a fresh proof or sample so the re-run matches your expectation exactly.

Yes — a logo block is one of our most-ordered formats. We apply your logo by UV printing or silk-screen on the face, laser engraving for a permanent frosted mark, or sandwich lamination of a flat printed logo between two clear layers so the mark sits within the block. Send your artwork, block size, edge profile, and quantity, and we'll sample for your approval before the run.
