TESSEMATT is the name for ASTARIGLAS® range of matt satin - textured cast acrylic sheets . The name comes from the Latin word " tessera " which means a small cube of coloured glass . used for ornamental purposes . This special texture provides elements of elegance and warmth . It retains the " frosted look " even after thermoforming , sawing and drilling .
Customers may choose from different colours , as light is diffused uniformly , thereby softening strong colours and subtly filtering the light to reduce glare . The pleasant - to - touch surface makes this type of material suitable for furniture and certain architectural applications , as well as many other applications .
ASTARIGLAS® TESSEMATT is available in single - sided ( TESSEMATT S ) and double - sided satin surface ( TESSEMATT DS ) . Available in standard thickness from 3-12mm .
