Top 3 advantages of using a plastic dome


What is a plastic dome?

Plastic domes are hemispherical structures, constructed with polycarbonate or acrylic materials to form durable and eye-catching fixtures, which can be customised and fitted to benefit a wide selection of industries.

Here at Talbot Designs, we have over 70 years’ experience in manufacturing tailored plastic domes, that are carefully created in accordance with our client’s individual requirements. The end result offers our customers a variety of advantages including:

  1. Versatile applications

Plastic domes have an unlimited amount of uses that can benefit individuals and businesses. For example, they can be used as part of an innovative exhibit, in order to showcase and protect art displays in a gallery and artefacts in a museum.

If you are looking for a unique and eye-catching light shade, an acrylic dome would be the perfect option, as they are extremely adaptable and will highlight and enhance a room of your choice.

  1. Tailored designs

Dependent on its intended application, plastic domes can be tailored to meet a wide range of requirements. For example, it is possible to customise the size of the plastic domes, as well as the colours, patterns and personalised designs.

At Talbot Designs, we provide a variety of tailored services – such as painting, sandblasting, and frosting the acrylic dome. We can also add additional features such as lighting effects and engravings in order to fully enhance your plastic dome. 

  1. Brand awareness

One of the biggest advantages of purchasing a plastic dome is that it can benefit your business in a variety of ways. For instance, you could utilise an acrylic dome as a form of signage for your organisation – including your company name, logo, and brand colours, in order to engage and entice potential customers.

Plastic domes are also ideal for window displays, alerting your customers to current sales and offers that you may have on in your shop, café, restaurant or bar. Unlike window displays that have a normal sign, a dome is a unique feature and is, therefore, more likely to draw your customers in with its innovative design.
