ABOUT US :<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Dacryl is a French maison of artistic craftsmanship, specialized in the design and production of decorative cast acrylic panels. Based in the heart of France and distinguished with the Ateliers d\u2019Art de France<\/em> label, our manufacture has been cultivating for more than twenty years a unique expertise in the creation of synthetic materials of exceptional purity, combining artisanal savoir-faire, innovation, and technical mastery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Historically recognized for its work with light and the art of inclusion\u2014embedding botanicals, textiles, pigments, or metals within acrylic\u2014Dacryl today operates at the crossroads of craftsmanship and applied research. All our panels are produced entirely in-house, ensuring full traceability, uncompromising quality, and long-term durability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond the aesthetic dimension, we develop materials that are stable over time, guaranteed for ten years, rot-proof and non-yellowing<\/strong>, preserving both their technical and visual properties even after many years of use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building on this foundation, we have created a collection of recycled materials<\/strong>, developed in close collaboration with industrial partners from diverse sectors. The goal is twofold: to valorize their production waste by giving it a second life within innovative acrylic panels, and to open new decorative or commercial opportunities through the creation of unprecedented materials. For example, agricultural straw has been transformed into compact, durable surfaces for public institutions; fabric offcuts from fashion houses have been integrated into decorative panels; waste from the paper industry has been reimagined into recycled, sustainable supports; and even unexpected materials, such as discarded flip-flops, have been revalorized into unique decorative matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In parallel, our teams conduct advanced technical research<\/strong> that has led to two major innovations: a bullet-resistant material<\/strong> designed to enhance safety for public institutions, and an anti-radiation material<\/strong> developed for protection against nuclear radiation in power plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These developments demonstrate Dacryl\u2019s ability to merge design, innovation, and responsibility<\/strong>, delivering tailored solutions that address not only aesthetic requirements but also environmental and technical challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our ambition is clear: to continually push the boundaries of decorative acrylic by embedding it in a sustainable, innovative, and forward-looking approach.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Recycled Textile Components<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We recover offcuts and accessory elements from the textile industry, such as labels, padding from down jackets, and textile scraps. These heterogeneous materials are usually complex to recycle and often discarded. Working with a major French fashion brand specialised in ski and outdoor apparel, we developed an innovative recycled material integrating these textile components into a recycled acrylic matrix. This process allows layered fibres and soft elements to be structurally stabilised, creating a distinctive surface where texture, depth and material contrast become key features.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Recycled Aluminium Flakes<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Derived from machining industry waste, these aluminium flakes come from multi-material manufacturers producing chips from metal, polypropylene, polystyrene or PMMA. Usually destined for landfill, these by-products are instead recovered and revalorised. We collect, sort and integrate them at high density into a recycled acrylic matrix. This casting process creates a new aesthetic and technical material: durable, moisture-resistant and robust, transforming industrial waste into a high-value recycled surface.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Recycled Composite Paper<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This material is made from industrial paper waste reinforced with polyester resins and fillers. Once combined with these resins, such papers can no longer enter conventional paper recycling streams and are usually discarded. We recover these non-recyclable papers and integrate them into a recycled acrylic matrix, giving structure and cohesion to heterogeneous fibres. The result is a homogeneous, stable surface, where the original paper fragments remain visible and become an integral part of the material\u2019s identity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

OUR ECO-RESPONSIBLE COMMITMENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dacryl\u00ae uses recycled MMA (R-Life\u2122 from Trinseo), recycles 98% of its production offcuts in-house<\/strong> thanks to its own equipment, and manufactures exclusively on demand. Our production process does not exceed 50\u00b0C<\/strong>, ensuring very low energy consumption. We have developed a collection of 100% recycled materials<\/strong>, combining our own PMMA waste with DIB (non-hazardous industrial waste)<\/strong> from local authorities and industrial partners. These high-density inclusions are encapsulated in recycled PMMA to create rot-proof, highly resistant, aesthetic and high-performance panels<\/strong>, offering properties equivalent to compact materials. We prioritise French and European partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. A recycled raw material: R-Life\u2122 MMA (Trinseo)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our production is based on a certified recycled MMA, R-Life\u2122 MMA from Trinseo<\/strong>, ensuring high-quality PMMA with a significantly reduced carbon footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
