This document specifies the test methods for quality control of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) extruded double- and triple-skin flat sheets, obtained from colourless and coloured transparent, translucent and opaque grades of materials.

The minimum sheet width is 600 mm.

The main applications of these sheets are in building and agriculture (greenhouses).
