Discover the enhanced performance of Cellulose Acetate Butyrate (CAB), a tough and exceptionally stable thermoplastic, from Rothko and Frost. Ideal for makers, designers, and engineers seeking a high-performance material for demanding applications, CAB offers superior impact strength, lower moisture absorption, and greater dimensional stability compared to standard cellulose acetate. Often chosen for its excellent clarity in transparent forms, though also available in various colours, it machines beautifully and can be polished to a high gloss. Our selection of CAB plastic is provided in versatile formats such as sheets, rods, and blocks, making it perfect for crafting durable tool handles, premium pen bodies, robust knife scales, components intended for outdoor use, precision prototypes, and other items where resilience and long-term stability are key.
