ABOUT US

Acrylic and Glass Exhibits Inc. has over 60 years of combined acrylic and glass aquarium manufacturing experience. Unlike other manufacturers, both we and our partners have made significant equipment investments to provide quality products to the highest of tolerances (.005" or less). A.G.E. Inc. applies the latest innovations along with traditional methods in aquarium manufacturing. CNC routing machines, diamond glass polishing equipment (not just diamond cutting), abrasive water jetting and glass bending ovens enable us to fabricate design features never seen before in our industry. Our large format CNC router allows us to scan a digital "foot print" (glass, acrylic or other) during the production process so other aquarium parts, as well as millwork, can match the "as bent" panel perfectly. Having access to fully automated digital machinery enables us to utilize AutoCAD to produce flawless parts in virtually any shape or size in glass, stainless steel, acrylic, and PVC and send this design to design studios or engineering firms.

Additionally, millwork and metal fabrication receive equal attention to capability, quality and detail. High power laser cutting technology (single and multi axis) is used in metal fabrication of exhibit grade aquariums and steel support stands as well as MIG, TIG and plasma torch welding. Finally, laser guided saws produce the highest quality wood stands and furniture available.

Using the latest digital and manufacturing processes available, we have developed our signature cylindrical acrylic aquariums and "hybrid" aquarium designs that result in the combination of glass, acrylic, steel, stainless steel, PVC, ABS and other materials in the fabrication of custom aquariums. The results are truly incredible, one of kind aquatic environments which we have delivered to hundreds of customers around the world.

The Competitors
- Production line experience
The A.G.E. Difference
- 60 years of custom aquarium manufacturing experience

The Competitors
- Heavy and extremely delicate glass base and bracing - selected because it's cheap, glueing is easy and minimal equipment and experience investment required
The A.G.E. Difference
- Light and sturdy PVC base and 3/4" acrylic bracing - selected because of their application strength, shipping durability, our manufacturing experience and willingness to invest in quality equipment to build quality products

The Competitors
- Uses traditional methods to build aquariums, cut glass and hide sharp edges and sloppy glue work using plastic strips. Many grind the visible sharp edges to the point of looking like they were cut with a chainsaw - the same processes used 30+ years ago
The A.G.E. Difference
- Digital material scanning, multi axis laser and flatbed cutting, CNC routing of all materials, machined diamond polished edges, clean glue work throughout, design through AutoCAD and tolerances of .005" or less

The Competitors
- Prefabricated radius glass, cheap off the shelf silicone and acrylic glue resulting in bubbled seams
The A.G.E. Difference
- Custom shaped radius glass, expensive high quality silicone and industrial grade acrylic glue. We also utilize a secret acrylic glueing process which prevents bubbles in acrylic seams - even 4"+ thick acrylic

The Competitors
- Glass or acrylic aquarium box featuring limited "customization"
The A.G.E. Difference
- Multiple material platform utilizing glass, acrylic, PVC, ABS, stainless steel or other materials to provide unique and unmatched customization and strength
