Acrylic box — coming soon
Clear acrylic instead of plywood: boxes, display cases and organizers you can see into. We are preparing acrylic for the builder — this page explains what is coming and how to order now.
Acrylic is not yet enabled in the builder — plywood is available now.
What we are preparing
EKOSTAR has been laser-cutting acrylic for years — display cases, stands, signs. Acrylic boxes in Rilbox will work like plywood ones: you set dimensions, the builder draws a 3D model and calculates the price, the parts assemble with finger joints. The difference is the material: acrylic is clear or coloured, smooth, unaffected by moisture, and the laser leaves a polished edge.
Acrylic parameters — thickness, colours, transparency — are still being settled. There are deliberately no acrylic prices on the site: we don't want to show numbers that will change.
What an acrylic box is for
- A display case for a collection: figures, models, coins — visible from all sides, no dust.
- A clear organizer for cosmetics or stationery — you see at once what is where.
- A gift box for something you want to show without unwrapping.
- Damp rooms: bathroom, kitchen — acrylic doesn't swell, unlike plywood.
How acrylic differs from plywood in assembly
Acrylic is stiffer and more brittle than plywood, so finger joints behave differently: the fit is made looser, and for a permanent assembly a dedicated acrylic cement is used that "welds" the parts with a clear seam. These are exactly the parameters we are working out so that a box from the builder assembles predictably.

How to order an acrylic box now
Until acrylic is enabled in the builder, it can be ordered through a manager: write to us with the dimensions and purpose of the box — contact. The manager will quote it by hand and suggest an option.
Meanwhile — plywood
Everything described on the site already works for 3 or 4 mm plywood: custom-size box, with dividers, with removable lid, organizer.
