For centuries, Japanese interiors have used translucent screens to soften daylight and create calm, inviting spaces. Acry Warlon™ brings that same aesthetic into contemporary homes, commercial interiors and architectural projects, combining the appearance of traditional shoji paper with the durability and versatility of modern acrylic.
Available exclusively through JapanGarden's Warlon Acrylic Collection, these specialist decorative acrylic sheets are manufactured in Japan and are widely used in shoji doors, room dividers, lighting features, furniture, hospitality interiors and bespoke architectural joinery.
Unlike traditional paper screens, Acry Warlon acrylics are completely unaffected by humidity, resistant to everyday wear and easy to clean. The sheets gently diffuse both natural and artificial light, creating the soft glow associated with traditional Japanese architecture whilst providing the strength and practicality expected in modern buildings.
The material is particularly suited to projects where the appearance of shoji paper is desired but where durability, safety and longevity are essential. Restaurants, hotels, spas, offices and private residences all benefit from the warm, understated ambience these acrylics create.
Acry Warlon sheets can be cut, drilled, machined and formed using conventional acrylic fabrication methods, making them ideal for both professional joiners and ambitious DIY projects. Whether incorporated into sliding doors, cabinet panels, illuminated displays or feature screens, the material offers exceptional design flexibility.
Popular applications include:
For larger architectural installations, our made-to-measure Shoji Screen Doors and Room Dividers can be manufactured using selected Warlon acrylic infills to create bespoke solutions tailored to your project.
Where compliance requirements demand enhanced performance, JapanGarden also supplies the premium Warlon Plate Artisan Washi Fire-Rated Series. These specialist panels retain the refined appearance of traditional shoji while offering certification suitable for many commercial and public environments.
For existing glazing, our Haru Warlon Self-Adhesive Shoji Films provide a simple way to transform plain glass into elegant Japanese-style screens without replacing the original glazing.
Over more than two decades, JapanGarden has supplied authentic Japanese architectural materials to homeowners, designers, architects and specialist joinery manufacturers throughout the UK and Europe. Our knowledge of traditional Japanese construction allows us to recommend the most appropriate acrylic, paper or hybrid solution for every project.
Whether you require a single replacement panel, acrylic sheets cut to size, or a complete bespoke shoji installation, we can advise on materials, fabrication techniques and design options.
The result is a practical modern material that captures the spirit of traditional Japanese interiors: soft light, understated elegance and timeless simplicity, combined with the durability required for contemporary living.
