Nope

Acrylic is a heavily used plastic in certain fields/area and there are a ton of different types available.

I doubt any framer offers solely UV-protective acrylic just because of cost

So the UV protection is an addon to the acrylic when they make it?

Yes it is done within the manufacturing process

I have fiddled a little with some DIY projects and acrylic is easy to work with but produces a crystal clear view

Here are some examples of various acrylics:

Just make sure to click on acrylic under the materials tab to the left and it'll show a half a dozen or so various acrylics you can buy from them. UV-resistant is one

May eventually make my own protective cases
