BRINGING DIFFUSION EFFECTS TO CUTTING-EDGE LIGHTING

PMMA (acrylic) and light have gone hand in hand for years and, throughout this time, we’ve always sought to offer PMMA products aimed at helping lighting designers get the most out of the sector’s consistently advancing technologies.

LED technology is a prime example. As lumen output potential gets higher and higher, design issues like “hot spots”, where the light source behind a surface material is visible, need to be solved without compromising any of the other factors – colour potential, light weight or longevity – designers need.

That’s why we think you’ll be interested in our brand new Diakon® Light Plus PMMA.

WHAT CAN WE OFFER

“Diakon® Light Plus PMMA offers designers and manufacturers a larger palette of diffusion effects to help create unique design features and ultimately provide optimal lighting output for the end user” says Nick Curtis, Market Development Manager.

Smooth, even illumination across the surface hides even the most intense LED light sources behind it, and the improved light transmission across the whole range means you can do more with less – great brightness without the need for high-power light sources.

How can we make diffusion work for you?

The twelve types of diffusion characteristics within the standard range Diakon® Light Plus range are just the start! You can then work with us to tailor the final product to your exact processing, surface aesthetic, mechanical and thermal requirements.

“The lighting sector remains a key area of development potential and commercial focus for Lucite International’s downstream polymer business in Rozenburg, The Netherlands” says Garry Phillipson, EMEA Polymer Grade Developments Manager, adding:

“Over time, we have seen some significant changes in the nature of technical developments in lighting. Whilst any change brings its challenges, it can also present an exciting prospect for us to grow with our customers.”

In these uncertain times for many markets, we can bring you more light with our Diakon® Light Plus PMMA.
