Lighting Fixtures with PALSUN LED: The Ultimate Solution

Sheets for LED lighting fixtures must be selected based on several key parameters. These parameters include:

• Optical diffusion: The even dispersion of light
• Gloss level: The amount of light reflected from the surface
• Light transmission: The percentage of light that passes through the material
• Durability: The material should be impact-resistant, durable, and long-lasting
• Thermoformability: Optical and surface properties are not compromised by thermal forming
• UV Resistance: Necessary to prevent yellowing and degradation over time

PALSUN LED polycarbonate sheets meet all these requirements. It is an ideal choice for LED lighting fixtures.

What Are Gloss Units?

Gloss units measure a surface’s reflective properties. Gloss refers to how much light is reflected off a surface when illuminated at a specific angle. Gloss units are measured using a gloss meter by shining a beam of light onto the material’s surface

Why Low Gloss is Required for Lighting Fixtures

A low gloss level is essential for LED lighting fixtures for several reasons:

• Reduced glare: High gloss surfaces can cause discomfort or distractions.
• Improved uniformity: Low gloss surfaces diffuse light more evenly.
• Aesthetics: A low gloss finish gives a lighting fixture a more sophisticated and modern look.

What is Light Diffusion?

Light diffusion is the process by which light is spread out as it passes through a material, rather than traveling in a straight line. This scattering of light distributes it evenly across a surface, preventing hot spots and creating a uniform glow.

Why Light Diffusion is Critical for LED Lighting Fixtures

LEDs are point light sources, meaning they emit light from a small, concentrated area. Without proper diffusion, LED light can create bright spots or uneven lighting.
Light diffusion is critical for LED lighting fixtures because:

• It reduces hot spots
• It creates a more comfortable and natural lighting environment
• It improves the lighting fixture’s overall appearance

What Is Unique About PALSUN LED?

PALSUN LED is an innovative solution that offers low gloss, optimal optical diffusion, and excellent light transmission. Uniquely designed to maintain a low gloss finish even after thermoforming and stretching, something many other
other materials fail to achieve. This allows for lighting fixtures with a soft, diffused glow, free from glare and hot spots.

Whether you’re designing LED lighting fixtures for commercial or domestic spaces, retail environments, or outdoor settings, PALSUN LED provides the most efficient balance to create functional and aesthetically pleasing lighting fixtures.

PALSUN LED offers industrial-grade polycarbonate physical and mechanical properties, including two-sided UV protection, ensuring it will not discolor or degrade, even with long-term exposure to natural daylight or artificial UV sources. It is not only a superior option for light diffusion but also a durable and resilient choice.
