Thermoplastics are advantageous for lighting profiles due to their lightweight design, color availability, impact and shatter resistance, and flexibility. For lenses, we often use acrylic (in various colours and finishes) or polycarbonate (clear or frosted). We usually suggest PVC, CPVC, or PC thermoplastics for light housing.
If you’re interested in having a custom lighting lens or housing created, contact the team at Plastifab today. We can help you design a successful lighting application in quality extruded thermoplastics.
