In lighting design, materials need to do more than just look good — they must perform, adapt, and last. At Hexatron, we’ve worked with optical-grade materials for years, and when it comes to thermoformed diffusers, one material stands out: PMMA (Polymethyl Methacrylate). Why PMMA Is Ideal for Thermoforming PMMA, also known as acrylic, offers several advantages that make it […]
In critical environments like hospitals, laboratories, and cleanrooms, lighting plays an essential role not only in visibility and aesthetics but also in hygiene, safety, and human well-being. In such places, every component of the lighting system—from the housing to the diffuser—must meet strict standards for durability, optical quality, and chemical resistance. One of the most […]
Achieving a UGR<19 compliant luminaire with a premium opal light effect requires precise engineering and the right combination of optical materials. Modern LED panels must balance efficiency, visual comfort, and aesthetic consistency, making the pairing of optical films and prismatic sheets essential for high-performance lighting systems. In most high-quality UGR<19 LED luminaires, the opal effect is created through a carefully […]
Modern lighting design places a strong emphasis not only on brightness but also on visual comfort. In offices, schools, retail spaces, and other workplaces, lighting that produces glare can cause eye strain, headaches, and reduced productivity. This is why UGR<19 compliant LED panels have become highly valued in commercial and professional environments. These panels are […]
Achieving UGR<19 Lighting with Micro Prismatic Sheets and Diffuser Films Creating visually comfortable indoor environments requires lighting systems that minimize glare while maintaining high efficiency. One of the most effective approaches is the combination of micro prismatic sheets and optical diffuser films, commonly used in LED luminaires designed to achieve a Unified Glare Rating (UGR) below 19, the recommended […]
A Light Guide Plate (LGP) is a transparent acrylic or polycarbonate sheet designed to evenly distribute light from a source, such as an LED, across a surface or object. LGPs have become an essential component in modern LED lighting applications due to their ability to provide uniform illumination, high efficiency, and versatile design options. How Light Guide Plates Work LGPs operate […]
Here are some aspects that can contribute to the aesthetics and beauty of a black diffuser for LED lighting: Sleekness: Black is often associated with sophistication and sleekness, so a black diffuser can enhance the overall aesthetic of a space by adding a modern and stylish touch. Contrast: The contrast between the black diffuser and […]
