Polycarbonate (PC) is tough, lightweight, plastic sheet material with outstanding optical properties. It is a good choice for lighting applications, where strength, durability, and lightweight are required, including mass transit and aerospace lighting.

Other lighting applications include: lighting fixtures, commercial lighting, retail merchandising, and LED light diffusion. LEDs are long lasting, energy efficient light sources. However, LEDs can be particularly challenging for lighting designers since LEDs create “hot spots” of focused light that can detract from the visual appeal of a fixture. Special grades of polycarbonate sheet, and polycarbonate film are engineered to diffuse LED hot spots without sacrificing light transmission while meets stringent mass transit, building and construction fire safety standards.

Nofia flame retardant additives provide customized transparency solutions for light diffusion and meet all major building and construction, and mass transits fire safety standards.
