Focus on Lighting & Illumination Sign 2 Signs Illuminating built-up letters
Illumination plays a pivotal role in creating impact and ensuring visibility, day and night. Built-up acrylic letters offer a range of illumination styles, including face-lit, return illumination, and halo effects. Stainless steel letters, synonymous with premium finishes, are often halo-illuminated, while rimless letters strike a modern balance with both face and halo lighting options. There has been an evolution from fluorescent tubes to neon and now LED modules. LEDs have become the gold standard due to their simplicity in installation, excellent diffusion, and long lifespan. While traditional neon offers unmatched brightness and can last for decades, its intricate craftsmanship and maintenance demands have made LEDs the preferred choice for most applications today.
