ACRYLITE® Softlight

The properties of the diffusers in the ACRYLITE® Softlight series offer numerous design options for lighting applications. These range from backlit covers to ambient light by means of finely graded forward and/or backward scattering, light transmission for ambient effects and frosted surfaces in the extrusion (for selected molding compounds).
