Diffusion Reflectors (DR-I)
An acrylic reflector sheet designed to improve brightness and uniformity in ambient-lit display applications.
CLAREX DR-I Diffusion Reflectors are acrylic sheets with a reflective textured surface that helps improve light distribution behind ambient-lit displays. They have traditionally been used behind LCDs and similar display assemblies to support better brightness and viewing uniformity without internal illumination.
While this material is less common in newer display designs, it is still used for replacement parts in legacy systems and for select specialty applications where ambient-light display performance remains important.
Benefits of DR-I Light Diffusing Acrylic
Enhances Ambient-Lit Display Performance
Helps improve brightness and viewing uniformity in a variety of display applications.
Reflective Textured Surface
Designed with a textured reflective surface that helps distribute ambient light more effectively behind the display.
Supports Legacy System Replacements
A practical option for replacing reflector components in older display systems that still rely on ambient-light viewing.
Useful for Specialized Display Designs
Well-suited for select display and visual applications where ambient-light performance and reflective control are important.
Easy to Cut & Fabricate
Can be cut to size for replacement parts and custom display applications.
Wide Range of Colors and Finishes
Available in multiple colors and appearance options to match different design requirements.
Common DR-I Diffusion Reflectors Applications
Designed for applications that need controlled reflection, improved light distribution, and consistent visual performance.
Legacy LCD Reflectors & Replacement Display Components
A practical option for replacing reflective elements in older LCD and ambient-lit display assemblies.
Reflective Targets
Useful for applications that need a reflective surface to improve visibility, contrast, or light return.
Prototyping Display Mockups, & Proof-of-Concept Builds
Well-suited for prototype builds, mockups, and early-stage concepts where reflective performance or appearance needs to be evaluated.
Custom Reflective Panels
A good fit for fabricated reflective parts used in specialty display or visual assemblies.
Instrument or Gauge Reflectors
Suitable for select reflective components used behind dials, gauges, or visual readouts.
Exhibit & Demonstration Models
Can be used in demonstration pieces and display models that benefit from a reflective acrylic surface.
Sample materials may be available to help you evaluate material performance.
