CLAREX Acrylic Light Guide Reflectors (LGR)
An all-in-one solution for light guide panels (LGP).
CLAREX Light Guide Reflector sheets are made using clear call-cast acrylic with a heavy matte diffusive texture on the front surface and white/reflective ink printed on the rear side. The material could be cut to size and edge-lit to serve as a light guide panel (LGP), without needing the usual reflector and diffuser films.
It doesn’t have any provisions for uniformity, so it is up to the customer to adjust the lighting accordingly. For this reason, it is more often used for prototyping, or in applications where uniformity is not critical. However, we also have customers using this material to uniformly backlight LCD Displays by carefully designing the lighting unit.
Benefits of Acrylic Light Guide Reflectors:
- All-in-one light guide panel material
- Easily cut to size
- Great for prototyping
- Less hassle compared to standard Light Guides with custom designed dot patterns, and which also require reflector and diffusion films

HOW IT WORKS
How Light Guide Reflectors Work
Light is fired in through the edges. It then travels through the clear acrylic, and eventually reflects off of the rear reflective layer and exits out the front surface. The diffusive front surface increases the uniformity.
