What are Silicone LED Channels?
The flexible LED profiles are made of silicone and are bendable, allowing them to be shaped to achieve creative lighting design. They will help diffuse the lighting evenly, eliminate hot spots, and reduce glare, creating a uniform, visually pleasing illumination. They also protect the COB strip lights from dust, moisture, and physical damage, which allows them to be used in indoor wet environments and outdoor applications. The flexibility feature enables them to be bent or curved to fit different shapes and angles, making them ideal for applications that aluminum channels cannot handle.
