LED Channels

The light channels are also called LED profiles. They are excellent options for elevating your strip light installation to a new level, enabling you to create impressive lighting effects. They can be used to house and protect the strip lights. They offer improved heat dissipation, enhanced light diffusion, and a professional finish for architectural and commercial lighting applications.

What Are Aluminium Channels for LED lights?

They are made of extruded aluminum, silicone, or plastic materials. Designed to house and protect the strip lighting and evenly spread the lighting for smooth illumination. Not only will they provide a professional finish for your lighting projects, but they will also help with heat dissipation and protect the lighting from dust, moisture, and damage. The aluminum channels come with diffused covers to improve light distribution and eliminate harsh light spots. The light becomes softer and more uniform, enhancing the look of your space.

Benefits:

1. Aesthetic: The aluminum LED profiles give the installation a clean, professional look. They will hide the raw wires and components for a clean glow. The included diffusers scatter light, creating a smooth, even, continuous line. You can choose different types of diffused covers to achieve the desired lighting effects, from a bright, focused beam to a soft, ambient light. 

2. Versatility and flexibility in design: Our light channels are optimized for diverse applications and can be easily integrated into existing designs. You can find them to fit any design need, from under-cabinet task lighting to ceiling coves, or highlighting architectural features. We offer more than 300 models for residential (kitchens, living rooms), commercial (retail stores, offices), industrial settings, and more.

3. Protection and extended lifespan: LED aluminum profiles protect against damage, dust, rain, and other moisture. It also acts as a heat sink for better heat dissipation. This will help extend the lifespan and ensure stable performance.
