Silicone in the Lighting Industry
Silicone rubber is one of the most used materials in this sector, both in its compact and sponge version.
Led lighting is one of the sectors that has grown the most in recent times, due to its versatility, variety, adaptability and modernity. The Silicone is the ideal component since it allows to customize and adapt the designs in any RAL color and shape, keeping the transparency characteristics intact, without yellowing, with a high resistance to low and high temperatures, resistance to inclement weather, UV resistance ozone It offers optimal sealing solutions for protection of water, moisture, dust components.
In MEREFSA we can design any project, test and customize according to the needs of our customers.
