Benefits for Lighting and Luminaire Designers

Every time a light ray is reflected, a portion will be absorbed by the reflecting surface. Many current fixture designs involve multiple reflections to achieve good aesthetics for indirect lighting or tight cavities. Used in such situations, a high performance reflector will minimize absorbance from multiple bounces and maximize the usable exiting light. A small difference in reflectance can make big difference in lighting efficiency.

For typical indoor lighting applications, many designers would like to present a uniform, soft lighting experience, avoiding unpleasant glare and uneven “hot spots.” This becomes even more critical with LED light fixtures where diffuse reflectance is needed to hide multiple lamp images and mix color.
