Electroluminescent technology is low power and eco-friendly and used for all types of lighting projects.

The Panels are flexible and as thin as a laminated sheet of paper.

They can also be trimmed if you need to create a particular size or shape.

Electroluminescent Panels are thin (less than 1/2mm) laminated sheets that glow on one side.

The technology has developed a lot since it was researched in the 1950s to be used in early radar monitors.

Now, EL Panels have proven to be robust and versatile and have many uses from backlighting displays, architectural highlights, theatrical props and safety lighting.
