- LEXAN filmLEXAN™ films are made of a Polycarbonate material in a number of configurations, including coatings for anti-glare or anti-fog, uncoated for clarity, textured, display films for enhancing light transmission, flame retardant films for electronics applications, and security card films.
- Living ColoursLiving Colours is a colourful artificial grass carpet material designed especially for outdoor use. The soft durable fibres from Namgrass are made from polyethylene are stitched to a perforated sub layer. The material is resistant to UV-light and Sea water and is available in a wide array of colours.
- R-cast ICER-cast Ice is an acrylic, custom cast, textured material (polymethyl methacrylate) which simulates the appearance of ice without any repetitive patterns. It has similar light diffusing qualities as real ice. Available in multiple sizes, colours, textures, surface treatments and edge finishes.
- Atex ColourAtex Gold is a silicone-coated, high-strength glass fabric containing a gold-like brass pigment. Atex Gold is very flexible, strong, durable, fire retardant and non-toxic. It is also UV light stable and reflective. This material is suitable for use in stage and façade covers, ceiling constructions, etc. Furthermore, it can be used to create special light effects when illuminated from one side.

- VeroMetal® AntimicrobialVeroMetal® Antimicrobial is a metal coating with a stainless steel appearance, based on an alloy of copper. The coating does not oxidize and has a self-cleaning action. A surface coated with the finish achieves an impressive killing rate of 99% in less than 30 minutes in UV light, and under an hour in the dark.
- Miro SilverNormal anodised aluminum lighting grades have a total reflectivity of up to 87%. To increase or enhance this total reflectivity to another level, several nanometer-thin optical coatings must be applied to the aluminum surface in a vacuum. Normal anodised aluminum lighting grades have a total reflectivity of up to 87%. To increase or enhance this total reflectivity to another level, several nanometer-thin optical coatings must be applied to the aluminum surface in a vacuum. MIRO SILVER has a reflectivity of 98%.
- Atmospheric WoodAtmospheric Wood is a research project based on a historic contact printing technique, commonly called blueprint. The key element is sunlight and its interaction with an UV light sensitive solution. While exposed to light, the process transforms untreated wood into an assortment of blue hues. In addition, a maze of pointillist patterns is created using a scattered application of natural minerals.

- Tennâge Wood VeneerTennâge wood veneer is the patented, flexible and durable wood veneer sheets which make it possible to sew and form in just about any shapes. Since Tennage is thin enough to transmit light, yet flexible and durable enough to fold, bend, and sew, it is used for lighting products, electronic devices such as computers and mobile phones, handbags, stationeries, and much more.
- Tennage specialThin veneer of inlayed wood, new flexible and durable wood veneer sheets which make it possible to sew and form in just about any shapes. The veneer is 0.2mm, the thinnest veneer on the market and thin enough to transmit light. The sheets are water and UV resistant, plus environmentally friendly using eco-conscious resins and utilizing wood remnants.
- Acrylic CoutureThis material can be used for a variety of applications including furniture, displays, tabletops, ceilings etc. Acrylic couture gives a 30-year guarantee on UV resistance and 100-years against polymer degradation based on high density . The cross-linked polymers for high scratch resistance and many chemicals, along with the special nanoparticles, guarantee an extremely efficient scattering and reflection.
- Electroluminescent WireElectroluminescent wire (often abbreviated to EL wire) is a thin copper wire coated in a phosphor which glows when an alternating current is applied to it. The EL wire is lightweight and flexible, has low energy consumption, and can provide 360 degrees of illumination. UV and water resistant grades are available which allows EL wire to be used for both indoor and outdoor applications.
- LUCEM StarlightThe irregular distribution of translucent fibres in concrete provide, when backlit, the impression of a starlit night. Fibres with different diameters are integrated in high-performance concrete and transmit the light. Fibres with bigger diameters make the single light spots appear brighter. The concrete disappears into the background.
- Clear-PEP and AIR-boardThe combination of a patented core production process and Design Composite's adhesive technology results in composite panels which combine lightness in weight with extremely high rigidity and unique optical features.
- TIMax GL Glass fibre insulationTIMax GL is a glass fibre insulation material that enhances the heat insulation (U-value) of profiled glass façade systems. TIMax GL is both translucent and light scattering. Due to this light scattering effect, even deep rooms can be illuminated evenly. TIMax GL additionally offers sun protection because it reduces the solar heat penetrating a window in the summer. .
