5 Benefits of a LED light box

Lightboxes offer several advantages over other types of storefront advertising.

  1. Energy-efficient: compared to fluorescent lighting, LED lightboxes consume much less energy. This can save up to €50.00 per year per square meter of lightbox.
  2. Stylish: thanks to the use of LED modules, the boxes can be made much thinner. The most common depth now is 10 cm, providing a much more elegant appearance compared to fluorescent lightboxes, which are often 17 cm or more in depth.
  3. Visible: in comparison to unlit advertising such as cut letters, lightboxes are far more visible at night.
  4. Ease of installation: in most cases, lightboxes are easy to install. Additionally, maintenance is simpler compared to box letter signage.
  5. Versatile shapes: the lightboxes are custom-made in rectangular, round, oval, or other shapes, offering flexibility in design.

There are various terms for illuminated advertising, such as light boards, light box, illuminated displays, advertising boxes, illuminated panels, and light frames. These tools provide striking visibility and grab the attention of passersby both during the day and at night.

Customize your light box

Custom lightboxes made for your unique logo are a popular and effective way to enhance a company’s visibility. These lightboxes can be tailored to various shapes, materials, and finishes to perfectly align with a brand’s identity and the specific requirements of the location. Consideration is given to visibility distance and the architectural possibilities of the site.

A light box ise available in various shapes, including:

  • Round and oval: these shapes offer an elegant, rounded appearance that often fits well with modern or sleek designs. They can also evoke a nostalgic feeling depending on the logo style and finish.
  • Logo-shaped: a light box that precisely follow the contours of the logo create a striking, custom-made look. These lightboxes are ideal for businesses looking to emphasize their logo as a central element of their branding.
  • Positive routed with backlit letters: In this technique, the letters are routed out of the material of the lightbox and backlit, making the letters clearly visible against the background. This provides a luxurious and professional look, especially at night, offering a subtle yet refined way to showcase the brand name or message.

Each shape and design has an impact on the appearance of the building and how the company is perceived:

  • Modern, sleek look: lightboxes with straight lines or simple geometric shapes like rectangles or circles often convey a modern character.
  • Exclusive look: the use of backlit letters or positive routed shapes adds an exclusive, high-end effect to the façade, radiating professionalism and sophistication.
  • Creative and striking appearance: a light box is  shaped like the logo can give a playful and creative image, which works especially well for brands aiming to stand out or convey an informal style.

By utilizing custom shapes, lighting, and finishes, the light box not only grabs the attention of passersby but also enhances the brand’s recognizability and presence, both during the day and at night.

This profile, along with internal mounting brackets, ensures that the frame does not bend at larger sizes and remains solid. Because we produce everything in-house, we can deliver an affordable top-quality lightbox.

The LED lighting we use for our lightboxes shines not only forward but also to the sides. This ensures even light distribution and a beautiful illumination of the plexiglass panels with your advertising message. Our lightboxes have a depth of 10 cm for both single-sided and double-sided versions. Special orders are available upon request.

Round light box

Round and oval lightboxes attract extra attention due to their distinctive shape. A round light box is often used as double-sided protruding lightboxes and are ideal for making a logo or brand mark stand out. These lightboxes are available in both single-sided and double-sided versions, with sizes up to 2 meters. Breweries are major users of round lightboxes; they often choose to mount their logo in a round shape on the facade of a bar or restaurant.

The double-sided version can be only 12 cm deep, as the LED modules are cleverly placed in the casing at a precise angle. This saves up to 8 cm compared to traditional lighting methods. Even with warm white light (3000K), backlighting is possible in a double-sided version. The power supply is neatly integrated into the frame, so the light box is delivered ready to use, plug & play.

It provides visibility and a professional appearance, making it ideal for business advertising, events, promotions, and informational signage.

A corner light box is a type of lightbox designed specifically for installation at corners or edges of buildings or structures. This lightbox is typically used to attract attention from two directions, making it ideal for locations where visibility from both sides is important. Corner lightboxes are often used in high-traffic areas such as busy streets or shopping centers, as they allow businesses to display their signage to customers approaching from different angles. They are available in both single-sided and double-sided versions and can be customized with various designs, lighting, and sizes.

A dusk sensor, also known as a light-dark switch, ensures that a lightbox automatically turns on when it gets dark and turns off when there is sufficient daylight. This saves energy and increases efficiency by ensuring the lighting only operates when needed, without manual intervention.

Milky plexiglass is used for a light box because it ensures even light distribution without the light source being directly visible.

We opt for a thickness of 4 mm and a light transmission of 26%.

  • Daylight white (6000K-6500K): this gives off a very bright, almost bluish light and is perfect for an industrial or technological look.

RGB LEDs: with RGB LED lighting, you can adjust the color as desired. This offers great flexibility, as you can choose different colors for various occasions or change the look of your lightbox regularly.
