Phlox Corp. - high technology products for backlighting and industrial lighting PHLOX
Since 1996, Phlox Corp. has registered 7 international patents for its technology, applications and production machines. It has received just as many prizes (from the press, banks, public institutions...) rewarding the company’s capacity for innovation and its exemplary development.
The principle
PHLOX® uses optical processes. It is composed of a polymethacrylate pipe lighted by a linear source made up of Light Emitting Diodes (L.E.D.).
Our manufacturing process (CO2 laser) enables us to combine refraction and diffusion which improves backlight luminance. Up to 90% of the light injected is reemitted on the surface. Thanks to the use of mathematical models, PHLOX® emits light in a determinist and perfectly controlled manner.
Better uniformity: the precision of the mathematical model and the micro prisms (< 30 µ) enable us to reach up to +/- 5 % uniformity for the backlight surface.
The luminance of PHLOX® can be up to twice as high as that of optical pipes that use refraction or diffusion (e.g. : laptops).
Whatever the field of application for our technology, PHLOX® provides much more than lighting
Better uniformity : the precision of the mathematical model and the micro prisms enable us to reach up to ±5% uniformity for the backlight surface.
Higher luminance : up to 90% of the light injected is reemitted on the surface, up to twice as much as light pipes using refraction or diffusion.
More compact design : our technology is well suited to the manufacture of very thin pipes (0.5 mm). This feature enables us to create extra flat products in response to the need to reduce bulk for various applications.
Better efficiency : our backlights use less energy which, combined with their exceptional luminance, means they are the most efficient on the market (lumen per watt ratio).
Longer life cycle : the combination of our technology and the quality of our designs ensures constant control of temperatures and provides our products with an exceptional life cycle.
And a faster response : 48 hours at the most for delivery of a standard product and 5 weeks on the average for the design and delivery of a prototype or custom made product.
