For me, I will think of our company—Imigy lighting, since the year 2008, we start to produce panel light, we have supply over 1.7 million pieces panel light to our customers all over the world, and our company can be regard as the panel light leader manufacturer in China. To meet with market needs and our customers requirement, we can produce panel light with edgelit version and backlit version, so what is the difference between edgelit panel light and backlit panel light? You may find the detailed introduction in the following paragraph:

What is edgelit panel light?

For edgelit panel light, which also can be called as edge-lit panel light, during the produce process, the LED chips will be good fixed on the edge of panel lightsaluminum housing, and under the help of the light guide plate, the lighting source will be lighting within downwards direction. Because of the special advantage of edge-lit lighting technology, the lighting source is deflected on the visible surface, and we can find the lighting source is very pleasant and softy.

For edgelit panel light, we recommend you our Fairy series panel light, its frame material is high quality aluminum, and the panel surface has no junction gap, white spots and dark areas, what an elegant appearance!

Another special selling point for our Fairy edgelit panel light is selectable installation method, such as suspension kit, recessed kit and ceiling surface mounted frame for option, which installation method are you prefer?

What is backlit panel light?

Different from edgelit panel light, the LED chips for backlit panel light are good fixed on the back plate of panel light, so you will find the lighting source will direct downwards over the panel light’ surface. To ensure the final lighting source is uniform, when design backlit panel light, our engineer will carefully calculate the distance between the LED chips and lighting area, and this is the reason why we will find the thickness for backlit panel light is bigger than edgelit panel lights. But compared with edgelit panel light, the production costs for backlit panel light is cheaper, so most of consumers would like to purchase backlit panel light to save more costs.

For backlit panel light, we recommend you our Swan backlit panel light, with the special extremely thin design, the height for entirety Swan backlit panel light is only 33mm, the beam angle for Swan backlit panel is 120°, with PMMA lens inside. The installation method for Swan backlit panel light has two different choice, such as the suspension and recessed installation for option.

Except the panel light, our company have more than eighteen years manufacturing experience for other kinds of LED lights, such as down lights, ceiling lights, track lights and linear lights and so on, and lots of consumers would like to purchase panel light with Imigy brand. So if you have purchase needs for LED lights, we recommend you Imigy brand, it is the best choice for you!
