01 Material Profile
material description
Rowlux® is a multi-lensed effect thermoplastic film manufactured in polycarbonate, thermoplastic urethane (TPU), flexible PVC and cellulose propionate. Rowlux gets its effects of motion and dimension from thousands of minute parabolic lenses that are molded into the surface on both sides of the film. These lenses create a pattern of absorption and reflection of light which result in optical characteristics that are remarkable and unique. Shimmering silk, stardust sparkles, geometric repetition and three dimensional are some of the ways to describe this material.
