Cover any angle or curved shape with uniform LED light

Tetra® Slim EdgeStrip’s low profile is designed to fit into the frame of shallow cabinet signs, meaning that curved, angular or custom-shaped signs can now benefit from LED technology! Unlike fluorescent tubes, which are hard to fit into unique signs and create shadows and striping, Tetra® Slim EdgeStrip can tightly follow the contour of the sign’s frame and distribute uniform light to every inch of the sign face. Protect the brand image of your business by using Tetra® Slim EdgeStrip LED lighting system in your sign.
