How lighting tiles works?

LED lighting integrated into tiles operates through two primary methods: as grout and as backlighting. The technology behind these innovative LED tiles and light panels allows for versatile applications, transforming floors and walls into interactive and visually captivating elements.

1. Grout Integration: LED lighting can be seamlessly embedded within the grout lines between tiles, creating a subtle yet impactful lighting effect. This integration method involves carefully concealing LED light bars or panels within the grout, allowing for a uniform distribution of light across the tiled surface. The LEDs, with their superior brightness and true-to-life contrast, are set up to generate varying intensities and colors, offering a customizable experience. This setup ensures durability, as the LEDs are protected within the structure of the tile, ensuring reliability and long-term performance.
2. Backlighting Technology: LED backlighting involves positioning LED panels or systems behind translucent ceramic tiles to create an enchanting illumination effect. By leveraging the tiles’ translucent properties, the LED lighting serves as a backlight, showcasing the tiles’ visual appeal and creating a mesmerizing ambiance. This setup delivers exceptional visual resolution and contrast, engaging customers and visitors in various settings, from lobbies to interactive displays. The backlighting system allows for interactive LED floor or wall tiles, enabling designs to be customized through apps or remote controls. Users can alter the brightness, color, and visual effects effortlessly, ensuring a dynamic and interactive experience.

Both methods, whether integrated into grout or as backlighting, utilize cutting-edge LED technology. The LED systems boast innovative RGB configurations, ensuring a wide spectrum of colors and superior brightness levels. Moreover, the setup offers energy efficiency, reducing power consumption while delivering brighter and more engaging displays.

For installation and setup, LED tile systems provide a seamless process, offering design freedom and adaptability. Whether creating an LED video wall, an interactive LED floor, or a customizable LED display, the system is versatile and adaptable to various spaces. The LED panels can be designed to fit any shape or size, from flat surfaces to curved installations, allowing for innovative concepts and designs

How to install leds for tiles as backlight and grout.

Option 1: Directly On LED

• Suitability: Recommended for installing a single slab or a cut piece.
• Process:
  1. Fix LED strip lights on a white wall.
  2. Maintain a 4-6 cm gap between the LED strips and the slab to prevent the dots of the LED strip light from being visible through the slab.
  3. Affix the slab onto the frame’s perimeter using a transparent adhesive specified in the technical data sheet.
  4. Avoid spreading the adhesive in the central area of the slab.
  5. Attach a frame or profile around the slab’s perimeter to secure it and cover any visible adhesive shadows.

Option 2: On a Transparent Hard Surface (Glass, Plexiglass, or Light Box)

• Suitability: Recommended for multiple slabs or cut pieces or for a more stable installation.
• Process:
  1. Fix LED strip lights or a light box on a white wall.
  2. If using LED strips, place the glass or Plexiglass surface at a minimum distance of 2-4 cm from the LED strips to prevent visibility of the LED dots through the slab.
  3. Thoroughly clean the chosen surface before applying transparent adhesive as specified in the technical data sheet.
  4. Apply the adhesive evenly on the back of the slab using a spatula to ensure a homogeneous layer.
  5. Attach a frame or profile around the slab’s perimeter to secure it in place.
