Manufactured in Memphis, Tennessee, EcoShade IR reflective acrylic sheet offers architects and designers a fresh and revolutionary new product that helps conserve energy by reflecting more than 75 percent of the infrared radiation present in sunlight.

The innovative component in EcoShade is distributed uniformly throughout to ensure it will not heat or form out of the sheet. EcoShade is available in two thicknesses – .118 and .117.

The new color is contemporary Midnight Black plus Polar White is now offered in two new thicknesses of .315 and .472.

In addition to the new options with Midnight Black and Polar White, the extensive LuciteLux Frost line includes 15 other exciting color choices available in the U.S., in the Vivid, Urban and Hot color ranges.
