Dichroic Glass Filters

Designed to meet the demands of the lighting industry, LEE Filters dichroic glass filters are produced by the vacuum deposition of layers of thin metal films onto a substrate of borofloat glass.

Available in a thickness of 3.3mm and 1.7mm, the production process creates spectacularly clear and pure colours. The glass filters will not fade and should withstand temperatures up to 371°C.

Professional Colours and Optional Diffusion

Chosen after extensive research among design professionals, the Glass Series colour palette provides a range of consistent, repeatable colours. This includes subtle, less saturated tones suitable for architectural use.

All the colours within the range are also available as frosted filters, enabling you to add colour and diffusion in the one filter.

Framed Glass Filters

Framed Glass

Our framed filters come in a lightweight aluminium frame, available both plain or in a colour to suit all the popular lighting fixtures in the architectural and theatrical industries.

An innovative silicone gasket completely surrounds the glass, providing protection from both mechanical and thermal shock.

Frosted Dichroic Glass Filters

  • Frosted Glass - Before

    Unfrosted Glass

  • Frosted Glass - After

    Frosted Glass

Diffusion within these filters softens the light beam giving a more even and graduated lighting effect.

All the colours within the glass series are available as Frosted Dichroic Glass filters, enabling the lighting designer to add colour and diffusion with one filter.

Frosted Colour Dichroic Filters are colour-coated on one side by a vacuum deposition of metal film, and diffused on the other side. The diffusion creates an even soft frost, removing the halo effect when the frosted side is placed on the fixture outwards, away from the lamp.

The dichroic coating is able to withstand temperatures up to 371°C, allowing the colour to last for years without fading.

Available for MR16 and PAR 16 circular light fittings as well as custom shapes and sizes.
