Quality Plastic Film and Plastic Sheets
FAQs about our Asymmetric Light Diffuser Film and Sheets
Can asymmetric light diffuser film be recycled? Yes it can, as long as it’s recycled with other polyester resin materials. Asymmetric light diffuser film can be recycled with any other materials that have this symbol.
Is our asymmetric light diffuser film biodegradable? No, it is not. The only biodegradable film product we offer is acetate film and sheets.
Does Asymmetric light diffuser film have good electrical properties? Sort of. Although it’s made out of polyester, it’s not meant for direct electrical exposure, and we don’t have any testing data on this product. For electrical applications, we recommend our Hazy DuraLar™ polyester film products. Please contact us today and we can help you with … Read more
Is asymmetric light diffuser film approved for direct and indirect skin contact? Although asymmetric light diffusers are perfectly safe for direct and indirect skin contact, they are not certified as such.

DFML can be printed on its gloss side, by Screen Printing, or Offset Lithography. DFML might be suitable for Solvent, Latex or UV Curable Inkjet printing, which are the only digital printing options could work on DFML. DO NOT USE DFML in any plain paper copier, laser printer, or other heat fusing digital printing technology.
Yes, DFML is Thermoformable. However the more you draw this film, the more the micro louvre lens surface gets distorted. This could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on the diffusion you are trying to create. For something like this, it is always best to experiment.
