Neon signs were once your only option. But, now that LED is here, there is a better way to accomplish the same look with real advantages. “Flex neon” has a neon look that costs less than a traditional neon sign, a gas-filled glass tube. As LED’s power these signs, the power consumption is significantly less, and LED’s are known to last longer than traditional neon signs.
Neon is a noble gas that we can inject into glass tubes. It carries light through the tube, creating the lovely neon glow look you’re probably familiar with. Traditionalists love the look of neon, and in some sign types, it creates a unique outcome. You can still find many exit signs and open signs in traditional neon, with an orange or red glow.

With flex neon, we can create unique and memorable designs, in many colors, at various sizes and indoor/outdoor applications, and can use a remote to turn the sign on/off, dim it, or make it blink.
