Colour Effect Filters

LEE provide high-quality lighting filters in a vast range of colours that are accurately consistent from batch to batch, long-lasting and dependable. Every filter is checked against a scientifically generated set of parameters. Colour effect filters are available in both rolls and sheets.

Colour Correction Filters

LEE offer a full range of Daylight, Tungsten, Fluorescent and Arc conversion / correction filters, as well as Neutral Density and Polarising filters for light source control. Our mired shift calculator can help you choose the right filter for your lighting application.

LEE also offers a range of Acrylic Panels that have been specifically designed for use over windows for correcting daylight. The panels exhibit the same degree of colour accuracy as the LEE range of lighting filters. They can be cut to size and installed permanently, or used on location time and time again. The range is made up colour temperature oranges and neutral densities, including combinations that are unique to LEE Filters.

Diffusion Filters

A range of solutions for softening and spreading a light beam and reducing the contrast ratio between highlight areas. The range includes polyester diffusion filters, frosts, flexi-frosts, grid cloths and spun materials all in different densities for a wide range of lighting effects.

Reflection Media

These silver and gold metallic surfaces, allow reflected light to be bounced to simply fill in shadow areas requiring a little more illumination. Alternative surface treatments allow for soft or hard reflections, and the white backing can also be used as a soft reflector. Perforated ‘scrim’ reflectors can produce very soft reflections and eliminate unwanted reflections from windows.

High Temperature Filters

LEE High Temperature (HT) lighting filter utilises both a different base material and surface coating to withstand hot light sources such as focussed spots or large fresnels. HT products have the same colour properties as standard gels but are less likely to hole or burn through in extreme conditions. All standard colours that are high heat absorbers are available in the HT range, as well as a selection of other popular colours within the colour effect range.

Glass Dichroic Filters

Specifically designed to meet the demands of the lighting industry, LEE glass dichroic filters are produced by the vacuum deposition of layers of thin metal films onto a substrate of borofloat glass. The glass is available in a thickness of either 3.3mm or 1.7mm.

This production process creates spectaculary clear pure colours that will not fade and should withstand temperatures up to 371°C.

There are 39 coloured filters within the range, all of which are available either unframed, framed or as custom shapes and sizes. Other products in the range include glass diffusion filters, UV blockers for absorbing Ultra-violet light and and a hot mirror for reflecting heat back into the light source.

Unframed filters are for use in small light fittings with integral holders or with the LEE range of filter holders.

The 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.

700 Series

A very special range, unique to LEE Filters. The 700 Series colours have been created by some of the top lighting designers working in stage, screen, television, cinema and architectural lighting. The designers are invited to work alongside our Research and Development team to create their own unique colours. Free of the constraints of existing products, the designers have been able to create exactly the mood or effect they require and produce solutions to specific problems. As the leading manufacturer of professional lighting filters, we can provide the technical skills needed to turn these creative concepts into reality.

Gobos

These lighting patterns can be used to enhance stage designs by projecting an image or pattern. The standard LEE gobos, made from high-quality stainless steel, come in hundreds of designs. Custom made steel gobos can normally be produced within 4 working days. LEE also supply custom gobos in glass from mono to full CMYK colouring.
