Mystrid Flex is a versatile family of flexible linear LED neon luminaires designed to deliver uninterrupted, dot-free illumination in a wide range of architectural applications. Offering a seamless lit appearance with end-to-end mounting, the system creates continuous clean lines of light that enhance façades, building surrounds, furniture details, and handrails. Developed with flexibility in mind, Mystrid Flex is available in two bending directions—top bend and side bend—allowing integration into even the most complex geometries and architectural details.
Constructed from high-grade opal silicone, Mystrid Flex combines mechanical strength with long-lasting visual performance. The encapsulation ensures uniform diffusion, eliminating visible LED dots and providing a soft, comfortable beam across a 120-degree angle. It is engineered for durability, with UV resistance, IK07 impact protection, IP67 sealing, and a C5 corrosion resistance rating compliant with ISO 9223:2012. These properties make the luminaire ideal for demanding outdoor installations while maintaining optical clarity and consistency over time.
The range is offered in multiple light quality options to suit different design requirements. Static white is available in 2700K, 3000K, and 4000K, while Dynamic White extends the range from 2700K to 5300K for tunable ambiance. RGBW models incorporate a 3000K white LED for balanced, vibrant colour mixing. With a CRI of 90 and 2-step MacAdam binning, Mystrid Flex delivers excellent colour consistency and high-quality illumination suitable for both functional and decorative use.
Lengths are highly adaptable, with standard modules in 0.3m, 0.6m, 0.9m, 1.2m, 3m, 6m, and 10m. The luminaire can also be cut on site to precise increments—50mm for static and dynamic white, or 62.5mm for RGBW—ensuring tailored integration into any project. Cut ends can be resealed with injection-moulded end caps, available for both bending directions, preserving the luminaire’s IP67 rating and seamless appearance. Cable entry options from the front, bottom, or side further support flexible mounting and discreet integration.
Installation is straightforward and adaptable, with accessories that simplify alignment and bending. Aluminium profiles provide rigid straight-line installation, while clips allow smooth curves within a minimum 240mm bending diameter. Together, these options enable designers to create both linear and free-form shapes without compromising light quality. For power and control, Mystrid Flex operates with external drivers and supports multiple control methods, including simple on/off switching, DALI dimming, and DMX for advanced colour and scene management.
Technically, Mystrid Flex is an extruded aluminium luminaire built to Electrical Class III standards, delivering a lifetime of 50,000 hours at L70 when operated at 50°C. It performs reliably in ambient temperatures from –25ºC to +45ºC and is classified RG0 for photobiological safety. RGBW options include an integrated 3000K white LED to balance dynamic colour applications with functional white light.
Every detail of the system is engineered for seamless performance, from the silicone encapsulation that ensures continuous lines of light when installed end-to-end, to the injection-moulded end caps that conceal cables and maintain a flawless appearance. The combination of robust construction, flexible installation, and advanced optical performance makes Mystrid Flex an ideal choice for architectural designers seeking an adaptable, high-quality linear lighting solution that blends seamlessly into any environment.
