Silicone LED Neon Flex Strip- Top View (all Sizes)
Top-view design directs light precisely upward, making it perfect for illuminating ceilings, coves, or overhead spaces without wasting light on unnecessary directions. Silicone diffusion ensures no visible LED dots, creating a high-end, seamless aesthetic.
Product Overview
A top-emitting silicone neon flex strip designed for ceiling coves, cornices, and recessed channels where light must go straight up and the fixture must remain invisible. The LED chips are mounted at 90 degrees to the strip surface, directing output into the ceiling plane instead of spilling sideways. Food-grade high-transparency silicone encapsulates the flexible FR-4 substrate, providing a continuous line without visible LED dots. Rated IP67, it withstands washdown areas, UV exposure, and corrosion near kitchens and pools. Available in 12V or 24V DC, with LED types 2835, 5050, 3528, 2216 SMD or COB, and colour options from 1800K to 7000K, RGB or RGBW, with LED quantity per metre customisable to match project brightness needs.
Key Benefits
- Top-facing emission at 90 degrees directs light into the ceiling plane instead of the cove wall
- Silicone encapsulation removes visible LED dots, creating a continuous line at close viewing distance
- IP67 rating allows use in bathrooms, kitchens, and covered outdoor areas
- Minimum bending radius of 10mm in one direction enables installation on mild curves
- PWM dimming at 20kHz or above ensures flicker-free performance on video and mobile capture
- CRI Ra above 80, 90 or 95 available for accurate colour rendering in retail and display
- LED quantity per metre is customisable to match the required brightness without over-lighting
- One silicone body covers both 12V and 24V DC, simplifying driver stock across a project
Problems It Solves
- Side-emitting strips waste output on the cove wall instead of the ceiling being lit
- PVC strips show individual LED dots when the cove is viewed from a shallow angle
- Non-encapsulated strips fail early in bathrooms, kitchens and covered outdoor runs
- Low-frequency dimming causes banding when the space is filmed or photographed
- Fixed LED density forces the specifier to over-light or under-light the run
Application Scenarios
- Ceiling coves and cornices in living rooms, bedrooms and hallways requiring soft indirect light
- Under-cabinet runs facing upward to illuminate kitchen countertops without glare
- Bathroom ceiling edges where humidity rules out non-encapsulated strips
- Retail, restaurant and hotel interiors where the light line is part of the architectural design
- Building cornices, eaves and facade recesses outlining architectural contours at night
- Bookcase top edges, headboard trims and display cabinets in furniture lighting
- Patio ceilings, pergola edges and porch overhangs shielded from direct rain
Who It Is For
- Lighting distributors stocking a neon flex line for architectural and residential projects
- Interior contractors specifying continuous cove lighting with no visible dots
- OEM brands needing a silicone strip cut and terminated to their own run lengths
- Project buyers sourcing an IP67 strip for humid or semi-outdoor installations

Honest Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| PVC neon flex | Silicone stays flexible and UV-stable outdoors but costs more per metre than PVC |
|---|---|
| Side-view silicone strip | Top view puts light into the ceiling plane; side view is the better choice for wall-facing coves |
| Bare SMD strip in an aluminium profile | The silicone body removes dotting without a separate diffuser, but the profile is not user-serviceable |
Use Guide
Getting the Best Out of It On Site
- Keep bends in a single direction and above the 10mm minimum radius to avoid stressing the encapsulation
- Select 24V for long continuous runs to limit voltage drop across the line
- Specify CRI 90 or 95 where the strip lights merchandise, food or skin tones
- Use a PWM dimmer at 20kHz or above where the space will be filmed
- Treat outdoor use as covered installation; IP67 handles rain exposure, not sustained immersion

Questions About Silicone LED Neon Flex Strip- Top View (all Sizes)
What is the minimum order quantity?
Small order quantities are accepted. Send the run lengths and profile size you need and we will confirm the minimum for that configuration.
Can the LED density and cut length be customised?
Yes. LED quantity is customisable, and the strip is cut and terminated to the run lengths on your drawing.
Which voltage should I order?
12V and 24V DC are both available. 24V is generally specified for longer continuous runs because voltage drop across the line is lower.
Is this strip suitable for bathrooms or outdoor use?
It is rated IP67 and IP68 depending on the version, with UV and corrosion resistance, so bathrooms, kitchens and covered outdoor runs are within scope.
Will the strip show LED dots in a shallow cove?
No. The silicone encapsulation acts as the diffusion layer, so the run reads as a continuous line rather than individual points.
What colour temperatures and CRI are available?
1800K to 7000K single colour plus RGB and RGBW, with CRI Ra above 80, 90 or 95 depending on what the project specifies.
What payment methods do you accept?
Different payment methods are accepted. Confirm the terms with our sales team when the order is quoted.
