Sensio Lighting: Choosing the Right LED Strip

Sensio Lighting: Choosing the Right LED Strip

 

LED strip lighting has become a popular feature in modern interiors, offering both practical task lighting and a clean, high-end finish. It enhances visibility, highlights key design features and helps create a consistent look across cabinetry and fitted furniture.

Sensio Lighting offers a range of high-quality solutions designed specifically for interior and furniture applications, making it a popular choice among the customer and the trade. 

Let’s take a closer look at the available options we stock, exploring their key features and where they work best across different types of furniture.

 

 

 

 

Polar X - Flexible, Continuous Light

Polar X is a free-cut LED strip designed for applications where flexibility is important. It can be cut at any point along the strip, making it useful for projects where exact measurements are difficult or where minimal waste is preferred.

It uses COB (Chip on Board) technology to produce a continuous line of light without visible LED dots. This removes the need for additional diffusers or profiles in many installations.

Key Features:

  • Free-cut design for maximum flexibility 
  • Continuous, dot-free light output 
  • Available in natural white and warm white 
  • Supplied in 3m, 5m, and 10m lengths 
  • 24V system for consistent performance

Best suited for: straight runs, plinth lighting, and under-cabinet applications where a smooth, continuous line of light is required.

 

Radiant - Suitable for Curves and Recessed Fitting

Radiant LED strip is designed for installations that require the lighting to follow curves or fit neatly into routed channels. Its flexible silicone body allows it to be easily pushed into+6 grooves or surface mounted where needed.

The LEDs are side-mounted, which allows the strip to bend easily around corners while still producing an even line of light. Radiant also features pre-soldered cables at both ends, allowing the strip to be split into two usable sections for added convenience.

Key Features:

  • Flexible silicone body for curved and detailed areas 
  • Side-mounted LEDs for easier bending 
  • Cut points every 50mm for precise sizing 
  • Available in cool white, natural white, and warm white 
  • Supplied in 5m reels 
  • 24V system for stable, even illumination

Best suited for: curved cabinetry, feature lighting and recessed installations.

 

Razor - Discreet, Low-Profile Lighting

Razor is an ultra-slim LED strip designed for installations where space is limited or where a more discreet finish is required. At 2mm thick, it can be fitted into a narrow channel cut with a standard saw blade. Despite its compact size, Razor delivers a consistent, diffused light output, making it ideal for subtle, integrated lighting within furniture.

Key features:

  • 2mm slim profile for minimal visibility 
  • Cuttable every 31mm for precise fitting 
  • Produces a consistent, dot-free light 
  • Available in natural white and warm white 
  • Supplied in 3m and 5m lengths 
  • 24V system for reliable performance 

Best suited for: under worktops, inside cabinets, wardrobes and other areas where lighting should remain subtle and unobtrusive.

 

 

Choosing the Right LED Strip

Selecting the right LED strip depends on the specific requirements of your project. To achieve the best results, consider:

  • Whether the installation involves straight runs or curved surfaces 
  • The required brightness and colour temperature 
  • Available installation space and mounting method 
  • Compatibility with drivers, sensors and lighting controls
