After meticulous crafting, the Roscolux Cool Blue, 20x24" Color Effects Lighting Filter emerges as a top-tier choice for professionals seeking high-quality lighting solutions. This filter, presenting a delicate greenish-blue hue, is ideal for creating general washes or area lighting, and is particularly effective in generating an icy ambiance on stage. With a light transmission rate of 67%, it ensures optimal illumination control.
Roscolux, a flagship product range from Rosco, is renowned for its longevity, even under the intense heat of theatrical lights. This durability is achieved through an innovative tri-extrusion process that seals the colored layer between two ultra-thin layers of clear film. This unique manufacturing method significantly reduces dye migration, thereby extending the filter's effective lifespan.
Internationally recognized as "Supergel", Roscolux is the most widely used filter range globally. It is constructed from two distinct types of plastic. Over 65% of the filter is made from co-extruded polycarbonate plastic, while the rest is deep-dyed polyester. This composition sets it apart from ordinary color filters, which are typically made by surface coating clear polyester plastic film. In such filters, the color, essentially painted onto the surface, can easily be removed by heat or physical abrasion, leading to rapid fading and scratching.
The Roscolux Cool Blue, 20x24" Color Effects Lighting Filter, however, stands up to these challenges, maintaining its color integrity over time. It is available in sheets of 20in. X 24in. (50cm x 61cm) or rolls of 24in. X 25ft. (61cm x 7.62m). For those requiring larger dimensions, Rosco also offers the Cinelux line of filters in rolls of 48in. X 25ft. (122cm x 7.62m). This product's versatility and durability make it an indispensable tool in any professional lighting setup.
