Why Neon Flex is Better Than Traditional Neon

Discover the Modern Glow Upgrade

Introduction: The New Era of Neon Lighting

Neon signs have long been a symbol of vibrant light and artistic expression. But the classic glass neon tubes come with some challenges—fragility, high energy use, and tricky installation.

Enter Neon Flex: a modern, flexible, and energy-efficient alternative that’s transforming how we light up our spaces. At Chronos Lights, we’re excited to show you why neon flex is the smarter, safer, and more versatile choice.

• Perfect for custom shapes, curves, and intricate designs without the risk.
  
  

2. Energy Efficiency

• Neon flex uses LED technology, consuming far less electricity than traditional neon gas tubes.
  
  

• Lower energy use means cost savings and a smaller carbon footprint.
