How to choose a suitable lenticular for our usage?
We produce almost all the kinds of lenticular products to meet your needs. It ranges from 10-161 LPI.
*3 Parallax barrier film is also called "super lenticular" by some suppliers. It is a PET film printed black lines instead of the micro lens on the surface. The 3D effect is much better than the normal lenticular. And the image comes out much more clearly and sharply. So it is a very good choice to make posters with Parallax barrier film. But it must be lighted on the back because the light reflection of Parallax barrier film is much poorer than normal lenticular.

*1 LPI---Line per inch. It is one of the most important specifications about lenticular. LPI means the number of lenses installed in one-inch (2.54 cm) width. If we say, "We need 100 LPI lens," this means that we need the Lenticular lens that comes with 100 lens lines on each-inch width. In general, the smaller the Lenticular product (For viewing from short distance), the more lines are needed on the Lenticular lens.
