1. Extremely low price, perfect for temporary use
The biggest advantage of plastic ceiling lights is their price. They are typically 50% cheaper than acrylic models and up to 70% cheaper than glass ceiling lights. This makes them ideal for:
- Temporary housing: no regret leaving them behind when moving.
- Secondary spaces: storage rooms, hallways, balconies or stairwells.
- Emergency replacement: perfect as a temporary light while waiting for repairs.
2. Ultra-lightweight, effortless installation
Plastic is even lighter than acrylic: a 30 cm light usually weighs less than 0.5 kg, making it 20–30% lighter. Benefits include:
- Safe for weak ceilings such as plasterboard or wood.
- One-person installation without risk of dropping.
- Lower chance of detaching due to reduced weight stress.
3. Shock-resistant and safer
Plastic does not shatter like glass. It is more resistant to daily bumps, making it suitable for:
- Homes with children or pets.
- Corridors and entryways where lights can be easily hit.
- Children’s rooms or frequently used spaces.
