The TLS System is comprised of LED strips, positive and negative PCB holders/locks, anchors and tensioners, and u-channels used to support the anchors in retrofits or in non-standard profiles. Different power supply types, with the option of dimming if requested, are also included. Standard LED strips may be single-sided composed of 10 LEDs or double-sided composed of 20 LEDs (10 per side). Nevertheless, these strips may be trimmed to different sizes or placed in sequence to produce any size display and as such, TLS has no limit of size in width or height. Furthermore, keeping a uniform distance from the LEDs to the banner or display and spacing LEDs exactly 60mm from each other permits for effectively maintaining even light density while eliminating all hotspots, shadowing and undesired fading. Furthermore, these strips may be trimmed to different sizes or placed in sequence to produce any size display and as such, TLS has no limit of size in width or height. This system requires a low voltage and customizable color temperatures (kelvins). TLS is thus the solution to backlighting all visual presentations no matter the size or location.


The uniquely patented Tension LED system (TLS) is the innovative solution to light and design in all milieus by providing original lighting that enhances backlit visual presentations.


Powered by cable tensioners and conductive anchors, independent LED strips are electrically connected to and extending from a first and second cable receiving a current. These strips can illuminate many materials including onyx, fabric, glass and acrylic – excellent for all backlighting needs. By utilizing lower or higher lumens and different color temperatures, an ambient glow or an augmented brightness can be achieved. A dimmable system is also available to adjust preferred lighting. This unique design thus allows for illuminating displays in a uniform manner that completely eliminates hotspots and shadowing.


With over 20 years experience in the field of visual communications and providing turnkey solutions, Media Graph manufactured a product to solve the challenges of the market when it comes to efficient, large light boxes that guarantee low power consumption, easy shipping and installation. Its advantages nevertheless continue to be numerous. Not only ideal for retrofit, easy to assemble, eliminating hotspots, and consuming 60% less energy than current systems, the collapsible and portable design of TLS facilitates and provides efficient and simple transportation. This product is also fully customizable due to its curving and bending capabilities, includes special UV coating to protect electronic components for outdoor applications, and can be custom-fitted to any size display due to its minimal and lightweight hardware. The TLS can be made single or double-sided without compromising the frames width, and wall mounted, free standing, or hanging.


The Tension LED System is the technology of tomorrow, today, opening up many new design options, some of which were previously inconceivable. With TLS, its unbeatable manufacturing ingenuity, sustainability, and capacity to imitate the vital effects of daylight, no project is too small or too large to bring to light.
