Custom Gobos – Materials & Sizes
Materials & sizes
Matched to your design and your fixture
The right material and size depend on your artwork, your colours and the projector you are running. Here is how to choose — and we are always happy to recommend.
Materials
Steel, glass or plastic
Steel
Crisp single-colour projection in any profile fixture. Ideal for logos and text. Closed shapes and fine loops use small “bridges” to hold the design together.
Glass
Photographic detail, greyscale shading and full colour, with no bridging. Perfect for complex artwork, halftones and multi-colour branding.
Plastic
A budget option for LED fixtures and short-term use. Great for one-off events where the gobo will not run hot for long periods.
Any size, any fixture
From 10 mm to 300 mm image area
Gobos are sized by their image area (IA) — the part that actually projects. We make them as small as 10 mm IA for compact and moving fixtures, right up to 300 mm IA for large architectural and outdoor projectors. Tell us your fixture and we match the size and holder for you.
- Works in profile / ellipsoidal-style fixtures and gobo projectors
- We match the gobo and holder to your exact fixture
- With proper use, steel and glass gobos last for years
How it works
From artwork to finished gobo
Send your artwork
Email your logo or design, or ask us for a template. Vector (ai/eps/pdf) or a clean image at 400 px or larger.
We advise material & size
We recommend steel, glass or plastic, match the size to your fixture, and flag anything that needs bridging.
We make it
Your gobo is produced to spec, typically within 1–2 weeks depending on material and design.
Project with confidence
Drop it into your fixture and project your brand or design, crisp and clear.
