Orluna Duet
Duet is a new double straight-edged wallwasher, powered by Orluna’s proprietary Origin Engine, which offers real colour rendering with CRI 98 and R9 99. With colours seen as intended, this innovative wallwasher is designed to create a beautiful lit effect on both walls of a corridor simultaneously. A selection of colour temperatures are available for specification. Offering 943lm at 11.4W, this 80mm fitting is an ideal addition to the professional designer’s toolkit.
Intra Lighting Tracker
Tracker is made to track fluid architecture. Designed to go beyond the horizontal, Tracker can endlessly move through space with uncompromising agility. High precision installation work is simple due to standard construction elements. Combining it with standard modules, it can perfectly fit your design. A flexible PCB chain and an endless diffusor offer superb light quality with no light gaps. Because it is low, it doesn’t weaken the ceiling’s load capacity. Tracker is a light with high visual impact.
Targetti ISO
Designed by Gensler, ISO is a luminaire that can be suspended or ceiling-installed. Available with direct or direct/indirect emission, ISO offers two effect variants: diffused light and controlled light (UGR <19). The controlled UGR <19 emission offers maximum visual comfort, reducing shadows and reflections, making it ideal for workspaces. In the direct/indirect emission version, ISO emits a line of light from the upper part to give a soft and homogenous effect also on the ceiling.
Linea Light Group I-LèD Industrial
Prolamp is the latest generation industrial projector. Made in die-cast ENAB-44300 aluminium, powder coated and UV ray stabilised, with further open-pore anodising pre-treatment that guarantees outstanding corrosion resistance. Characterised by an iridescence-free optics system in polished aluminium, it is available in two versions, for wall and suspension installation, with a wide range of powers (six variants, from 40W AC up to 180W AC), colour temperatures (3000K, 4000K, 5000K) and optics, to be chosen from medium flood, flood, wide flood and asymmetrical.
Lamp Lamptub 60
As part of a new range of fixtures designed to ‘make the office a place to feel at home’ without sacrificing the technical requirements of good architectural lighting, Lamptub 60 is a renewed version of a classic from Lamp that adapts to the needs of demanding spaces that are constantly evolving. Thanks to its lighting versatility and its mutiple installations options, the lighting system is particularly flexible and adaptable, especially in its track installation version.
Aldabra Hole
Hole is the new recessed spot from Italian brand Aldabra, launched in time for the brand’s 20th anniversary this year. Ceiling recessed with no glare, Hole is easy to install and remove. With a round or square body, simple magnetic mounting, 1W and 4W versions, a diameter of 25mm, available in 2700K, 3000K, 4000K, Hole is perfect to light any space with ambient, visually comfortable, natural light and a totally hidden lighting fixture. Hole can create a sky of stars ceiling effect in both general or accent lighting settings.
CLS Mika Colour Flow & Tunable White
The Mika Colour Flow series is available in white, RGBW/RGBA and Tunable White variants. The fixtures are delivered with a CLS LDC-407 DMX driver, with the optional possibility for wireless DMX or Casambi control. The Mika offers 58° vertical adjustability, while optics can be changed in seconds. CLS also manufactures a wide range of Jade rail fixtures, which are equipped with the same LED modules and optics. This enables lighting designers to combine the Mika and Jade series.
Unilamp Volga
Volga is a new series of robust, marine-grade stainless steel fixtures, featuring an underwater spotlight, in-ground uplight and spotlight. It utilises high power LEDs in 2700K, 3000K or 4000K, with high quality optical lenses offering narrow, medium, and wide, as well as elliptical light distribution. Volga is an ideal choice to illuminate swimming pools, decorative pools and fountains. To avoid installation issues, Volga is pre-wired and fitted with an anti-condensation device. The marine-grade 316 stainless steel body guarantees corrosion-free appearance throughout the product’s lifetime.
