Outdoor lighting products

Spotlights in outdoor applications provide effective lighting. With different sizes, light distributions and a wide range of lumen classes, smaller objects can be illuminated just as impressively as monumental facades. Projectors are ideal for high-contrast accentuation without spill light. Floodlights and wallwashers achieve the uniform illumination of surfaces – even from long projection distances and under difficult installation conditions.

Vertical surfaces in an urban setting contribute significantly to the spatial definition of squares, road axes and buildings. From the point of view of perception psychology and design, façade lighting thus is a key element in the night lighting concept for urban areas. The wide range of façade luminaires allows for a variety of lighting solutions that range from grazing light on façades to pathway lighting.

Buildings and their surroundings require a range of lighting solutions for the various tasks from the functional lighting of pathways, stairs or open areas to the dramatic lighting of façades. Luminaire ranges with different but predominantly wide-beam, asymmetrical light distributions can be used to solve these problems. Each range of products with a uniform design provides the lighting designer with a choice of mounting and luminaire position options.

Architectural situations such as atriums, cantilever roofs, passages or bridges require ceiling-mounted luminaires designed to meet the demands of outdoor lighting. These ceiling-mounted luminaires for outdoor applications provide a variety of lighting characteristics, from downlights and directional luminaires to wallwashers.

The use of surface-mounted luminaires is often determined by practical considerations: For example, there might not be sufficient room to install recessed downlights in the ceiling. The conscious decision for a lighting concept with surface-mounted luminaires considerably reduces the level of installation work in solid ceilings or existing buildings, plus the lighting design can be flexibly adjusted to suit the given situation.

In-ground luminaires are noticed eye-catchers since the light source is positioned at ground level and the distinctive upward light direction immediately attracts attention. In this respect they also assume some tasks of directive lighting, e.g. by marking pathways or highlighting entrances. In addition to these rather technical applications, the luminaires can also provide highly effective architectural lighting.
