Waldmann North America announces the release of MICRO and PIKO luminaires available for both suspended and ceiling applications. The MICRO’s MD optic delivers highly-efficient illumination by micro downlight reflectors with complex surface geometry and precise shaping of the light beam. Similarly, the PIKO optic made of PMMS and retracted from the surface of the luminaire, emits light through the perforation on the surface making the light source invisible and providing optimal visual comfort. Both STARLINE™ optics balance the intensity of the downlight while maintaining an impressive command on glare control (UGR<13), making these fixtures ideal for an office setting, conference room or lobby.

Available for the North American market, the ASTERISK recessed ceiling light delivers glare-control and highly-efficient illumination with its STARLINE optics’ precise shaping of the light beam. Optics feature a micro downlight reflector with a complex surface geometry of micro facets. The angles of direct light beam and light reflected perfectly align, providing sharp cut off for full visual comfort.

People and their needs have been at the forefront of development at Waldmann since the company’s inception. LUM CONNECT, the new Waldmann smart lighting control platform, to be unveiled at LIGHTFAIR® International Booth #848, continues this philosophy. Adhering to the Plug & Light principle of simplicity and ease in operation while providing a diverse range of technological functions, LUM CONNECT enables Waldmann luminaires to be controlled intelligently, with the help of standard interfaces. The luminaires become part of networked environments, enhancing user convenience and boosting energy efficiency.

Joining the successful IDOO.pendant and IDOO.line series of Waldmann direct/indirect office-oriented lighting, Waldmann will be introducing the IDOO.ray wall luminaire and DOTOO.line suspended luminaire at Lightfair Booth #848.
