Available in either wall mounted designs or stand-alone bollard frames, the COOL range provides an effective, powerful light output which is directed outwards, creating striking lighting effects illuminating the adjacent wall or surface.
The design ethos of the COOL range ensured that continuous efforts were made at reducing the volume, minimizing the size and simplifying the luminaire. In doing so, the range emphasizes surrounding architecture, whilst providing the sense of space in the immediate vicinity.
Both the wall mounted and bollard luminaires are available in three sizes, to maximize application opportunity. Producing a warm white output at 3000K, with a high colour rendering index of 90, the COOL SQUARE luminaires ranges in wattage from 7.5W to 28.4W. MICROCOOL , MINICOOL and COOL and COOL SQUARE are offered in both variations, allowing the designer to choose which models would be best suited to the application area.
Wall mounted COOL range products are particularly adept at highlighting wall surfaces and textures, as well as providing a practicality aspect with Illuminating doorways and fire assembly points. Similarly the bollard version is perfect for illumination pathways, gardens and landscapes whilst providing visual safety, as well as having the capability to flank a doorway to a building.
All models are made with die-cast EN AB-47100 aluminum housing with high corrosion resistance, which allows the range to withstand the elements. The bollard luminaire is equipped with extruded EN AW-6060 aluminum structure with the same high corrosion resistance. Screws are made from stainless steel, alongside silicone gaskets.
The MICROCOOL, MINICOOL and COOL luminaires in both forms provide a perfect balance between functionality and design, without compromising on either aspect. The minimalist design ensures the appearance lends itself towards architectural installations.
