In retail, colour rendering is the decisive feature, along with accentuation and intensity. Find out more about this topic.

An ongoing issue in retail lighting is LED spotlights’ fading potential. Find out more here.

Flicker, stroboscopic effect, and temporal light modulation – to avoid irritation of the human eye, there are various measurement methods for evaluating these effects. Find out more here.

To us, good light is emotionally stimulating, biologically supportive, performance-enhancing, or relaxing. In practice, we mainly encounter diffuse light from surface luminaires or LED bulbs. This is due to a lack of knowledge about what good lighting can achieve, and is also the result of a non-existent light culture. Read more about how lighting design must be done to enhance human well-being in all areas.

Regardless of whether at home, in the office or in a hospital, people rely on a transition of daylight, with the correct colour temperature, for an active and fulfilling life.

The IES TM 30-15 colour rendering rating allows 99 test colours to be selected instead of just 8. This matrix also enables evaluation of colour saturation.

Innovative technology enables the simulation of all the colour temperatures of natural daylight. This enables a closer match to the internal human clock.

Placing objects under constant lighting can often lead to fading of the colours. But several simple measures, such as increased lighting distance and the correct light colour, can put an end to this problem.
