Renaissance Lighting Launches solía , Its Newest ENERGY STAR®-Qualified Luminaire Product Line For General Illumination Applications
HERNDON, Va. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Renaissance
Lighting, a leading innovator in the development of
energy-efficient, architectural-grade, solid-state LED downlight
fixtures, introduced its new solÃa
brand high-efficiency all-white solid-state downlighting at the Greenbuild
International Conference and Expo in Phoenix, AZ, the largest annual
gathering of representatives from all sectors of the green building
movement. The launch of the solÃa brand and its ENERGY
STAR-qualified solid-state LED downlight fixtures
represents a major technological milestone both for the Virginia-based
lighting fixture company and solid-state lighting's increasingly
important role in advancing the green movement.
"Our newest generation of energy-efficient solid-state downlights is the
result of continued commercial breakthroughs in the application of LED
technology based on Constructive
Occlusion, our patented technology for the unique mixing
and blending of multiple LEDs into one powerful light source, said Renaissance
Lighting CEO, Barry Weinbaum. "Our products deliver the traditional
lighting experience with all the advantages of using LEDs. The solÃa
line of products broadens our breadth of LED luminaire applications,
already the most diverse in the industry," Weinbaum said during a news
conference at the Greenbuild conclave to introduce his company's solÃa
brand.
"What separates our solÃa brand luminaires from the
competition are the superior optical efficiencies that we continue to
achieve," Weinbaum continued. "We clearly have maintained our
competitive technology edge thanks to Constructive Occlusion. This has
allowed us to score a major hit in terms of simultaneously increasing
lumen output while minimizing energy consumption. At the same time, we
are able to address an increasing number of lighting applications,"
Weinbaum added.
The advanced optical efficiencies of solÃa brand
luminaires are defined by higher lumen output, improved efficacies,
greater light intensity, and advanced foot candle distribution - all of
which work together to reduce the number of luminaires needed to light a
particular space while also enhancing return on investment and reducing
the overall cost of ownership.
The incredibly bright solia products are available in a
complete range of white color temperatures from 2700K to 4100K with a
luminous flux that reaches 770 lumens on select models. The company also
offers some of the most efficient LED downlights on the market today
with luminaire efficacies of approximately 50 lumens per watt. And like
all of Renaissance Lighting's LED fixtures, solÃa brand
luminaires do not emit harmful ultraviolet rays or contain mercury.
Other important commercial and residential features unique to solÃa
brand lighting include Insulated Ceiling, Air tight and covered
ceiling/wet location options. Renaissance Lighting engineers have
designed a thermal management system into all solÃa brand
products that can safely maintain contact with above-ceiling insulation
and other building materials.
The new solÃa brand joins Renaissance Lighting's two other
existing product lines - revia , Renaissance
Lighting's line of architectural-grade, all-white LED luminaires, which
features 18 all-white solid-state ENERGY STAR-qualified
downlight fixtures, and vivÃa , the
company's premium color-changing (Red, Green, Blue) solid-state LED
downlight, capable of producing more than 16 million vibrant colors.
All Renaissance Lighting products have impressive smooth,
flicker-free dimming and are compatible with third-party controls to
enhance customers' lighting experiences.
Renaissance Lighting's commitment to green technology has received broad
recognition for its pioneering effort to establish the solid-state
lighting industry's first fixture
recycling program and offers the largest selection of ENERGY STAR
qualified white LED luminaires in the industry. The company also has
received a number of third-party accolades including being named to the 2009
GoingGreen East 50 Top Private Company List, winning the national GoingGreen
Top 100 competition, and being named by AlwaysOn as one of the OnDC
Top 100 Winners.
