The Architectural Products Product Innovation Awards
(PIA) determine and honor innovation in the development and
refinement of buildings-related products in 14 major product
categories. The second annual competition was judged by a group of
50 independent experts in their field.
"We are once again honored that our LED products are being
recognized for innovation by top industry professionals," said
Cooper Lighting President Mark
Eubanks. "These awards validate our commitment to providing
industry-leading solutions, which specifiers and customers can rely
on."
Developed for demanding commercial and residential applications,
the IRiS P3LED 3-inch aperture LED recessed series combines the
flexibility of interchangeable optics with energy savings, long
life, and the sustainability of LED. The P3LED luminaire's unique
design allows the light distribution to be modified during
construction, or even years later, by changing out the optical
elements (trims), which are available in downlight, accent, wall
wash, and lens solutions. The series is currently available in
3000K correlated color temperature (CCT), 85 color rendering index
(CRI) typical, and is designed to last with a five year, 50,000-
hour warranty.
Designed to replace fluorescent 2' x 2' alternatives for general
lighting applications, the io Lili Gen II family consists of two
new patent pending light engines. These light engines combine
state-of-the-art styling, superior thermal management, and the
optical control required to indirectly illuminate a beautifully
contoured reflector. Multiple design awards have validated that the
Lili Gen II Series is a style statement that delivers code required
illumination levels without the excessive brightness seen with
other LED troffers. Lili is perfect for healthcare environments
where discomfort glare is unwanted by patients but a 50,000-hour
sustainable lighting solution is needed. Lili is also perfect for
offices and conference rooms where energy-efficient lighting
solutions are desired but reflections on computer screens and
handheld electronic devices are not.
The sleek family of Lumiere LED Eon Bollards includes the single
head Eon 303-B1 and the 303-B2 with two opposing heads. These LED
bollards' outstanding optical performance originates from the
patented AccuLED Optics™ and results in spacings up to 24 feet
apart in some configurations. The patented Lumiere LumaLevel™
leveling system provides quick installation, easy adjustment,
secure mounting, and protection from vibration.
