UK - Zumtobel Staff has enhanced its PANOS range of downlights with the introduction of PANOS PSP+, a pure silver plated reflector. The technology used by PANOS PSP+ increases light output ratio by up to 21%, thus reducing overall quantities of downlighters required but also extending the maintenance cycle.

Designed by Sottsass Associati, PANOS is a complete range of professional, modular downlights. PANOS PSP+ is a highly polished reflector for the H (high) and L (low) models, H being a high general downlight, and L being designed for shallow recessed depth. Having ideal glare control, H is suited to all types of applications including office environments. L is ideal for specification in retail applications, corridors, reception areas and restaurants.

Zumtobel Staff's innovative coating technique produces the PSP+ reflector with an extremely durable, robust reflector surface. The silver surface increases light output ratio by 21% while meeting all requirements for glare control. PSP+ allows higher illuminance levels to be achieved using the same number of luminaires or more significantly, less luminance to be used to achieve the same light level. The latter results in significantly lower installation costs.

Sottsass Associati says: "Our cooperation with Zumtobel Staff has been going on now for almost 20 years. The result is luminaires that have incomparable character. PANOS is a logical continuation of our efforts to rescue downlights from their anonymity in the ceiling."
