LED Lighting for Outdoor and Indoor Areas.

LED lighting systems can produce considerable savings in electricity consumption. To make optimum use of the light, lenses are incorporated to guide it in a particular direction. Polycarbonates are also used in the lamp housings to give the complete system a long service life in all types of conditions.

Cable ducts

The latest generation of cable ducts is based on materials treated with chlorine-free, bromine-free flame retardants. As a result, the finished components satisfy a wide range of demands. A variety of different geometries can be produced to cover a very broad spectrum of applications.
