WAC Lighting's Sol Organic LED Chandelier Wins Product Innovation Award from Architectural Products Magazine
Garden City, New York-WAC Lighting President Shelley Wald has announced that the Sôl(TM) Organic LED Chandelier has won a Product Innovation Award from Architectural Products magazine. The Product Innovation Awards recognize outstanding products and product applications in the architectural world.
Ms. Wald said the recognition is not only exciting for the company, but also a sign that the company's team is doing something right. "We are proud that Sôl has won AP's Product Innovation Award, the chandelier's fifth award this year," she said. "These awards recognize that the market is as excited about our products as we are. The excitement generated from these awards encourages us to expand our market research into new lighting technologies."
The OLED Chandelier has its commercial debut in 20 lighting galleries across North America this fall. Sculpturally representative of ancient symbols for the sun, each eco-friendly chandelier is hand-signed and numbered.
Sculpturally representative of ancient symbols for the sun, energy source for life on earth, Sôl(TM) features upgraded ORBEOS OLEDs from OSRAM Opto Semiconductors panels, which now deliver a total light output of 420 lumens. Sôl's seven remarkably thin (2.1 millimeters) Organic LED panels employ the world's most revolutionary nanotechnology, creating tremendous attention from the industry. Each Organic LED panel distributes white light with optimal color rendering (CRI 80) and a color temperature of 3900K.
Adjustable light distribution is delivered for ambient mood lighting, free of undesirable shadows or glare. Each reversible OLED panel is completely cool to the touch, inviting consumers to experience Organic LEDs. Circular satellite OLED panels rotate up for indirect lighting, and tilt down to comfortably illuminate the surface below or faces around a table. The central downlight provides direct downward lighting. Soft, glare free light from the OLED panels is incorporated into the design and does not require the use of any additional lenses or reflectors to diffuse the light which traditionally result in a 10 to 40 percent loss in efficiency.
Sôl(TM) is inherently sustainable, designed around energy efficiency and environmentally friendly technology and individually crafted within WAC Lighting's wholly owned, Clean ISO 9001/14001-certified manufacturing campus with in-house U.L. certified test labs. The chandelier is crafted of aluminum and finished in black nickel, without the use of heavy metals or other rare-earth materials commonly used in other energy-efficient sources, which have a major environmental impact in the mining process.
With a diameter of 18.5 inches and a height of 2.2 inches tall, the chandelier's overall height ranges from 12.25 to 40 inches tall, with a supporting metal rod.
