Illuma makes a point at Light + Building
Joanna Weston's soft knife sculptures helped to put the Illuma stand at the cutting edge of design. Joanna, a Fine Arts graduate who works for the Sales and Marketing department, was delighted to be involved in such an incisive manner right from the start. Nicola Moore, the export manager commented ’ we were delighted with the response of visitors from all over the world. They loved the stand, thought our new products were great and were pleased to meet and talk to us face to face.'' She continued, ''our existing customers were impressed with the level of commitment that coming to Frankfurt represents.’
As first time exhibitors Illuma had over 400 visitors of which 80% were not from the UK. The stars of the show were undoubtedly the new Illumaled system products, for both the interior and exterior environments. The enthusiastic response completely validates the focus the company is giving to create meaningful lighting solutions using this fast emerging technology.

Illuma Launches Innovative Illumaled Range with market-beating five-year guarantee.
Illuma Lighting has launched a range of innovative LED lighting fixtures that offer a huge step forward in LED reliability - underlined by a market-beating five-year guarantee. The new IllumaLED collection was developed through a collaborative effort between UK manufacturer Illuma and LED specialists, Lumidrives, part of the Dialight group, recognised as one of the global leaders in LED technology. 'The current LED market is like the 'Wild West', with wide variation in luminaire quality and a lack of standardisation,' says Mike Jankowski, Illuma's Commercial Director. 'We needed to ally ourselves with a partner with a proven track record, which is why we chose to work with Lumidrives-Dialight. Their expertise combines everything that is required for quality and reliability, including electronic design, thermal engineering and optical system development. And the relationship is a genuinely symbiotic one, as Gordon Routledge, Managing Director of Lumidrives and Vice-President of Dialight explains. 'Lumidrives is an expert in the technology but we don't have roots in the specifier and contractor market like Illuma. This partnership gives us an excellent channel to market for our expanding technologies.' This partnership between Illuma and Lumidrives ensures that the Illumaled collection has been developed in a totally holistic manner, with all the various elements engineered together, to produce professional LED light sources with good colour rendering, excellent optical control and long life. So confident is Illuma of the reliability of the new collection that it is offering a no-quibble five-year guarantee on the new products. 'This is an industry first, as far as we know,' Mike Jankowski adds.
