Every bit as diverse as the lighting situation are the luminaire model variants:
Many of Hess`s luminaires are suitable for both exterior and interior application, enabling consistent aesthetic design with same materials and styling indoors and outdoors. Hess offers designers more variety and more creative freedom!
Product families
Thinking in terms of families is just one side of Hess´s design flexibility. Hess luminaires are available in many sizes and the poles come in various heights and strengths, guaranteeing the luminaires will play both an integral and proportionate design role in their specific indoor or outdoor environment.
Energy-efficient street lighting
Efficient street lighting represents the greatest challenge of our times in the global fight against climatic change. The CO2 emissions produced by public lighting are immense. Cities and municipalities are in a unique position to lead the way as examples. To attain the greatest amount of energy savings, outdated lighting systems have to be replaced. Surprisingly perhaps, the investment in new lighting makes a good deal of financial sence.
Retrofitting for more energy efficiency
Hess offers its highly efficient mini reflector system for the retrofitting of its immensely popular TOLEDO, OSLO and MADRID series as well as the period luminaires in its Heritage line. With the mini reflector, operators can improve their energy saving performance and classification without altering the appearance of the lighting products and existing architectural character. Use of light diodes in outdoor lighting is currently the main focus in lighting. Hess is at the forefront in this field. In 2003, the company introduced the world´s first functional LED streetlight on the market.
