February 13, 2008—Lamina Lighting Incorporated (Lamina), an innovator of LED lighting systems and technologies, has announced that its SoL MR16 LED was included in the specifications for jewelry cabinetry lighting for Cartier, the renowned French jeweler and watchmaker based in Paris.
Lamina’s SoL MR16 LED is currently being installed in new cabinetry under construction for Cartier’s latest retail shop in Brussels, Belgium, and will be utilized in all new cabinetry for subsequent stores, says Lamina.
JC Lampes, the French distributor for Lamina LEDs and a subsidiary of Eleanor Group, worked in conjunction with Cartier’s lighting designer/adviser and Lamina to have the SoL specified for use in the cabinetry.
The Lamina SoL MR16 LED integrates a high power LED light source, optical lens and thermal heat sink shell in a traditional MR16 halogen form-factor. Its design, which fits most existing fixtures and is designed to provide the quality of light produced by traditional incandescent lamps, produces as much light as a comparable 20-watt halogen bulb, but consumes less than 8 watts of electricity.
Lamina defines the current state of LED lighting technology with continuous innovations in light output, efficacy and thermal management. For more on the company, see its Web site.
