Adapting to the New Normal: Innovative Lighting for Post-Pandemic Workspaces

TRILUX is thrilled to introduce Rail, a game-changing lighting system specifically crafted for the evolving post-pandemic workplace. This innovative solution combines advanced technology with a sophisticated design, offering a unique blend of functionality and aesthetics. Rail is not just a lighting system, it’s a statement of modernity and adaptability, designed to enhance wellness, neurodiversity, creativity, and productivity in your workspace.

 

Invisible Connection. Visible Impact.

Emotional light is a decisive element in today’s hybrid working environments. Rail offers a highly flexible basis for attractive and adaptive lighting concepts, including smart connectivity, making it an ideal choice for accentuating contemporary office settings.

 

Flexible Elegance for the Office

Rail is not just a lighting system, it’s a design element that seamlessly integrates into any office decor. Its optimised design combines flexible power supply and control lines in a sleek aluminium profile, while its flush invisible adapters and high-quality fine-textured structure add a touch of elegance to any space. With the option to customise in individual colours or bending radii, Rail offers architects and interior designers complete design freedom, allowing them to create unique and inspiring workspaces.

 

Smart and Powerful

As a 230V track, Rail eliminates the need for a separate converter, enabling long distances without voltage loss and ensuring a robust power reserve for high luminous flux applications. The profile features six conductors for three separately switched luminaire groups and DALI control lines for advanced light management, such as LiveLink. Wireless control is also possible with Casambi. These innovative features of Rail inspire new possibilities in office lighting.

 

Versatile Installation

Rail’s versatility allows it to be mounted on ceilings or walls, installed in suspended ceilings, or plastered in. When suspended, it can even provide indirect lighting. These choices help Rail align perfectly with any spatial concept and architectural design.

 

Emotional Accents for Multi-Space Offices

Rail allows for the creation of high-contrast, atmospheric lighting moods with spotlights, flush-mounted linear inserts, and pendant luminaires. Whether for relaxation areas or informal encounters, Rail enhances the office environment, making it more than just a workspace.
