The Citii range of lighting products has been conceived in the discretion and purity of contemporary lines, with a concern for its perfect integration into both historical and contemporary settings. The Citii modular product line is composed of two luminaires and a bollard, all of which allow for the creation of integrated and harmonious lighting ensembles.
The product is structurally modular in terms of the configuration of the luminaire cage, the diameter and height of the pole and its base. The product is also modular in terms of lighting color rendering, lighting intensity and light distribution. The light module is equipped with an anti-glare lens that hides the LEDs and evens out the light to optimize visual comfort.
The luminaire is equipped with an on-board remote connection system (IOT) that allows the lighting intensity to be modulated according to the location where the luminaire is installed, the time of day and the season. This lighting control system, coupled with LED technology, allows for energy savings of more than 70%, thus reducing its ecological footprint considerably. This remote control lighting system also greatly extends the lifespan of the product by using just the right amount of light at the desired times.
The product is made of 90% recycled/recyclable aluminum parts. Four different aluminum alloys are used in the composition of the product and its shaping requires five shaping processes: extrusion, sand casting, permanent molding, high pressure injection molding and cold rolling. Its surface finish is made up of baked polyester powder paint specially developed to cover aluminum and applied electrostatically, which gives it greater structural and aesthetic durability. The modularity of the parts that compose it allows the product to be personalized in terms of its surface finishes, both in terms of colors and textures.
The design of the luminaire is totally human-centered, whether it be its appearance, lighting performance, installation system, maintenance or life cycle. The Citii product line is the synthesis of Lumca's work and vision of what the future of outdoor lighting should be. This new product line reflects the way public spaces should be lit in order to bring a sense of comfort and safety to the citizens who live, work, study and visit these public places every day, making urban neighborhoods a pleasant place to live.
