Entry DescriptionThe Y is a surface projector specifically developed for outdoor environments.
It combines construction excellence with outstanding optical performance powered by Cross Light - a technology that moves away the lens’s focal point, allowing the light beams to intersect internally. Consequently, the light source remains recessed without compromising efficiency or optical definition while also delivering a very low UGR.
With four sizes, it supports applications from low to high power (7W to 40W), beam angles of 15°, 24°, 36°, and 50° and color temperatures of 2700K, 3000K, and 4000K. A complementary honeycomb accessory enhances visual comfort by effectively reducing glare.
The Y is made entirely from aluminum and features an adjustable tilt mechanism that allows up to 90° of orientation, making it highly adaptable to a wide range of lighting design applications.
Its optical and mechanical robustness offers a versatile solution for projects that demand high performance and precision.
Sustainability ApproachSustainability approach: the structure is made of aluminum, a circular material that is infinitely and 100% recyclable. The LED lighting used is efficient, long-lasting, and low-maintenance. Due to its extended lifespan, the replacement and disposal rates are lower, reducing the need to produce additional luminaires.
