Architects grant design award to LUCTRA® FLEX

"This product has the potential to become a classic", is how the jury explained its decision to grant the AIT Innovation Award to LUCTRA® FLEX at Orgatec 2016, in Cologne.

Now in its ninth year, the award scheme recognises designers and manufacturers of innovative products in office furniture, office lamos and commercial property flooring. The winning criteria consists of functional and creative quality, technical innovation and versatility for multi-purpose use. The jury consists exclusively of represenatives from renowned bureaux of architecture.

On awarding LUCTRA® the accolade, the judging panel commented that, "It fits perfectly into today’s working world, where the main emphasis is on mobile and activity-based work. We view the personalisation of light in terms of mobility and quality as this product’s innovative feature".

LUCTRA®FLEX is the cordless, portable, biologically effective lighting solution for mobile working in the home or office. The integrated lithium-ion battery supplies the lamp with power for up to nine hours. LUCTRA® FLEX gives the user complete freedom when choosing where to work, without compromising on the quality of the light. Cool and warm white LEDs with light intensity up to 1,000 lux, offers an extremely wide colour spectrum between 2,700K and 6,500K that delivers biologically effective lighting, closely replicating daylight quality.

Part of the LUCTRA® range, FLEX is equipped with the same intuitive VITACORE® electronic technology as the well-established LUCTRA® table and floor lamps. This technology allows the user to adjust the colour and brightness for their personal comfort, enhancing user concentration and productivity levels whilst reducing fatigue.

"This prize is a very special distinction for us, since it is awarded by architects," comments Horst-Werner Maier-Hunke, Managing Director of DURABLE. "They are a vital target group for us and this award now confirms the success of our approach and product development."

Measuring in at a height of 136 cm, the cordless lamp weighs a manageable 2 kg, enabling the lamp to be relocated and transported with ease. The product is available in orange, aluminium, black and white.
