Signalling another quality of light breakthrough in its portfolio, Philips Lumileds has announced its proprietary CrispWhite Technology. Making whites appear vivid and bright while colours appear saturated, LUXEON CoB arrays with CrispWhite Technology are suitable for retail downlights and spotlights, offering more inviting and attractive displays.

Correct lighting is essential in the perception and evaluation of goods. It is vital in regards to branding, highlighting and presenting merchandise, and creating a space where shoppers want to visit. The CrispWhite Technology enables all colours, including the white, to show the best saturation, just like daylight. Unlike competing CDM solutions, the CoB with CrispWhite Technology turns on instantly. This is a significant advantage for retail lighting applications.

The LUXEON CoB with CrispWhite Technology is available in multiple lumen packages, from 800 to 7000 lumens for applications from MR16 and PAR lamps up to replacing 70W and 100W CDM solutions.

Eric Senders, Product Line Director, Philips Lumileds, commented: “CrispWhite really delivers the light quality that retailers have been seeking for some time. Shop owners have told us that CDM sources do a fine job of rendering warm colours but they would like to save energy and take advantage of the longer lifetime of LEDs. Just like CDMs, the CrispWhite LEDs maintain high CRI and bring out the white colour in merchandise by utilising a second peak in the blue spectrum. This approach creates the optimal illumination for retail displays."
