“ By replacing old luminaires with new LED luminaires,
you can reduce energy use by at least 50 %. With
our purpose-developed conversion kits, we facilitate
a conversion that takes just a few minutes.”

Reducing energy costs,
increasing efficiency
LED conversion
Outdated lighting systems have higher energy con-
sumption and also usually lose their lighting quality.
Due to the ban on fluorescent lamps in the EU from
25 August 2023, the demand for conversion to LED
is increasing. The refurbishment of the Neunkirchen
hospital was intended to minimise the expense and
disruption to the lighting solution and leave the exter-
nal appearance of the lighting system unchanged.
For this hospital project, 260 luminaires were tech-
nologically upgraded with customised conversion
kits. Only the inner components were replaced; the
luminaire housing and thus the design of the round
luminaires remained unchanged. The result speaks for
itself. Electricity costs can be reduced by around 64
percent per month. The investment amortised after
just 32 months. The service included the development
of a customised conversion kit for a 1:1 replacement
without major effort. Today, the hospital benefits from
significant, long-term energy savings and improved
lighting quality which, in turn, benefits the people:
maximum well-being for patients, visitors, and staff.
