Zumtobel Spectrum - lighting like natural, adapted to human biological rhythms

20 of January '21


These days, we spend a lot of time in enclosed spaces. Despite the efforts of architects, many rooms have limited access to natural light. Weakness, visual fatigue, headaches, deterioration of mood, disruption of the natural diurnal rhythm causing sleep disorders are the daily reality of people deprived of daylight. Recent studies show that light has a greater impact on the onset of these problems than previously thought. As we know today, standard lighting that meets standards cannot fully ensure our well-being. As a result of cooperation with architects, doctors and users, Zumtobel, together with Nichia, one of the largest LED manufacturers, has found a solution to the problem.

When the invisible matters

Zumtobel Spectrum lighting is designed to be as close as possible to natural daylight from a human perspective, and is intended to follow the natural variation of daylight in the range where the eye is most sensitive to visual, emotional and biological stimuli. Relative to daylight, short wavelength emissions have been reduced (and are therefore less harmful to the eye), while longer wavelengths have increased slightly (to achieve a warmer appearance and better color reproduction).

With their unique technology, Zumtobel and Nichia have created the ideal light source for our eyes. It contributes to reducing stress on the eyes, making them relaxed, which results in less fatigue and improved visual acuity. Zumtobel Spectrum supports our biological rhythm and improves the atmosphere of the space around us.

The Zumtobel Spectrum system
will work best in those places,
where we spend the most time
,
and our eyesight is most strained:

Offices - less strain on the eyes

Zumtobel Spectrum will make our eyes work with less fatigue and will not suffer any harmful consequences from being in spaces with artificial lighting. It will make us more focused on work, and recover our energies faster when we leave.

Educational facilities - better concentration

Zumtobel Spectrum improves concentration and performance and reduces student fatigue. As a result, it improves academic performance. This is especially important for the development of our children, who are spending more and more time in front of phone and computer screens, which have a bad effect on their eyesight and well-being.

Healthcare facilities - improving health

Zumtobel Spectrum meets the needs of the patient and staff, transforming the hospital atmosphere into a friendlier one. It stimulates the body's natural diurnal rhythm, enhancing well-being and improving sleep quality. Based on patient observations, medical staff make hundreds of decisions every day to improve their health. Zumtobel's innovative lighting, thanks to its natural light color, reduced staff stress and overall improved visual performance, influences less stress and faster patient diagnosis.

The use of Zumtobel Spectrum is not limited to offices, schools and medical facilities. The system will positively affect our well-being and health wherever we spend a lot of time working in artificial lighting, including in our home offices and schools.

Features of Zumtobel Spectrum illumination

1. relaxation

Our working environment is supported by a harmonized light spectrum that reduces the load on the retina, so we have:

  • Less tired eyes
  • Greater concentration during activities
  • Faster recovery in the evening

2. excellent sharpness

Zumtobel Spectrum lighting maintains a constant pupil size which ensures:

  • Better visual acuity
  • Improved perception of brightness
  • Reduced glare effect
  • Better visibility of contrasts and space

3 Synchronization

Zumtobel Spectrum follows the natural diurnal rhythm of daylight, so that:

  • Our activity will be matched to the time of day
  • Peaceful sleep will give us better rest

You can learn more about the impact and application of Zumtobel Spectrum at the seminar "Lighting and its impact on our health" organized by Zumtobel scheduled for mid-February. Exact information about the date of the seminar will be emailed to you after you sign up for our newsletter https://www.zumtobel.com/pl-pl/newsletter.html
