Gemma Lighting Unveils Enhanced LED Bollard Range with New IP Chamber for Improved Ingress Protection and Simplified Installation
Gemma lighting has launched an exciting update to its highly-regarded LED bollard range, introducing a newly designed IP chamber that enhances the product’s IP rating and streamlines the installation process. This upgrade, which increases the IP rating of the bollards from IP55 to IP65, is expected to also reform how these essential outdoor lighting solutions are installed and maintained, offering both improved protection against the elements and greater ease of use for installers.
The new IP chamber, a significant feature of the updated LED bollard range, is designed to address the growing demand for more robust, weather-resistant outdoor lighting fixtures that can withstand harsher environmental conditions. By increasing the IP (Ingress Protection) rating from IP55 to IP65, the updated bollards provide a higher level of protection against dust and water ingress. The IP65 rating guarantees that the bollards are fully protected against dust and can withstand low-pressure water jets from any direction, making them ideal for installation in areas subject to heavy rain, coastal environments, or locations where frequent cleaning is required.
What Does the Upgrade Mean for Users?
The improved IP rating is not the only benefit of the new update. The incorporation of the IP chamber into the design also significantly reduces the time and complexity involved in installing the bollards. Traditionally, LED bollards could be challenging to install due to the necessity of ensuring a tight seal and protecting sensitive electrical components from moisture and dirt. However, with the addition of the IP chamber, the process has become far more straightforward.
“Installation is a key concern for contractors, as they often face tight schedules and the need for quick, reliable installations,” said Craig Manuel, CEO at Gemma Lighting. “By integrating the IP chamber into our LED bollard range, we have been able to simplify the installation process while simultaneously increasing the product’s longevity and performance. This update ensures that contractors can install the bollards with greater ease, which ultimately saves time and reduces labour costs.”
The IP chamber serves as a protective barrier that keeps the critical components of the bollard safe from dust and moisture, making it easier to assemble the bollard without having to worry about external environmental factors during installation. This upgrade also ensures that the bollards will maintain optimal performance over time, even in challenging outdoor conditions, by preventing water or debris from reaching the internal electrical components.
A Commitment to Quality and Sustainability
Gemma Lighting has long been a leader in producing high-quality, energy-efficient lighting solutions. The new IP chamber and the enhanced IP65-rated bollards are a testament to the company’s ongoing commitment to delivering superior products that meet the needs of modern commercial and residential spaces. These bollards are designed to be durable, low-maintenance, and energy-efficient, in keeping with the Gemma Lighting’s sustainability goals.
“We understand that businesses and municipalities are looking for lighting solutions that not only provide aesthetic appeal but also offer reliability and energy efficiency,” said Craig Manuel. “This update to our LED bollard range aligns with these needs by increasing the lifespan and efficiency of the bollards while reducing the maintenance required to keep them functioning. The energy-saving LED technology combined with the enhanced protection ensures that our customers are getting the most value out of their investment.”
With the IP chamber upgrade, Gemma Lighting aims to offer a solution that enhances the bollard’s operational performance in a wide range of settings, from public parks and urban streetscapes to commercial properties and residential developments. The bollards can be relied upon to provide consistent lighting, even in regions with challenging weather conditions.
An Ideal Solution for a Variety of Applications
LED bollards are increasingly being used for a variety of applications, from landscape and architectural lighting to security and wayfinding in outdoor spaces. The new IP65-rated bollards are designed to meet the demands of these diverse applications, providing reliable lighting solutions that enhance safety and aesthetics while offering long-term performance.
For municipalities, this new upgrade is a welcome addition to street lighting systems, as the bollards’ increased weather resistance and simplified installation process will contribute to reduced maintenance costs and faster deployment in high-traffic public areas. Commercial property owners and landscape designers will also appreciate the improved durability, which makes the bollards an ideal choice for outdoor spaces that require reliable illumination in all types of weather.
With their sleek, modern design and robust construction, the updated LED bollards are poised to become a staple in both urban and suburban environments. Their aesthetic appeal, combined with functional advantages such as the enhanced IP rating and easier installation, makes them a go-to solution for projects where both form and function are a priority.
Looking Ahead
The company is committed to continuing its innovation in outdoor lighting products. With the introduction of the updated LED bollard range, the company has set a new standard for durability, ease of installation, and energy efficiency in the market. The IP chamber and increased IP rating are just the beginning of a broader effort to provide customers with lighting solutions that exceed industry standards and meet the evolving needs of modern landscapes.
“We are excited to offer this update to our customers, and we look forward to seeing how these enhanced bollards help improve outdoor lighting projects across the globe,” said Mark Major, Director of UK Sales at Gemma Lighting. “As we continue to innovate, we remain focused on delivering lighting solutions that are as dependable as they are efficient, ensuring that our customers always have access to the very best.”
