Fluxwerx Profile Luminaire Wins Red Dot Award: Product Design 2016

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA and MONTREAL, QUEBEC — (Marketwired) — 04/04/16 — Editors Note: There is a photo associated with this press release.

Fluxwerx, a Lumenpulse brand of high-performance, LED luminaires for commercial and institutional spaces, has been awarded the prestigious Red Dot Product Design Award 2016 for its Profile LED luminaire. Profile, a suspended LED luminaire that delivers bright, flexible general lighting through a hollow luminous aperture, was awarded the prize by a 41-member jury, beating out 5,214 products from 57 nations. Profile can now be distinguished with the Red Dot seal of quality, a highly sought-after international designation that recognizes excellence in product design.

“We–re very honored and proud to have been awarded the Red Dot Award for Product Design 2016,” said Tim Berman, President of Fluxwerx. “Profile provides the very best in LED performance, output, and sustainability, all while offering a minimalist architectural aesthetic. We believe this gives us an advantage in general lighting applications for commercial and institutional spaces, and this prestigious award is further validation of the product–s massive potential,” he said.

Profile is a linear LED pendant luminaire with unique hollow aperture design, delivering unparalleled longitudinal clarity and transparency right through the fixture. The luminaire uses vertically oriented optics, without horizontal lenses or diffusers, resulting in a complete absence of glare. Profile offers a choice of direct and direct/indirect versions, as well as vertical surface illumination (VSI) and symmetric and asymmetric distributions. Manufactured in 4– and 8– nominal sections that can be installed as individual lights or connected to create continuous runs without any limitations, Profile can be specified in any custom RAL powdercoat finish. Its agnostic drivers can be integrated with any sensor, lighting control, or building energy management system.

“Profile is an example of the innovative product design and quality that first attracted us to Fluxwerx,” said Francois-Xavier Souvay, President and CEO of Lumenpulse. “It–s an incredibly exciting product that combines strong industrial design with cutting-edge technology. We are proud and very happy for the Fluxwerx team, who fully deserve this recognition,” he said. The Red Dot Award was created in 1955 by Design Zentrum Nordrhein Westfalen. Over the years, it has become one of the most respected design competitions in the world, with the “Red Dot” a revered international seal of outstanding design quality. The independent expert panel assesses each entry strictly and fairly, live and on site, according to a specific set of criteria including degree of innovation, formal quality, functionality and ecological compatibility. The competition is comprised of three award categories: Product Design; Communication Design; and Design Concept.

“With their performances, the Red Dot winners not only demonstrated an extraordinary design quality, but they also showed that design is an integral part of innovative product solutions,” said Professor Dr. Peter Zec, founder and president of the Red Dot Award.

Since then, the sought-after “Red Dot” has been the revered international seal of outstanding design quality. Further information: .
