Product Monday: Sound-Absorbing Luminaires by A-Light

Craig DiLouie April 1, 2019

A-Light’s ABSORB luminaire family was designed to reduce sound in open spaces and areas with high ceilings while providing functional illumination.

Aircraft-cable-mounted, ABSORB is available in two distinct shapes. The ABSORB H has horizontal sound-absorbing panels, and the ABSORB V has vertical panels. The felt-like polyester panels are made from at least 40% post-consumer recycled PET bottles and are fully recyclable. With a large surface area, the ABSORB panels decrease reverberation time and have an inherent sound absorption rate of 0.75 NRC.

The linear luminaire is available in Direct/Indirect Symmetric, Direct/Indirect Symmetric Wide, and Direct Symmetric. Light output ranges from 335 to 460 lumens/ft. for the standard output version and 670 to 921 lumens/ft. for the high-output version, depending upon distribution type. ABSORB uses HE Tech™ optical technology, which combines optical diffusion and a high-performance reflector.
