Prisma is an Italian company based in Atlanta. What really makes them stand out is the tempered powder lined glass diffusers that won't change color with exposure to UV rays which is typical of other acrylic covers. The products use a variety of different LED manufacturers including Philips, Cree and Citizen. They have a binning process to mix colors that uses a 3 step distance on the MacAdam ellipse. The standard CRI is 83-84 but they also have the option of higher CRI of 90. Because most of the assembling of the products occurs in the US, they are considered a US company. Prisma products have typical lead time of 1-4 weeks. The standard dimming option for all the products is 0-10v. We were first shown the Magiclick and the Blitz. The Magiclick has a rounded glass with a single COB while the Blitz is a flat glass plate with an array of LEDs. They both have IP ratings of 65-67 and are rated for pool applications.
The second fixture we saw was the Quasar 10. The up light was at a 15 degree output and the light throw reaches about 12'. There are IES and Revit files available. The Quasar Series comes in 3000k,3500k,4000k color temperatures.
We were also shown the ALU 4 with the 4 sided option. This fixture can accommodate different light patterns. They are also available with integral or remote drivers. The degree lenses are field changeable as needed for onsite design changes.
The most impressive product is the Mimik wall mounted up or up/down fixture. It is able to "blend in" to virtually any wall surface with the accessory kit. The accessory kit is basically a sleeve that can accommodate the different types of cladding. Some images of the product show different stones or metal panels in outdoor environments. It does not have integral EM. The Mimik 20 series has a 20' light throw while the mimik 30 has about a 30' light throw. The amount of light output can be modified by changing the driver. There are only (2) color temperature options, 3000k and 4000k. The price point for the fixture alone is under $200 DN with the accessory being an extra $168.
The other products we saw were the Insert +0, the Strip Square LED, and the Spillo bollard. The driver for the Insert series fit inside a junction box. Prisma provides the screws and they also have an accessory glove that provides the option of a seamless finish. The price point is under $100. The Strip Square series comes as surface mounted or recessed. There is an IP rating of up to IP67. They have the option of single node RGB that can be controlled with DMX.
