EXTANT LIGHTING

Today, we looked at EXTANT LIGHTING for the first time.

They presented the EXTANT EDGE, a linear fixture with a 1.875" square-shaped profile, Nichia LED chip, direct and direct/indirect, controlled independently.

They are using a unique optical lens (Microstructure Edgetech Optics) to achieve an even illumination with minimal glare.

What's unique about this fixture is the utilized 400ft long roll of frosted lens film mounted below an acrylic etched diffuser, which allows a seamless look when run continues without any visible joint lines (comes with the fixture as standard but also purchasable at $1/ft).

HUNTINGTON:

Low profile recessed linear fixture with 1.5" and 3" wide lens, offered with integral driver (2.25" in direct mud-in & flanged mounting) and low plenum profile model (1.75" tall) with remote driver, available with Lambertian, batwing, & wall washer beam spreads.

Available mounting options are mud-in, trim flange, Armstrong, and various T-grid ceiling systems.

low profile single side illumination

Different shapes like intersection, square, rectangular all possible.

XAL + ARMSTRONG Ceiling

Today We looked at two new recessed linear fixtures, compatible with ARMSTRONG ceiling.

PANO

Low profile recessed fixture available in 2”, 3.25”, and 5.25” wide; compatible with standard length Armstrong’s Woodworks Grille, Woodworks Grille Tegular 9/16”, Woodworks Linear Veneered Panels, and Woodworks Linear Solid Wood Panels.

This fixture only comes in 2’, 4’, and 8’, the same length as the Armstrong panels. For a continuous run, there will be a 1inch reveal between fixtures.

Wider aperture is preferred for use with the wooden gride. No extra hanging wires are needed since there are heavy-duty grids in the Armstrong ceiling structure. Simply fastening brackets needed to grip and snap on to the structure.

This fixture has a remote driver which could also be mounted directly on the back of the fixture (like the integrated driver).

Available lengths for integration into Grille Tegular ceiling are 2’ and 4”, matching the grid length.

LENO

A 3 ⅜" wide recessed fixture, installed from below with easy snap-in installation; great for applications with minimal clearance above the ceiling.

This fixture features plug and play wiring system (not available in PANO).

It’s compatible with Armstrong 9/16" Suprafine, Silhouette, Interlude, 4" TechZone.

The start and end fixtures in the continuous run are slightly shorter to accommodate the ceiling grids.

Armstrong collaborated with AXIOM (3rd party) company for cove and perimeter lighting with prefabricated drywall kit

For lengths greater than standard runs, XAL offers black cover for ends. Although for plaster-in, end to end run, the BASO fixture is a better option. It comes in 1.5”, 2.5”, 4” widths. It’s slightly taller without a plug& play option
