What Daisalux makes

Daisalux specialises in emergency lighting. Its collection is organised in four families, each with versions for different ceilings, walls, mounting types and control systems.

• Emergency luminaires: recessed, surface, suspended, flush and track-mounted fittings for open areas and escape routes, from IP20 to IP67.
• Exit signage: illuminated exit signs in sizes from 160 × 80 mm upwards, including slim methacrylate and aluminium designs.
• Beacon lighting: round and square beacon lights, with protection ratings up to IP66.
• Central battery and control systems: central battery units, remote controls and the DaisaTest monitoring system.

Designed to blend into the architecture

• IZAR: a compact recessed luminaire with in-house optics, an optional opaline diffuser that hides the optic in white ceilings, and LS and KML versions for slatted ceilings.
• SPICA: a small luminaire with a flat lens of just 12 mm, for hotels, museums, shops, offices and restaurants.
• LINEAR: an emergency luminaire made for three-phase electrified track, with a concealed adapter and an aluminium body that reads as part of the track.
• NAOS: a family of ceiling and wall luminaires with a soft-textured front, including an exit-sign version, so one design language can run through a whole building.

Daisalux gives IZAR, SPICA and LINEAR an estimated life of 70,000 hours (L90/B10).

Planning support for designers

Daisalux's lighting planning team calculates the emergency lighting needed for a space from the project drawings, at no cost, following the regulations of each country. Its own DAISA software lets designers run their own calculations. BIM objects are published for ten families, and each product has a technical data sheet found by its 10-character code.
