Professional Lighting Design Convention


Mirror, mirror on the wall, who has the best optic of them all?

 
For the first time, Thorn was a joint sponsor (Platinum level) of the Professional Lighting Design Convention (PLDC) in Madrid (19-22 October).  The company also took a small stand featuring its latest cutting edge LED exterior lanterns - StyLED, Plurio LED and Clan LED - which deliver high light levels, long life and impressive energy savings. Visitors were able to see and ‘feel’ the innovative optics via a clever mirror system positioned underneath each lantern, and interact with Thorn’s exterior lighting experts.

Richard Hall, Director of Global Marketing for Thorn, said the event, attended by over 1,200 visitors, was a great success: Our brand has a strong role to play with lighting designers; they appreciate and want to take advantage of our core competencies and global reach.  Our down-to-earth approach to ‘application requirements first - technology second’ was appreciated.” 

The PLDC events in London, Berlin and now Madrid show a clear and steady growth, reflecting the increasing interest in the topic of lighting design and the need for such high quality events.
