Showroom Lighting for Cars, Furniture and Products
A showroom sells a small number of high-value products, so each one gets its own light: Ra 90 accent spots aimed at every car, sofa or display over an even base layer. Use wide 36°–60° beams to wash a whole car and 15°–24° for badges, wheels and detail. A zoom spot covers both from one fitting.
Showroom lighting puts its own light on every product: Ra 90 accent spots aimed at each car, sofa or display, over an even base layer, with fittings that re-aim whenever the layout changes. KELVANO supplies the track spots, zoom spots and grid downlights that showrooms depend on, with IES and LDT photometric files that can be measured for project specifications. We can prepare a lighting layout for qualified projects.
What a showroom needs from its lighting
| Need | Why it matters | What we supply |
|---|---|---|
| True colour | Paint, fabric, wood and stone must look as they will at home or in daylight | Ra 90 or higher on our track and grid series |
| Accent on each product | High-value items need their own light to stand out | LED track lighting, zoomable track spotlight |
| Even base layer | Customers walk around products and need light from every side | Anti-glare COB downlight, flat panel track light |
| Flexibility | Displays change with every new model or season | Track, zoom and grid fittings that re-aim by hand |
| No glare | Customers look up at products and across reflective surfaces | Deep-recessed and grille optics |
Car showrooms
Cars have large, curved, reflective surfaces. A few strong spots create hard reflections; many softer sources create an even, glossy finish that shows the shape of the car.
- Wash the whole car with wide beams, 36° to 60°, from several directions.
- Pick out details such as badges, wheels and interiors with 15° to 24° beams.
- Use a zoom spot where one fitting has to do both. The zoomable track spotlight adjusts from 15° to 60° on the head.
- Keep reflections soft with grille fittings such as the double-row grille track light, which put many small sources in one body.
Furniture, kitchen and bathroom showrooms
These showrooms are built as room sets. Each set needs a base light that feels like a home and accent light on the products.
- Warm colour temperature, 2700K to 3000K, makes room sets feel residential.
- Aimable recessed spots such as the recessed tiltable downlight and round grid downlight light a sofa or worktop from a clean ceiling.
- Track in open areas lets the team re-light a room set in minutes when it is rebuilt.
Product and brand showrooms
Electronics, fashion and brand showrooms often use a cooler, crisper light and tighter accent. The square grid downlight puts two aimable heads in one opening, so a single ceiling position can light a display table and a wall. For galleries and exhibitions, see gallery and museum lighting.
One model, set per display
Most of our track spot and downlight series can be supplied with a switch on the fixture that sets the power level and one of three colour temperatures on site, with dimming available alongside. A showroom can run warm light in the room sets and cooler light on a technology display from the same stocked model. The exact steps are confirmed per model on your quotation.
For optics by ceiling height, see the beam angle guide. For recommended light levels, see the lux levels guide.
