LEDVANCE

LEDVANCE, a global leader in lighting solutions, lights up BayArena: The Leverkusen-based football stadium of Bundesliga club Bayer 04 Leverkusen wanted to install a new lighting concept, so the illumination system used during football matches adheres to UEFA Elite Level A standards, ensuring the action remains crystal clear for both thousands of fans in the stadium and millions watching the live broadcast worldwide.

The BayArena is the home of the reigning German Bundesliga champions and DFB-Cup winners Bayer 04 Leverkusen, and the new floodlight system should be equally as good. With upcoming international matches, the club took action to revamp the stadium lighting system to not only meet, but to exceed the latest UEFA lighting requirements. With LEDVANCE, Bayer 04 Leverkusen developed a modern, state-of-the-art LED-based lighting concept for the stadium.

By replacing the existing luminaires with FL Arena floodlights, the stadium’s floodlight system now allows for greater functionality and therefore more options for color changes, light levels and show effects. FL Arena floodlights leverage cutting-edge LED technology, delivering superior illumination quality and light distribution while reducing energy consumption, thus significantly reducing BayArena’s environmental footprint. At the same time, maintenance demands are also significantly reduced, enhancing both efficiency and performance.

Thomas Fobbe, Territory Head DACH, LEDVANCE: “We are excited to continue our strategic partnership with Bayer 04 Leverkusen. The BayArena project is a milestone setting new standards in lighting quality and sustainability in sports lighting.” In 2023, LEDVANCE already developed a modern lighting concept for the Ulrich Haberland Stadium, the venue of the Bayer 04 Leverkusen women’s Bundesliga team.

Felix Duden, Managing Director TecArena-Plus GmbH: “The renewal of the floodlight system at BayArena allows us to perform at the highest level as far as lighting technology is concerned. With LEDVANCE as our sustainability partner for lighting, we have a true team player in the line-up to further advance our sustainability goals. We have been investing in more sustainable systems and have been emphasizing responsible use of resources for several years. All our club's buildings will be sustainably equipped with ecological LED technology within the next few years.”

The BayArena’s new floodlight system is located on several rings installed under the roof, with the outer ring only being accessible by climbers. Each FL Arena floodlight therefore had to be pulled up and fixed in its new position separately.

In addition to the floodlights, cables for the power supply and DMX lines for the lighting control had to be installed as well. Indirect illumination will be provided by each of the 36 roof segments by four RGB and one red-only FL Arena floodlights, ensuring atmospheric lighting throughout the football season.

BayArena’s new floodlight system is worthy of the Champions League contender: 324 lights are installed on the inner rings for floodlighting. The 60 Quattro luminaires installed for stand lighting feature both white and RGB chips, adding vibrant colors to enhance spectators' visual experience and enjoyment. Each floodlight is individually controllable, allowing for a wide range of lighting scenarios at the touch of a button. This cutting-edge system not only meets but exceeds the strictest UEFA requirements, ensuring the stadium is fully prepared for the upcoming matches.

LEDVANCE is honored to announce its inclusion in the prestigious 2024 IES Progress Report by The Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) Progress Committee. This recognition, unveiled during IES24: The Lighting Conference in New York City from August 15-17, emphasizes LEDVANCE's commitment to advancing the art and science of lighting.

First wave of all-new lamps and luminaires with at least 40 percent recycled plastics to be available in stores and online as of Mid-November.

With the launch of its new NATURELOOP product range, LEDVANCE presses ahead with its LEDVANCE LOOP concept of transforming the lighting industry into a greener one. The all-new lamps and luminaires are made of at least 40 percent post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastics based on the plastic content of the product. Also, less CO2 is released during production compared to previous products. The first luminaires from the range are damp proof models as they mostly consist of plastics and thus offer the biggest opportunity for replacement with PCR materials. The six new products will be available in stores and online from January 2024. Before that, customers will be able to select from 20 new lamp types, coming to stores and to the LEDVANCE online shop in Mid-November.

As part of the first wave of its new NATURELOOP product range, LEDVANCE is launching 20 OSRAM labeled lamps. The LED Classic NATURELOOP lamps for general lighting purposes in private and public areas feature housing and diffusors made of at least 40 percent PCR plastics. They cover replacement wattages from 40W to 100W with a luminous flux of 470 lm up to 1521 lm. As of Mid-November, they will be available in stores and in the LEDVANCE web shop in three shapes with 2700K and 4000K color temperatures.

Additionally, the first wave of NATURELOOP products includes six damp proof luminaires that are sold under the LEDVANCE brand. The Submarine NATURELOOP features housing, diffusor and clips made of at least 40 percent PCR plastics. The IP65 protected luminaires feature a new look with their stained white color appearance. They are launched as single or double versions with 7W (2x7W), 13.5W (2x13.5W) and 20W (2x20W) respectively as well as a luminous flux between 110 lm and 6200 lm and a color temperature of 4000K. The luminaires will be available in retail and online from January 2024.

“In line with our overall sustainability endeavors under the LEDVANCE LOOP umbrella, we took a critical look at our products to see if it is technically possible to use recyclable materials for them. Our goal is to reduce the use of new plastics and increase the recycling rate in our manufacturing process,” says Sebastian Schweissgut, Head of Product & Portfolio Management RESIDENTIAL EU-W at LEDVANCE. “We are excited to see customers’ reactions to our all-new product range of more sustainable lamps and luminaires and look forward to announcing more products soon.”

Recently, LEDVANCE has introduced the sub-brand LEDVANCE LOOP for all of the company's sustainability initiatives, including the launch of the NATURLOOP and EVERLOOP product ranges. This umbrella-and-spokes model covers all efforts and measures across the company to transform the lighting industry into a greener one. Find out more about the concept behind the LEDVANCE LOOP brand here.

More information on the NATURELOOP lamps can be found here.

The lighting experts from LEDVANCE launch a new product series, EVERLOOP, featuring luminaires with conveniently replaceable LED light sources and drivers. Rather than disposing of luminaires in their entirety, the product lifecycle of EVERLOOP luminaires supports various individual changes of light sources and drivers as well as software upgrades and thus maximize their lifespan and reduce waste. EVERLOOP products are not only a sustainable choice but also a convenient one for installers. The first model of the series to be available is the LEDVANCE Linear IndiviLED Gen 2 in December 2023 as direct and indirect versions with On/Off or DALI options respectively.

With EVERLOOP, LEDVANCE promotes a circular economy by maximizing the lifespan of their luminaires. Rather than having to replace luminaires in their entirety individual light sources and drivers can be conveniently replaced. This makes EVERLOOP a sustainable and convenient choice for installers, planners, and facility managers, among others for sustainable efficiency of industrial and office applications as well as public buildings. Benefits include an extended lifetime and reduced waste, as well as cost savings, and maintaining the same looks in architectural settings as luminaires’ components can be replaced.

“EVERLOOP is our answer to the challenge of going from a linear to a circular product lifecycle for luminaires, contributing to the EU’s plan to reduce electronic waste,” said Nuno Paiva, Head of Professional Portfolio Management at LEDVANCE. “The key feature of EVERLOOP luminaires is that critical components, such as the light sources and drivers, are conveniently upgradeable or replaceable, with available spare parts. That makes the luminaire EVER-lasting. In the future, we intend to integrate this feature into more and more of our luminaire series to save material and minimize waste.”

The IndiviLED models will be followed by additional EVERLOOP models in 2024 including LEDVANCE Panel IndiviLED Gen 2 and LEDVANCE Damp Proof G2 among others.

It's about more than just being environmentally conscious; it's about reshaping our practices, reducing our carbon footprint, creating collaborative spaces, and promoting ethical business conduct. As we evolve, we're not only enhancing our competitiveness but also nurturing a sustainable future for our business, the environment, and our people. It's our pledge to do better today than we did yesterday and to inspire others to join us on this path. This is what LEDVANCE LOOP stands for.”

March 2024 holds a highlight for the entire lighting industry: Light + Building in Frankfurt. This trade fair serves as a major international gathering to explore the latest lighting trends, and as always, lighting expert LEDVANCE will be in attendance. And it has some particularly exciting news to share: Under the motto "Power Through Light", not only the company but also its customers and partners will be entering a whole new era.
