From recycled composites to advanced polymers and acrylics, each material is selected for its unique visual and structural qualities. Through experimentation and innovation, familiar materials are transformed into expressive lighting with distinctive form, texture, and character.
Composite materials are made by combining different ingredients to achieve a specific result: strength, flexibility, texture, translucency, or light diffusion.
In lighting, composite is used because it can do things traditional materials cannot.
Strong resin-based material used to create durable, sculptural lighting forms with custom color, texture, and depth.
Thin mineral layer that gives the look and texture of stone while staying lighter and allowing soft light to pass through.
Clear, impact-resistant plastic used when lighting needs strength without glass fragility.
An optical material that bends light, creating depth, reflection, and visual movement.
Flexible, crystal-like material that gives a glass effect with less weight.
Translucent material designed to diffuse light evenly, soften glare, and create a smooth glow.
Resins, polymers, fibers, or mineral fillers are selected based on the strength, texture, clarity, and light effect needed.
The ingredients are measured and mixed to control color, opacity, durability, and how the material interacts with light.
The composite is poured or pressed into molds, allowing curved, sculptural, and detailed lighting forms.
Each piece is trimmed, sanded, or finished by hand to reveal texture, clarity, and surface detail.
Lighting components are integrated into the fixture, with structure, wiring, and optical performance checked.
Each fixture is inspected for finish, structure, and illumination before shipment.
Recycled composite gives material waste a second life without making the product feel “recycled” in a negative way. When properly selected, processed, and tested, recycled composite can be strong, refined, and visually rich.
Raw Material Selection Recycled materials are selected for strength, texture, and finish.
Materials are checked for consistency, and impurities are removed.
Ingredients are mixed into a uniform compound with the desired color and texture.
Samples are tested for strength, light diffusion, and fixture performance.
The compound is molded, pressed, or cast into shades, panels, and fixture parts.
Each piece is checked for finish, structure, clarity, and safe assembly.
Why It Works in Lighting
Made from recycled polyethylene, selected for durability, consistency, and future recyclability.
Material is sorted and cleaned to remove impurities and support a consistent finish.
Processed into pellets or powder, then tested for strength, flexibility, and purity.
Shaped into smooth, seamless forms ideal for durable indoor and outdoor lighting.
Each piece is checked for surface quality, structure, durability, and safe electrical assembly.
