The Evolution Of Lighting Comfort Through Hexagonal Precision Flawless Optics That Endure: THE NEW PYRA GRIDS

IN SHORT

The Pyra40 series is more than just a grid—it is a sophisticated light-guiding system. Featuring a precise hexagonal geometry and an innovative anti-dust gradation, it sets a new benchmark for technical lighting aesthetics.

THE FUTURE OF LOW-MAINTENANCE DESIGN

Pyra40 is the definitive answer to the growing demand for highly aesthetic, low-maintenance lighting in modern workspaces and high-end residential environments.

MAXIMUM VERSATILITY, MINIMAL EFFORT

Aesthetic Choice: Available in black, white, or a translucent finish for a brighter, more brilliant appearance compared to traditional grids.

Precision Optics: Choose from 35°, 65°, 85°, or Asymmetric distributions to suit any project requirement.

Uniform Integration: All grids share the same luminaire or profile, allowing you to swap lighting effects while using the same luminaires.

UNCOMPROMISED LIGHT QUALITY

Visual Comfort: Our optics deliver perfect color-over-angle consistency and a smooth, soft light output.

High Efficiency: Big, round single lenses, engineered to collect light from 4 mid-power LEDs in a square cluster, ensure high optical efficacy with significantly reduced glare.

Dynamic Lighting: Optimized for Tunable White or single-color applications, the system is designed for future.

Light&Dark Pyra40: Where Intelligent Engineering Meets Pure Aesthetics

The Innovation: Form follows function – down to the smallest detail
Black reflector systems are the epitome of modern, elegant lighting architecture. However, their greatest weakness lies in their honesty: every speck of dust is highlighted by the light source, compromising the visual quality. Pyra40 solves this fundamental problem through a radical redesign of the surface geometry.

The Design Concept: Hexagonal pyramidal stepping
Instead of relying on smooth surfaces, the Pyra grids utilizes high-precision, pyramid-shaped stepping within its hexagonal honeycomb structure. This complex micro-architecture serves two purposes:

Visual Absorption
The stepping cleverly breaks the light reflection on the surface so that dust particles visually recede into the background. The luminaire maintains its pristine, deep-black aesthetic—regardless of maintenance cycles.

Photometric Brilliance
The geometric structure creates a unique technical lighting effect. Light is directed with maximum precision while visible glare is reduced to a minimum. This creates a fascinating depth effect, transforming the grid itself into an architectural design element.

Sustainability and Aesthetics
Pyra grids are not only an aesthetic response to a technical challenge but also a commitment to longevity. By reducing the visibility of contamination, cleaning intervals are extended, which lowers operating costs and preserves the perceived value of the architecture over years.

Summary
Pyra40 grids transform a functional component into an intelligent light-control system. Through the symbiosis of mathematically exact hexagonal geometry and innovative anti-dust stepping, the grids set new standards for the aesthetics of technical lighting. It is the perfect answer to the demand for low-maintenance yet highly aesthetic lighting solutions in modern work and living environments.

Pyra40 und Pyra40 Single Series – Two perfect lighting options for your light fixture

Pyra40: Precision, Efficiency, and Seamless Integration

Elevate your lighting design with the Pyra40 series, engineered for high-performance single-row optics with a 40 mm light-point pitch. This system combines aesthetic refinement with an ultra-fast assembly process.

 

Effortless Assembly & Seamless Design

Plug & Play: Optics and LED modules screw together securely, while the grids simply click into place.

Invisible Transitions: Use our 1Rx7 box-edge versions for continuous rows. They eliminate light gaps between modules, creating a flawless, uninterrupted line of light.

Versatile Configurations: Choose 1Rx4 or 1Rx7 short-end grids for compact, standalone fixtures or as clean end-caps for linear runs. 

Superior Light Quality: The Pyra40 system delivers a smooth, glare-free output with a soft cut-off, ensuring premium visual comfort without compromising on assembly speed.


Pyra40 Single: High-Performance Precision

Designed specifically for Light&Dark Single lenses, the Pyra40 Single range offers maximum flexibility for both compact and linear luminaires.

 

Fast-Track Installation: Lenses snap directly into the grids, which then click securely onto the dedicated grid holder.

Scalable Solutions: Available in 1Rx2, 1Rx4, and 1Rx7 lengths to fit any luminaire footprint.

 
Why choose Pyra40 Single?

Visual Excellence: Achieve precise light distribution with high optical efficacy.

Reduced Glare: A larger light-emitting surface minimizes visual discomfort.

Perfect Color Mixing: Thanks to advanced microstructured surfaces, the system provides exceptional color-over-angle uniformity—making it the ideal choice for Tunable White applications, even at narrow beam angles.
