CrispColor Technology from the LUXEON Stylist Series helps retailers strengthen the company’s brand. By creating a signature lighting which is consistent in every store in the world, customers will feel confident and comfortable to spend more time in browsing and shopping.

Available in multiple lumen packages and a wide color range (2700K to 5000K), these CoB arrays meet the exacting lighting requirements of fashion retail stores.

The LUXEON Stylist Series also includes LUXEON CoB with CrispWhite Technology, which is optimized to reveal the whitest whites in fashion retail items. To achieve that, it combines a specific color point at 3000K with a specialized spectra to activate the Fluorescent Whitening Agents (FWA) present in fabrics and paints. “From the moment the customer steps into the store, there is a ‘wow factor’ they cannot explain,” said Claudia Kansy of MS Mode, a retailer that installed LUXEON CoB with CrispWhite Technology in MS Mode’s flagship store. The new generation of LUXEON CoB with CrispWhite Technology boasts a 13% improvement in efficacy at the same lumens, compared to the previous generation.
