A modern industrial architecture on the Gira Campus, Germany
In October 2018, two and a half years after the laying of the foundation stone, Gira opened its new production, development and logistics centre at the company’s headquarters in Radevormwald (Germany). On an area covering 30,000 square metres, this imposing building offers space for approximately 550 employees within the production, logistics and development areas. The lighting used for the production, logistics and office areas are LED lighting systems which are mainly supplied by Insta.
The „Gira Campus“ on the Röntgenstraße, is in many respects setting new standards. Not only is the building fitted out with one of the most modern fully digital small parts and high-bay racking storage systems, but thanks to an intelligent climate concept, uses 45 percent less energy than a similar production building. So, it goes without saying, that high demands were also placed on efficiency and intelligence where the lighting was concerned. Assigned with the technical side of things, pbe Beljuli Planungsgesellschaft mbH chose for most parts of the new building to use the LED systems from Insta for their lighting concept.
No problem in spanning six metres
In particular, where the production area was concerned, the lightline system instalight NoLimit was found to be the perfect solution. Equipped with a high-performance illuminant, especially designed for industrial lighting, the linear system whilst also complying with conformity standards was able to provide for balanced lighting throughout all of the working areas. Due to its robust aluminium frame, a suspension point was only required every six metres, thus reducing the installation time and minimalising any particular assembly problems which might have occurred.
The optics already excellently glare-free in the C0-C180 plane have been extended by a louvre for the illumination of the small parts store, which also guarantees perfect glare freedom in the longitudinal direction.
The linear lighting system is complemented by suspended downlights of the type instalight 3016 which are responsible for the illumination of the transportation areas within the high-bay warehouse. Fitted at a height of 21 metres, the downlights care for a balanced illumination of the driving and walking thoroughfares at ground level whilst also providing for a pleasant vertical illuminance on the wall surfaces.
Uniformed styling for every lighting requirement
Thanks to NoLimit Systems’ wide variety, the style of design is carried on through from the production area also into the entrée of the new Gira Campus, where diffused light, emitting from lighting inserts set within frameless recesses decently emphasise the open structure of the stairway. A further NoLimit variant is a pendant luminaire which follows exactly the geometry of the reception desk.
To illuminate the conference rooms and thoroughfares within the administration areas, we added numerous lights which we took from our instalight Flat and instalight Tec family of lights. Both systems are equipped with a homogenous planar light emission and an inconspicuous fixture which subtlety blends into with the building’s architecture. Particularly striking is the recessed ceiling luminaire instalight Flat 2044 which had been customised for this purpose. Thanks to its two-piece mechanical design the lamp also serves as an inspection port. This means that maintenance work within the intermediate ceiling is child’s play as the light can be simply removed.
All of Insta’s installed lighting solutions within the new Gira building are taken from the latest in LED technology. Maximum efficiency and minimum maintenance expenditures are guaranteed.
