LIANNA ‒ redefining linear lighting excellence
The ultimate solution for industrial and retail lighting
Linear lighting is the preferred option for illuminating industrial and retail spaces, shaping a competitive arena for industry players. By conducting thorough research, we’ve explored the fundamental challenges of linear lighting, including everything from cost constraints to insufficient system efficacy, optic gaps, limited length options, and unsuitability for damp or dusty environments. Addressing these pain points, our new linear lens family – LIANNA – emerges as the solution, offering the most cost and energy-efficient linear lighting available.
LIANNA’s strength lies in its unparalleled flexibility. Whether you’re aiming to optimise for the best efficacy or prioritise the cheapest bill of materials (BOM), LIANNA rises to the occasion. Let’s explore both scenarios in more detail, with the goal of achieving 180 lm/W efficacy in each case using traditional 1-row and 3-row IP solutions, as well as LIANNA IP.
Focus on the best efficacy
When focusing on efficacy and utilising the best efficacy MP LEDs, LIANNA’s advantage becomes evident. With a higher optic count of 36 pcs/ft compared to the standard single-row solution’s 24 pcs/ft, LIANNA achieves an impressive efficacy of 187 lm/W, which is 26 lm/W higher than a typical 1-row IP solution. A similar efficacy can be achieved with a standard 3-row IP solution, but at a 20 % higher cost than the standard 1-row IP solution.

Focus on the cheapest BOM
If the bill of materials is the primary consideration, LIANNA remains the top choice. Its higher optic count, compared to the traditional 1-row IP solution, allows for the use of more affordable mid-power LEDs without compromising efficacy. While the 3-row solution can also use cheaper LEDs, the total solution is 16 % more expensive than the 1-row option.

Beam versatility
LIANNA is optimised for two-row PCB modules with 3030 and 2835 LEDs, while also fully compatible with single LEDs and 1×2 clusters. Designed for excellent low-UGR performance, the range offers a wide selection of beam angles to suit different applications. These include symmetrical beams in 110°, 90°, 60°, and 30°, as well as asymmetrical options that allow for more tailored and directional lighting. The polar diagrams below show how these beams range from wide flood distributions for uniform illumination to narrow, focused beams and asymmetrical patterns that minimise glare while directing light exactly where it’s needed.
See the beam performance in the simulations below. These renderings provide a clear visual comparison of how each beam angle performs in a realistic environment, helping to illustrate the practical impact of beam selection.
Customisable lengths, aesthetics, IP
LIANNA features a versatile two-row lens design that combines performance with flexibility, making it easy to tailor the optic to almost any desired length in 1-foot increments. This approach not only supports a wide range of luminaire designs but also ensures a seamless, modern aesthetic without compromise. Whether the goal is creating long continuous lines of light or shorter, more compact fixtures, LIANNA adapts effortlessly to the application.
For our initial sales, we offer lengths of 4, 5, and 6 feet, ensuring a seamless aesthetic solution with no gaps. In addition, we offer 60- and 90-degree beams in 2-foot lengths that can be used either as stand alone units or in combination with other lengths. Furthermore, attaching LIANNA to the luminaire is effortless thanks to its secure side clips.
When it comes to protection, creating an IP-rated solution for damp and dusty environments is straightforward with LIANNA. By eliminating the need for separate cover glass – which can reduce efficacy and increase BOM costs – the system makes it easy to achieve robust IP66 protection at the luminaire level. The video below demonstrates just how simple and efficient this process can be.
LIANNA stands as a beacon of innovation in the linear lighting domain.
In conclusion, LIANNA stands as a beacon of innovation in the linear lighting domain. With its unparalleled flexibility, efficiency, and adaptability, LIANNA not only addresses the core challenges of traditional linear lighting but also sets new standards for performance and versatility. Step into the light with LIANNA and revolutionise your illumination journey.
