10:00 Visit of Ragni Stand (Hall 4 Level 0 / Booth C11)
Founded in 1927, Ragni is one of the last remaining independent French manufacturers in street lighting equipment. Four generations of directors have grown the business according to their own family approach, without surrendering the company’s personality. Traditional, functional and contemporary luminaires, with LED or traditional light sources, solar powered streetlights, and a broad selection of standard or made to measure lighting solutions means that the product range has evolved with the times and now offers all round lighting solutions. As skilled craftsmen producing industrially, Ragni has built up a reputation for being able to adjust production to the requirements. Reactivity and efficiency are two of the company’s attributes that are both widely recognized and highly appreciated by its French & worldwide customers since the company exports its luminaires & lighting expertise through 40 abroad countries.
11:15 Visit of Leipziger Leuchten Stand (Hall 3 Level 0 / Booth E31)
Leipziger Leuchten produces light concepts for urban and rural areas. In addition to decorative and industrial outdoor luminaires, the company also manufactures urban furniture to complement its lighting range. Thereby a variety of functional product families have been developed in the same type of design as the light fittings. This concept of engineering and design started in 1889 when the first street luminaires were produced in Leipzig. Diligence, flexibility, service, engineering progress, skills, motivated staff, teamwork, are some of the prominent features which have played a major role in shaping Leipziger Leuchten and are now its integral part. We are especially proud to offer lighting solutions for almost all requirements ranging from architects to engineers.
12:30 Lunch, offered by Signify (Forum level 0 / Agenda meeting room)
13:20 Visit of Signify Stand and Restricted Innovations Area (Forum level 0 / Booth A01)
Signify has placed sustainability at the heart of its purpose. This drives its LED lighting innovations, guides the way it operates and inspires its commitment to be carbon neutral by the end of 2020. With energy-efficient connected lighting, Signify turns light sources into data collection points, to save even more energy by delivering light when and where it’s needed. With its software, the company knows where and when to perform maintenance, which saves money and extends the life of products. Signify is embracing plastic-free packaging and by 3D printing, it designs and manufactures customized, recyclable products for a circular economy. Five themes address global priorities: climate action, circular economy, food availability, health & wellbeing, safety & security. They are Signify’ s blueprint to contribute to create a more sustainable future for all.
