LIGHTING with heritage lanterns . Taken together , these new options within the range allow designers to respond to the growing market shift away from the cooler end of the colour spectrum .
Expanding the connectivity options in the Heritage range was also a major focus for the upgrade , with the introduction of Bluetooth control . The wireless technology enables one-to-one adjustment or the opportunity for luminaires to communicate in a small , closed network , with no need for specialised central control modules , thus opening up greater levels of controllability for smaller-scale applications .
Energy efficiency was another key consideration , and the upgraded luminaires now achieve up to 180 lumens per watt , representing a 20 % increase compared to existing options .
Finally , the upgraded range also sees the addition of a new product , Windsor Urban – a highperformance , traditionally styled lantern . Inspired by the company ’ s flagship heritage luminaires and offering a low whole-life cost , the durable aluminium lantern is ideal for large-scale projects .
Alan Grant , Design & Development Director at DW Windsor , commented : “ DW Windsor has been a trusted brand for over 45 years . With these improvements , we ’ re spearheading the industry ’ s shift towards warmer colour temperatures while also providing flexible connectivity options for greater control . All of these improvements contribute towards a more efficient and sustainable product that will benefit clients and end-users alike .”
DW Windsor ’ s Heritage range spans from traditional Victorian-style lanterns with authentic aesthetics to more contemporary , mid-century luminaires , offering unparalleled efficiency and performance for period applications .
