The ambience lighting
of Trisobbio
C
ariboni group, in collaboration with
the municipality of Trisobbio, is an active
part of the energy requalification of lighting
system of one of the oldest villages of Monferrato.
Project objectives
The main objective of the intervention consists
of starting a process of optimization and increasing
the efficiency in Public Lighting system, which
guarantees energy saving for the Administration,
reduction of maintenance interventions and lighting
engineering renovation complying with current
regulation in terms of safety and light pollution.
In addition to the unavoidable objectives of
environmental impact reduction, the project aims
at enhancing urban space and improving the
liveability of old town centres and residential areas.
The project not only satisfies the functional needs
of the area of interest, but is committed to protect
the historic value of the place, improve driveability,
and increase the real and perceived security levels
of the people living there.
The enhancement of history
The selection of street furniture components
followed the same criteria for enhancing the urban
environment of the rest of the project. Cariboni
proposed for the intervention Agathos lantern with
LED technology. Agathos has completely replaced
the old luminaires in the village. Product geometries
are coherent with the environment and LED
technology has improved its perception thanks
to the optical systems designed for old town centres,
a high colour rendering index and a warmer colour
temperature that fits to materials of the village.
Agathos has been provided both Post Top and
Suspension Arm versions for a coherent intervention
with the existing system.
The benefits of the project
Overall, the project has expected important benefits
for the municipality like an energy saving, in some
cases, up to 70%; operating costs saving, thanks
to less maintenance of the light fittings and
upgrading obsolete systems. The area of interest
is predominantly pedestrian and the correct
lighting project contributes to the reduction
of crime, vandalism and accidents.
In addition to reducing light pollution,
the environmental benefits, such as the strong waste
reduction destined for disposal, are noteworthy.
Thanks to the use of more durable light sources
and totally recyclable materials based on the “whole
metal + glass” standard production, the project
aligns itself with the principles of circular economy,
product life cycle extension and waste reduction.
The project for the redevelopment of the village
of Trisobbio is a completely “Made in Italy”
intervention, indeed Italian producers have been
selected to provide all materials.
