Bohle, leading manufacturer and distributor of products for glass processing and finishing, has developed a new intelligent LED lighting solution that places products in the limelight without drawing attention to itself. The BevelLight range can be integrated into practically any glass shelf, virtually invisibly, attached with Bohle UV bonding technology to the front edge of the glass shelf so that it totally illuminates the shelf beneath.
"The ideal illumination of objects in showcases and other furniture is one of the toughest challenges in shopfitting and furniture construction," explained Steven Byrom, Product Manager at Bohle Limited. Unfortunately, most conventional lighting solutions are so conspicuous that they distract the viewer from what is supposed to be the focus of his attention; the product or exhibit on display. With BevelLight the product or exhibit becomes the point of focus.
The light shines at a specific angle through a hidden bevel at the front edge of the glass, allowing the light to radiate and reflect into the piece of furniture. As an integrative element, BevelLights can be built into glass constructions practically invisibly - a top quality stainless steel profile that fits over the bevel, concealing an LED lighting unit is all that can be seen of BevelLights. Power is supplied via a tiny low voltage strip which is attached, out of sight to the edge of the glass.
There are three different models in theBevelLights range: BevelLights Basic, which is ideal for wood-frame furniture and is connected to a low voltage power supply with a plug connection; BevelLights Contact has a touch contact at the back side of the glass shelf, which allows the shelves to be easily removed - when sliding the shelves back into place, they are automatically connected to the power supply at the contact points; BevelLights Flex Contact has the added feature that the shelves can be removed and then re-positioned as desired. This is made possible by a continuous conductor strip on the back panel of the furniture.
