Biopolymer Lighting
Our growing biopolymer collection reflects our commitment to creating products that are kinder to the planet. Each biopolymer retail light you buy replaces aluminium equivalents, reducing the environmental impact of mined, smelted, and imported materials.
Biopolymer — A Better Material
The biopolymer materials we use come from sugar cane, a productive and water-efficient plant. It is also land-efficient and mainly irrigated by natural rainfall. Like all plants, it captures CO2 during growth. Sugar cane is harvested, milled, and then split into sugar and ethanol, with its leftover pulp used as biofuel to power industries and cities.
When fermented the ethanol creates bioethanol, which forms the basis for the NonOilen and GreenTEC Pro biopolymers we use. Both conform to standards for biodegradability and compostability (EN13432 and EN14855). We use the best biopolymers currently available for 3D printing.
UK Made Retail Lighting
Most retail lighting products are made from virgin aluminium and are imported from the Far East. By producing 3D printed biopolymer lighting in Peterborough, UK, we are helping retail brands significantly reduce manufacturing, transport, and operational carbon emissions when compared to traditional aluminium products.
There is no cost barrier to entry and our biopolymers are easily returnable through Circu-light. This means the impact of our biopolymer range continues to grow.
Customisable and Upgradable
Our modular design approach means we take advantage of advancements in technology and our products always use the latest and most energy-efficient components. Instead of discarding lighting products to landfill at the first sign of a fault or after use, we help our clients repair, upgrade, reuse and recycle materials and products.
Furthermore, our 3D printed products are customisable, so they can fit existing hole sizes, which significantly reduces the cost and environmental damage of replacing ceiling tiles or redecorating. In addition, as our products are digital and do not require tooling, their appearance and textures can be infinitely adjusted.
We are leading the way in sustainable retail lighting, showing global brands that there is a better way to light their retail stores.
