LED Downlights
LED downlights are multifunctional recessed fixtures that can be placed in ceilings. Their multifunctionality makes them suited for different places such as schools and offices but also staircases. In our assortment, there are LED downlights available in many different options. You can for example purchase them with different beam angles and they are available in different colour temperatures (warm white, cool white and daylight white). There are also dimmable options. In other words, you can always find a suitable LED Downlight for you! If you still have questions about LED downlights, please read our frequently asked questions below.
The colour code is a combination of colour rendering (CRI) and light colour (Kelvin). The first number indicates the colour rendering (1 = very poor colour rendering, 9 = maximum colour fastness). The second and third number contains the light colour. Example: the colour code 830 consists of good colour rendering (8) and warm white light (3000K).
The IP value indicates the degree of protection against the ingress of moisture and dust. The 1st digit (0 = not protected until 6 = completely dustproof) indicates the protection against dust. The 2nd digit (0 = not protected until 8 = protected against immersion) indicates the protection against water. Products with an IP44 rating are splashproof and products with an IP65 rating or higher are (completely) dustproof and waterproof.
Lighting with a built-in emergency lighting unit (battery) continues to burn for a certain time if the power fails.
Our all-in warranty is fully included in the product price and covers both hidden defects and technical defects of the product that occurred before delivery. The warranty period differs per product and ranges from 1 year to a maximum of 5 years.
Every bulb or fixture has an energy efficiency class A to G. Energy label A is the most efficient and G the least. LED lighting is the most sustainable lighting technique. Even if a LED bulb is rated E or lower, they still save 70% of energy compared to conventional lighting with the same energy label. Why is it the same label then? To motivate LED brands to get even more durable.

What additional options can I choose when buying downlights?
Besides the desired shape (round, square, etc.), you can also choose fixtures which are dimmable.
How do I install an LED downlight in the desired location?
After making the cut in the ceiling, you can connect an LED downlight to the mains (230V) and then fix it in the ceiling. This is often done by using two sturdy stainless-steel clamps.
Why are LED downlights more efficient than conventional fixtures?
This is down to the power, or wattage. As a result, the downlight needs less energy to generate light, which means that in most cases, you will save more than 70% in energy costs thanks to the LED technology.
Can I also get LED downlights that can be used outside?
LED downlights with an IP44 value or higher (= splash-proof) can be installed outdoors. If you want a fixture that is completely resistant to dust and water/rain, then we recommend choosing a product with an IP65 value.
What are the advantages of a dimmable LED downlight?
You can save even more on energy costs, because the fixture does not need to turn on at its brightest. And by choosing LED downlights with the colour warm white, you can create a better ambiance by dimming the lighting.
What does the saw size mean?
The saw size refers to the part of an LED downlight that clips into the ceiling. Please note: the saw size is, therefore, not the full diameter of the fixture.
Can I also mount an LED downlight to the surface?
We have several downlights that are suitable as surface-mounted downlights. Click here to see our surface-mounted downlights.
