Sports facilities put in the right place
With refurbishment, this can be achieved in the shortest possible time
Modern stadiums must ensure high-quality sports lighting that also uses as little energy as possible. However, the lighting in many sports facilities is no longer up to date - with consequences for visual quality and operating costs. The FL 11 maxi pro floodlight from SITECO combines the demands of lighting quality and energy efficiency. And lets the sports facility in Kungsängen, Sweden, shine in the best light.
Sports facilities lighting SV Schwindegg
In order to create perfect training conditions for their members, SV Schwindegg has refurbished their outdoor pitches with the floodlight FL 11 maxi / maxi Pro from SITECO. Some of the pitches were equipped with the Siteco Connects Sport control system, which makes it easy to control the sports lighting with just the swipe of a finger.
With optimal lighting conditions for maximum fun, not only the club members benefit - the sports club is also offered a lucrative investment through reduction of operating costs and eligibility for subsidies from the BMUV and BLSV.
Refurbishment of sport facilities
LED floodlight: The right new addition for every club
Saving energy? Absolutely. But cold showers after a workout? That doesn't have to be the case. Because if you invest smartly in new sports field lighting now, you can benefit several times over. And there's money left over for hot water, too. SITECO shows how it's done.
salzburgarena in Austria
The salzburgarena is known for its variety. Depending on the event, the lighting must be adapted individually. With Sirius, SITECO offers a revolutionary floodlight system for any kind of sport and event with unmatched performance, efficiency and light quality. Thanks to the RGB+W function, the best of two worlds can be combined: colorful emotional show lighting and standard-compliant, glare-free light for sporting events.
Karoline-Luise-Tunnel in Karlsruhe
To move a large part of the traffic underground in order to provide more peace and calm in the inner city area. This goal was pursued with the Karoline-Luise Tunnel in Karlsruhe. The lighting of the 1.4 km long tunnel is supplied by SITECO with a combi-solution consisting of TL13 drive-through luminaires, TL33S entrance luminaires and the TL23 in the area of the breakdown bay.
In addition to optimum visibility and maximum visual comfort, lighting technology can also sustainably reduce the CO² balance in the tunnel.
