ALANOD is your only source for large-surface aluminum sheet and coil products
with uniform total luminous reflectance of up to 98%.
The operating efficiency of modern lighting systems can be increased by up to
20% with the use of PVD-coated (physical vapor deposition) aluminum strip.
MIRO® saves substantial electricity, particularly when used in compact T5
display workstation fixtures, fluorescent Highbays (lighting fixtures for high ceiling spaces), HID
applications (high-intensity discharge lighting), and floodlight applications. PVD-coated aluminum
strip also has advantages in daylight lighting technology.
Venetian blind louvers fabricated from MIRO® DAYLIGHT redirect daylight into
the interior of a building. Similarly, light pipes fabricated from MIRO® DAYLIGHT bring
daylight from a roof into a room with minimal alteration of the color spectrum. These light
pipes can extend over more than one storey. At incident light angles of 0-45°, light pipes with
MIRO-SILVER® deliver up to 78% higher light intensity than with comparable commercially available
products. Architects, lighting designers, facility managers, and end-users all report that they
have achieved major savings of lighting operating costs with MIRO® products. Intelligently
designed daylight lighting systems also reduce energy consumption for heating and air conditioning.
Properly engineered lighting and daylight lighting systems using MIRO® provide ergonomically
improved illumination for workstations, increasing productivity, motivating workers, and reducing
errors and accidents. You will find other suggestions for saving energy and money by the use of
ALANOD products in other chapters of this DVD.
