  • Lamp efficacy

    Lamp efficacy

    Ensuring the lamp efficiently converts electricity into light (lm/W).

  • Ballast classification

    Ballast classification

    Controlling the electricity supply to the lamp (Energy Efficiency Index).

  • Luminaire distribution

    Luminaire distribution

    Precise patented optics allow the light distribution to be chosen exactly for the scheme and road conditions.

  • System efficacy

    System efficacy

    Designed for LED luminaires with precision optics and cooling combine to provide great luminaire efficacy.

  • Presence/absence detection

    Presence/absence detection

    Presence: Lights automatically turn on/off with movement. Absence: Lights automatically turn off and must be manually switched on.

  • Daylight detection

    Daylight detection

    Artificial lighting which responds to the natural light conditions.

  • Constant illuminance

    Constant illuminance

    A function designed to produce correct light levels for the duration of the maintenance period.

  • Task-scene setting

    Task-scene setting

    Allowing the user to set scenes and adapt the lighting to different tasks.

  • Timed off

    Timed off

    Automatic cut-off can be installed to turn all lights off during unoccupied hours.

  • Task lighting

    Task lighting

    Increased emphasis on the roundabout provides excellent task visibility from a reduced number of fittings.

  • Zoning of lighting

    Zoning of lighting

    Lighting is zoned according to area use.

  • Maintenance schedule

    Maintenance schedule

    Maintenance must be performed in response to product age, performance and environment.

  • Waste light

    Waste light

    Eliminating waste light which does not hit the intended target.

  • Reflectance

    Reflectance

    Taking advantage of light which is reflected from the surface within the space.

  • Visible smart metering

    Visible smart metering

    Results of actions can be quickly seen as increased or decreased energy use to encourage responsible energy consumption.

With StyLED now in place, the maintained average luminance had been improved to a fully compliant 37 lux with good uniformity and glare control


To meet new roundabout regulations, the lighting at the Frassa crossing roundabout in Corigliano Calabro has been updated and improved with Thorn's StyLED road lantern. This compact roundabout has an outer diameter of 25 meters and a circular central island and is partially passible for heavy goods vehicles. The refurbishment therefore had to take into account the feasibility for large commercial vehicles and road type 'C', as well as highway secondary subtype 'D'.

The new lighting system comprises four columns fitted with StyLED, all 6 meters high and placed along the central ring circumference of the central island. StyLED is a versatile, durable LED lantern for major and minor roads. It benefits from the EQFlux® optical system, which offers 15 pre-set light distributions to suit differing applications.

With StyLED now in place, the maintained average luminance had been improved to a fully compliant 37 lux with good uniformity and glare control. StyLED's light engine and controller are also housed in two separate IP66 rated compartments for optimised thermal management and in turn longer life.
