The launch of the NORT GS Mini and Piston Bio marks a significant milestone for Shoplight, a company leading the way in sustainable retail lighting. Using the same thermal architecture, we have two groundbreaking products designed to offer maximum impact whilst using less resources. This innovation in materials and application is setting a new standard in the industry.
An Innovative Blend of Sustainability, Technical Advancement, and Value
The NORT GS Mini and Piston Bio are pushing at the boundaries of retail lighting development and exceeding the standards set by their aluminium counterparts, outperforming them in sustainability and technical excellence. The data shown, demonstrates how Shoplight are redefining retail lighting with their high-performance biopolymer options.
Small in Size Big In Impact
Though not limited to lighting smaller spaces, the NORT GS Mini and Piston Bio have been specifically designed to be less obtrusive, than earlier models. Moving away from traditionally overengineered and oversized lighting, they offer flexibility and finesse together with elegance and unmatched efficiency.
Driving Application Innovation
The NORT GS Mini and Piston Bio are the first in Shoplight’s biopolymer range to launch with reflectors and lenses, allowing retailers to prioritise either efficiency or light quality depending on their needs.
Resourcefulness Embedded in their DNA
The cutting-edge design of the NORT GS Mini and Piston Bio means that a single ‘light engine’ uses the same heatsink, lamp holder, LED COB, and reflectors or lenses in both products. This shared thermal architecture allows Shoplight to cater to varying customer needs with ease, promoting standardisation and versatility while reducing costs and environmental impact at every step of their production process.
Product Highlights
The NORT GS Mini and Piston Bio are two transformative lighting solutions designed to deliver modern aesthetics and efficient performance in compact forms. Both products offer compact brilliance, and flexibility with versatility within a closed loop design.
Compact Brilliance
NORT GS Mini: A smaller version of NORT and NORT GS, Shoplight’s popular track-mounted adjustable spotlights, the NORT GS Mini comes with a smaller in-track driver. It looks sleek, contemporary, and more discreet, making it ideal for low ceilings. With a 14W optimised thermal architecture, 350 degrees of rotation, and 90 degrees of angle adjustment, it ensures efficient lighting in a compact solution.
Piston Bio: A smaller version of our Colt Bio, the Piston Bio is a streamlined and contemporary recessed downlight. Its refined design allows for more space, enabling clusters of lights to be used for visual effect, particularly in fitting rooms and ceilings with small void spaces. With a 14W optimised thermal architecture, it offers luxurious and discreet lighting through an efficient and compact solution.
Flexible and Versatile
The NORT GS Mini and Piston Bio offer unprecedented versatility with modular design principles featuring interchangeable heat sinks, lamp holders, lenses, or reflectors, along with three distinct COB levels. This ensures optimal performance, efficiency, and lighting control, allowing retailers to tailor their lighting setup to their specific needs.
Furthermore, the Piston Bio is engineered for a seamless fit with a standard 67mm core drill cut-out, making installation straightforward. It comes with customisable outer bezels so brands can effortlessly and cost-effectively adapt to existing ceiling cut-outs up to 100mm.
Closed Loop Design
Both the NORT GS Mini and Piston Bio are designed with circularity in mind. Along with flexibility and versatility, their modular designs allow for easy servicing and upgrades which helps to keep customers at the forefront of retail lighting.
Made from materials that are better for the planet and using efficient manufacturing processes, these products are ideal for environmentally conscious brands. The Shoplight buy-back scheme ensures that both the NORT GS Mini and Piston Bio can be returned at end of life, with 71% and 63% of their respective components being reusable or recyclable.
Conclusion
The NORT GS Mini and Piston Bio are not just lighting solutions; they are a testament to Shoplight’s commitment to innovation, sustainability, and technical excellence. By choosing these products, retailers can illuminate their spaces with style, efficiency, and a clear conscience, knowing they are making a positive impact on the environment.
