Hospitality & Leisure Lighting Case Study
Platinum Lighting at the Great Mosque of Mecca
The Great Mosque of Mecca is also known as Masjid al-Haram in the Makkah Province of Saudi Arabia. Also called Holy or Haram Mosque, it was built to enclose theholiest shrine in Islam, the Kaʿbah. The Great Mosque has undergone major renovations through the years and is under the control of the King of Saudi Arabia.
During recent enhancements to the Great Mosque, Luceco supplied 3,000 energy saving, cost effective Surface Platinum luminaires with gloss reflectors. The Platinum family has become a flagship product range. The recessed Platinum is a high performance 220mm diameter downlight with an efficacy up to 130 Llm/ cW, featuring a unique swing tab design ensuring installation is quick and easy. The Surface Mount format of this luminaire, as installed at the Great Mosque of Mecca, provides an opportunity for creative lighting design using a high specification luminaire where a recessed ceiling void is not available. Platinum Surface Mount can be used as a pendant with suspension wires, or BESA fixed directly onto a solid surface.
