The Schréder Green Light Label, as an environmental indicator for our customers
Schréder decided to introduce a « green light » label after careful consideration of the environmental impact of our luminaires. We have established objective criteria in four different areas: energy, light pollution, materials and production. Each product is evaluated in each of its configurations such as the type of lamp, power, protector etc. A Schréder product receives the green light label if it satisfies at least 8 criteria, 6 of which are compulsory. This label acts as en environmental indicator for our customers.
| ENERGY | | |  | Energy savings A luminaire offering energy savings compared with most existing luminaires when used in the same type of application: - Public lighting: according to Schréder, when used in a standard configuration the luminaire has an energy efficiency ratio of:
| | P | | | EER = | | ≤ 0,8 W/m² / cd/m² | | | S L | | EER: Energy Efficiency Ratio P: power of lamp + electrical control gear S: surface to be lit L: average level of continuous luminance required for the particular configuration - Urban lighting: luminaire installed at ≤ 5 metres in height designed to contribute to creating a night time ambiance: DLOR (Downward Light Output Ratio: the ratio of luminaire light output below the horizontal, compared with total lamp light output) ≥ 55%
| | |  | Single arc tube Luminaire designed for use with a lamp with an arc tube diameter of ≤ 20 mm, for optimal light control | | |  | IP 66 Tightness level of optical compartment ≥ IP 66 | | |  | Lamp efficiency + Ballast Luminaire designed for use with a lamp + control gear set with output of: F: continuous luminous flux of lamp P: power consumed by the lamp + control gear assembly | | |  | Photometric adjustment Possibility of carrying out on-site photometric adjustments | | |  | Electronics integration A mechanical-thermal design to enable the incorporation of electronic components | | |  | Dimmer Provided to enable the incorporation of light intensity variation systems | | |  | Remote management Luminaire designed to incorporate a Schréder approved remote management system | | | | LIGHT POLLUTION | | |  | Limited upward flux - Public lighting: ULOR (Upward Light Output Ratio: the ratio of light output above the luminaire, compared with the output at source) < 3%
- Urban lighting that helps to create a certain ambiance when mounted at a height of ≤ 5 metres: ULOR < 10%
| | | | MATERIALS | | |  | Mercury-free Luminaire designed for use with mercury-free lamps | | |  | Less mercury Luminaire designed for use with lamps containing < 15mg of mercury | | |  | Use of sustainable or recyclable materials Use of materials identified by Schréder as being highly recyclable (aluminium, etc.) or which last a long time (glass, etc.) | | |  | Easily disassembled Luminaire components can be easily disassembled at end of life | | |  | Low weight Low weight of the luminaire (including lamp and control gear) depending on the nominal luminous flux of the lamp: - ≤ 7000 lm: ≤ 3.5kg
- ≤ 18000 lm: ≤ 7.5kg
- ≤ 57000 lm: ≤ 12kg
| | | | PRODUCTION | | |  | ISO 14001 Assembled in an ISO 14001-certified factory | | |  | Manufactured locally 80% of luminaire assembly is carried out in the country or region where it is sold | | | | |
