This hexagonal acoustic pendant light features a shade constructed from TriCore™ PET felt, available in two sizes with nominal diameters of 27 inches and 42 inches and a height of 8 inches. The patent-pending TriCore™ acoustic construction delivers superior sound absorption across a wide range of frequencies while maintaining eco-friendly performance. The pendant integrates a proprietary LED light engine with a white reflector, providing comfortable, indirect ambient light. It offers five selectable lumen outputs, reaching up to 2,850 lumens, making it suitable as a standalone pendant or as part of a ceiling array. In addition, unlit pendant and wall-mounted companion options are available, allowing for cohesive acoustic and visual design across a space.
The pendant is constructed from 100% polyester, containing up to 28.7% recycled PET plastic bottles, and the material meets ASTM E-84 Class A fire rating standards while being moisture resistant. Its sculptural hexagonal form contributes to visually striking interiors, creating both acoustic comfort and aesthetic interest. The fixture is particularly suited for commercial offices, higher education facilities, and hospitality environments where both visual and acoustic performance are priorities.
Performance is optimized with a proprietary LED module mounted on a robust thermal platform to ensure even illumination and reliable operation. LEDs are positioned to provide a uniform appearance and are available in 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, or 4000K color temperatures, with both 80 and 90 CRI options. LED modules are replaceable from below, and color accuracy remains within 3 SDCM. The aluminum housing has a 9.4-inch diameter and weighs no more than 14 pounds, allowing for convenient handling and installation. Routine cleaning is simple: dust and debris can be removed using a vacuum or a damp lint-free cloth without rubbing to preserve the quality of the illuminated surface.
Electrical performance includes a standard 120–277V driver with 0–10V analog dimming, supporting precise control over brightness. The pendant is compatible with integrated mini power canopy configurations for single-unit installations or shallow remote power canopies for multiple units powered by a centralized remote power system. Emergency battery options provide 10 watts for 90 minutes, supporting maximum mounting heights of up to 14.75 feet above finished floor.
Available in a variety of finishes, the shade comes standard in silver gray exterior with a white interior, while the canopy and suspension components are offered in matte black, matte white, or palladium silver. Stem lengths are field cuttable from 1 to 6 feet in one-foot increments, allowing for flexible installation in a wide range of ceiling heights. The visible stem between the shade and the light engine can be customized in matching finishes to maintain a seamless aesthetic. Factory options include top view cover plates for additional design flexibility.
Lumen maintenance for this pendant is robust, with reported L70 exceeding 72,000 hours and calculated L70 reaching 193,000 hours. L90 performance is reported at over 55,000 hours and calculated at 55,000 hours, ensuring long-term reliability in commercial or institutional settings. The pendant is UL and cUL listed for indoor dry locations. Its combination of acoustic performance, flexible lighting control, customizable aesthetics, and eco-conscious construction make it a versatile solution for contemporary interior design projects requiring both visual and auditory comfort.
