Select classical outdoor luminaires customized for local illumination requirements across Paris neighborhoods and public avenues.
Paris—long celebrated as "La Ville Lumière" (The City of Light)—presents a unique challenge to modern lighting designers. As the city rolls out its comprehensive municipal ecological and energetic transition frameworks, balancing carbon footprint reductions with architectural conservation has become a top priority. Moving to high-performance LED street lighting and bollard lighting solutions requires conforming to the strict directives of the Architectes des Bâtiments de France (ABF), ensuring any intervention maintains the aesthetic values of Haussmannian facades, historical monuments, and cobbled streets.
Austar Lighting Co., Ltd. serves as an expert manufacturer bridging this gap. By combining Italian designer aesthetics with advanced Chinese die-casting technology and electronic assembly, we produce classical-style lanterns, decorative post tops, and vandal-resistant urban bollards that align with European regulations (ENEC, CE, LVD) while satisfying the specific luminescent metrics of French street lighting codes (NF EN 13201).
For over two decades, Austar Lighting Co., Ltd. has delivered premium OEM/ODM solutions to top-tier commercial and public sector projects across 55 countries and regions.
Operating a specialized manufacturing facility in Ningbo, China, Austar Lighting utilizes heavy die-casting machinery (ranging from 300T to 1000T capacity), a fully automated powder coat spraying line, three assembly lines, and two advanced LED driver-load aging testing chambers. Our collaborative R&D efforts with Italian lighting designers allow us to develop product architectures featuring optimal thermal management pathways, highly efficient drivers, and customizable optical distributions. All finished products undergo strict quality checks aligned with ISO9001 and ISO14001 guidelines.
In response to the current European energy security mandates and Paris’s local "Plan Climat" goals, the city is actively replacing outdated gas and incandescent lighting systems. However, this transition is bound by distinct challenges:
To protect local biodiversity (preventing disruptions in bird flight and insect behavior along the Seine), modern Parisian ordinances mandate Warm White CCTs (often 2200K to 3000K) and restrict blue-light emission spectral peaks. Our LEDs are customized to meet these warm CCT profiles with low color deviation.
Decrees against light pollution restrict upward light ratios. Classical lanterns must look historically accurate externally while utilizing precision internal optical cutoffs. By integrating localized optical designs, our lights achieve zero upward light emission.
Public areas require robust protection against impacts and graffiti. Austar's classical luminaires and bollards feature high-impact structural strength (IK09/IK10 ratings) and anti-corrosion, double-coated surfaces designed to resist local environmental pressures.
