Chromlech Joins White Light FamilyEntertainment lighting specialist White Light announces its appointment as UK distributor for Chromlech, the specialist manufacturer of lighting products including the Gleamer low-voltage dimmer. Founded in 2004 and based in France, Chromlech was created by lighting technicians and engineers with the aim to "design innovative lighting systems for big events and the entertainment industry." The company has attracted much attention for the Gleamer, a nine-channel dimmer pack designed specifically to control low-voltage (6-28V) loads, including ACL "Aero" lamps. The pack features nine dimmers to allow it to partner with the classic Svoboda light curtain, giving lighting designers individual control of each lamp in the fixture. Dimmers can also be coupled if a lower number of higher powered units are to be used. Gleamer solves a very specific problem, which previously required series wiring or the use of transformers; its achievement has been recognized by lighting professionals, who have presented the product with a PLASA Award for Innovation, an Etoiles du SIEL award and, most recently, a Live Design Product of the Year award. Lighting designers have also been attracted to Chromlech's Jarag range of modular, arrayable lighting fixtures that use individually controllable tungsten lamps to give a traditional look and feel that stands out dramatically from the now more common LED array fixtures. The fixtures themselves are complemented by a range of rigging accessories that makes just about any configuration of fixtures -- straight lines, angled lines or grids -- possible. "We are delighted to welcome Chromlech as a member of the White Light Family of products," comments White Light's sales director, Peter Threadgold. "Their products fill very particular niches -- but they fill them very well, offering elegant, beautifully engineered solutions to problems that were previously tricky to deal with. We have Gleamer and Jarag at White Light now; anyone interested in a demonstration should get in touch with the Sales team at White Light." See White Light at PLASA Focus: Nashville, July 11-12.
