Light Years Ahead: SkyView by BIOS Launches in BC with Mac’s II Agencies

July 7, 2025

New Representation Agreement Announced Between Mac’s II & SkyView by BIOS

Mac’s II Agencies is proud to represent SkyView by BIOS Lighting across British Columbia. As the first agency in BC to bring this innovative brand to market, they are excited to help launch a new chapter for SkyView—a new company rooted in cutting-edge science and committed to wellness through light. This addition to Mac’s II Agencies’ lighting line card reflects their drive to deliver the latest innovations that elevates projects for consultants across the province.

SkyView is a next-generation lighting solution that delivers the benefits of natural sunlight indoors. With patented Gradient Circadian Optimization (GCO) Technology and NASA-originated research, this product was engineered to support the body’s circadian rhythm, improving mood, focus, alertness, and overall wellness. Unlike traditional lighting, SkyView spatially recreates the blue sky and warm sunlight with the industry’s highest melanopic ratio, all while maintaining energy efficiency and visual comfort.

“We are very excited to add BIOS Lighting to our product offering at Mac’s II Agencies.

With our expertise and experience, this product, with its groundbreaking technology, broadens the range of solutions we can offer to our clients across healthcare, education, commercial and residential sectors. More importantly, it brings the benefits of biologically optimized lighting to people in a real and tangible way.

Just imagine bringing the blue sky indoors into an office within a 2×2 recessed luminaire. It will enhance the aesthetics of a space, but also positively impacts how people feel, focus, and function throughout their day—boosting mood, energy and focus. SkyView transforms ordinary workspaces into environments that actively support human health and productivity.

Even something as compact as a desk lamp using SkyView technology can make a difference, brightening up a rainy day.

This is the most effective daytime circadian signal on the market, and we’re thrilled to introduce it to British Columbia.”

Jamie Capell, Lighting Specification Sales Manager at Mac’s II Agencies

SkyView is the only circadian lighting product that meets rigorous health and wellness standards, including RP-46-23, GSA P100, and WELL Building recommendations—while using 70% less energy than standard LEDs. It’s also Declare Red List Approved, supporting sustainability in design.

Mac’s II Agencies sees immense value in this collaboration, particularly in healthcare environments where circadian lighting has the potential to support recovery, improve sleep-wake cycles, and boost patient outcomes. Beyond healthcare, SkyView is equally suited for office, educational, and residential applications, where indoor wellness is a growing design imperative.
