Light Rail System

When designing lighting for a space, why not consider a light that can also solve an often overlooked issue in that space – noise. Our Rail 2 Acoustic is a 2-in-1 solution combining our Rail 2 luminaire with sound-absorbing baffles by ezoBord. It’s an architectural luminaire that doesn’t compromise on aesthetic appeal, while working harmoniously with acoustic materials to reduce the noise-levels in any space for optimal productivity.
