SYLVANIA TruWave Technology Emits a Light Spectrum Similar to the Natural Light Spectrum, Providing People with a More Natural Lighting Experience

TruWave Technology is a lighting technology developed by SYLVANIA. It provides the closest possible lighting experience to natural light by mimicking the natural light spectrum. Natural light is the most common light source in daily life, and it helps regulate body clocks and improve mood and focus. 

However, in indoor environments, the amount of natural light is often low, requiring artificial lighting to provide sufficient light. Traditional artificial lighting often does not provide a spectrum similar to natural light, which can lead to problems such as visual fatigue, headaches, and loss of concentration. Read on to get a better understanding of SYLVANIA Truwave.


What Are the Advantages of Sylvania Truwave Technology

​​The LED bulbs in the SYLVANIA TruWave Technology range emit a light spectrum similar to the natural light spectrum, providing people with a more natural lighting experience. In addition, TruWave Technology series bulbs not only retain the advantages of LED lights, such as high color rendering, long life, and high energy conversion rate, but also control blue wavelengths to reduce glare and ease eye fatigue to improve readability and people’s sleep cycles.

With a 90+ CRI, objects appear more true to their original colors under artificial lighting. What’s more, TruWave Technology also saves energy. TruWave Technology series LED bulbs can convert electricity more efficiently than traditional artificial lighting, reducing energy waste and lowering business operating costs.​​


Applications of SYLVANIA Truwave Technology

1. School

In school management and planning, lighting facilities with sufficient light, high quality, low energy consumption, and sustainability can improve the learning environment while saving energy, resources, and money. While great teachers and motivated students can perform at a high level almost anywhere, a well-designed lighting system featuring Truwave technology can truly enhance performance and make education a more enjoyable and rewarding experience. 

All else being equal, lighting schemes that provide more natural light promote higher levels of academic achievement. Additionally, they promote the health of students, faculty, and staff, thereby reducing absenteeism.​

2. Office

A qualified office lighting system can help employees perform comfortably and efficiently. A typical office building houses people involved in a variety of tasks and activities such as writing and drawing, text editing, audiovisual presentations, graphics, meetings, and training. Otherwise, poor lighting can cause visual discomfort and, in some cases, a safety hazard. Too much light can also cause visual discomfort and use up more energy than needed. 

Truwave series lighting balances visibility and visual comfort, and comfort while keeping purchase and energy costs low level, thus enhancing sustainability. It’s the best choice for providing a lighting environment that energizes, increases productivity, and keeps workers at a comfortable brightness, with the flexibility to adapt to different user needs, functions, and business goals.​

3. Industry

High-performance industrial facilities are key to the stimulating productivity growth needed to stay ahead in today’s economy. Efficient, well-lit shop floors, warehouses, processes, and production areas can positively impact the work of employees and improve productivity and operational goals. In the manufacturing industry, in addition to improving the operating efficiency and productivity levels of facilities, companies also need to become greener—adopting new systems, equipment, and methods to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions of facilities. 

SYLVANIA’s Truwave technology provides the means to directly illuminate the workplace while reducing maintenance costs and reducing energy use. Simulating natural light can increase worker productivity, provide higher levels of workplace safety and lower accident rates, reduce facility operating and administrative expenses, and help employees see more clearly so they can work more effectively.
