Product Lifecycle To support a more circular product lifecycle, we have developed a “common gear compartment” that is compatible with a wide range of our urban decorative luminaires. Based on a standardised base plate and internal layout, it integrates the power supply, fuses, drivers and control components in an easily accessible compartment, separate from the LED module. This compartment can be incorporated into multiple luminaire families while preserving each product’s individual design, optical performance and application. This modular architecture is currently implemented in nine products including FLEXIA, CITEA GEN3, YOA, YMERA, STYLAGE, HAPILED, KIO, ISLA and INOA, and will be extended to other products as part of our ongoing circular design strategy. Designed for Fast, Low-Impact Intervention The common gear compartment has been engineered for quick, tool-free access, enabling internal components to be removed and replaced in a matter of minutes. The platform is fully interchangeable across our compatible luminaire ranges, meaning the same electronic modules can be fitted into various housings without requiring mechanical or electrical modification. Enabling Circular Value The common gear compartment is designed to support the full circular lifecycle of our luminaires.

Lighting for a More Circular Economy

• Repair and Maintenance: separating the electronic components allows faulty or outdated components to be replaced without removing or discarding the entire luminaire. • Upgrade and Retrofit: new drivers and smart lighting components can be installed in existing luminaires to extend service life and avoid premature replacement. • Simplified Spare Parts Management: customers and service partners only need to stock one type of gear platform reducing inventory, transport costs and material waste.

The Station Tunnel is a vital road, pedestrian and cycle tunnel that passes under the railway tracks at ‘s-Hertogenbosch Central Station. It is an important route for commuters, enabling them to travel from the city centre to the west of the city without having to cross the tracks at ground level. As part of the area’s regeneration, the municipality decided to upgrade the tunnel’s lighting, as some of its electronic components had reached the end of their service life. From the outset, Johny Schellings, Public Lighting Manager for ‘s-Hertogenbosch Municipality was very clear: the city required a solution that respected both the environment and existing resources. The municipality entrusted us with implementing a new lighting solution based on two key insights: the proven durability of the original NTL luminaires, which have reliably performed for 20 years, and Schréder STUDIO’s technical expertise in developing and supplying custom retrofit LED kits perfectly tailored to existing luminaires. Working alongside the maintenance operator, Hoeflake Infra, we implemented a strategy focused on resource preservation. We designed custom LED kits that integrate into the original housings and utilise existing cabling, avoiding unnecessary manufacturing and waste. This methodical approach enabled us to deliver 204 kits that modernised the tunnel’s performance while preserving the longevity of its original design.
