Art Protection

Light. Protection. Challenges. Light is the medium through which art is brought to life, but improper illumination can also become a potential threat to cultural heritage. Research indicates that organic pigments—particularly red and yellow—are highly susceptible to fading or degradation when exposed to inappropriate lighting conditions, with significant damage occurring in just a few months. To combat this, leading museums around the world are increasingly adopting spectrally tunable LED lighting technology. Not only does this technology offer outstanding energy efficiency, but it also represents a breakthrough in precise spectral control: effectively filtering out harmful UV/IR radiation, regulating blue light levels, and delivering high CRI/R9, thereby creating a truly protective exhibition lighting environment. ↑Leading museums worldwide are gradually adopting spectrally tunable LED lighting technology to achieve a truly "protective exhibition" lighting environment.   The Science Behind Spectral Control: Why It Matters The essence of cultural heritage lighting lies in balancing visual authenticity with minimal damage—a task that depends entirely on the precise regulation of the spectral power distribution (SPD): ● CRI & R9: Pigments such as crimson red or hemp yellow require high color fidelity. To ensure that artworks display rich, vibrant colors, international museums typically require a CRI ≥ 90…
