Frankfurt Airport
Short recap
The modernization of the priority areas of Terminal 1 has been completed. One of Fraport AG’s objectives was to make the entire area look bright and friendly with modern lighting, which was successfully achieved with the energy-efficient luminaires from LMT. The extensive modernization of the arrivals level began at Easter 2015 and was budgeted at 36 million euros.

Applied products
LED LIGHTING TUBES
- rhomboid shaped profile and chamfered ends
- 2 involute curves at each of the entrances
- integrated survaillance cameras, information lights for escape routes and flashlights
- The light colour of all components is circadianely controllable , e.g. during night time it is set to a warm white hue, while it turns to a cold white during daytime. It is also possible to adjust it to the natural daylight progress.
LIGHTING TUBE NEXT TO FACADE WITH THREE INTEGRATED AN CONTINUOS LIGHT COMPONENTES
- facade lighting: LED-Wallwasher similar to wallwasher type SLOPE-O
- direct sidewalk illumination: LED luminaires type VARYO, with asymmetrical light distribution
- ceiling illumination: LED luminaires with asymmetrical reflectors
YECTO 1.R LED UPLIGHTS FOR ACCENTUATED ILLUMINATION OF THE COLUMNS
- 22 columns, each with 16 YECTO 1.R uplights in a cylindrical base housing of stainless steel
- YECTO 1.R uplights with asymmetrical LED inserts for colour accentuated lighting
All luminaires have an IP 65 rating and are controlled by DMX.
LIGHTING TUBE ALONG THE OUTER SIDE OF THE DRIVEWAY CONTAINS TWO LIGHT COMPONENTS
- direct sidewalk illumination: LED lluminaires type VARYO, with asymmetrical light distribution
- ceiling illumination: LED luminaires with asymmetrical reflectors
