XAL

The power of silence A quiet environment is a basic human need. Yet we are usually exposed to a cacophony from morning to night – from the alarm clock to the buzz of conversation in modern open-plan offices. At the workplace, the quality of the room acoustics is cited as one of the most important factors for well-being. Studies have shown that the acoustics of a room influence both productivity and the general quality of interaction and health. Our goal is to create spaces where people feel relaxed, safe, and productive. This is why we have developed a product portfolio that harmoniously combines lighting and room acoustics. Acoustic lighting creates ideal light conditions and a balanced acoustic environment that enhances concentration, promotes social interaction, and creates a sense of well-being. The power of silence. Good room acoustics reduce harmful stress, promote concentration, and improve social interaction. Our highly effective acoustic elements absorb, screen, or diffuse sound, creating a noticeably pleasant acoustic environment. Choose from a wide range of acoustic products that blend in with your architecture or that you can use to actively design your space. For more than 35 years, XAL has been developing state-of-the-art luminaires. The products not only offer excellent lumen-per-watt performance and are therefore highly efficient, but also ensure ideal working conditions at computer screens (UGR ≤ 19). By adjusting the colour temperature and light intensity, they support people’s natural circadian rhythm. This promotes well-being, increases performance, and improves sleep quality. Integrated sensors automatically adjust the lighting to the room’s use and ambient brightness, thus also saving energy. Our acoustic luminaires create a sustainably quiet and harmonised work environment. The acoustic elements are made of an innovative and high-quality synthetic fleece, which is manufactured from at least 50% post-consumer recycled PET felt and precisely moulded into shape. Local production close to the site ensures short transport distances. This makes our acoustic solutions a resource-saving, environmentally friendly and sustainable solution. Unleash your creativity and we will realise your unique project. Be it innovative acoustic luminaires, room-acoustic retrofitting, or complete acoustic ceiling systems: no requirement is too specific for us to realise your customised solution for light and room acoustics. We start with a detailed initial discussion, create the optimal acoustic room plan, and develop a lighting concept with you that is both aesthetically appealing and acoustically effective. Our team will support you from the initial idea to the final implementation, ensuring that the result is exactly what you envisioned. For each product family, we carry out comprehensive acoustic measurements in a laboratory specifically certified for this purpose. We ensure that the conditions are as close to reality as possible to guarantee the best performance of our products on site. We are there for you on site – be it a new structure or acoustically retrofitting an existing one. Our experts optimise your room acoustics based on your plans and carry out a standardised calculation of the reverberation time. The targeted use of acoustic solutions allows us to create a pleasant atmosphere in every room. We are happy to advise you.
