Philips and Desso Partner to Develop Light Transmissive Carpets

Philips recently entered into a new partnership with Desso to develop solutions that combine LED lighting with light transmissive carpet. Light Transmissive Carpets will further unlock the potential of LED integration into surfaces and adds an exciting dimension to interior design and space planning. The solution will transform the way people interact with information and their environment in offices, hotels, conference centers and other public buildings.

"This light transmissive carpet solution is designed to engage directly with people's senses and the eyes' natural inclination to seek out light," commented Ed Huibers, Marketing and Sales Director, at Philips Lighting. "The technology takes advantage of people's tendency to be guided by the floor when moving through and interacting with space. It brings information, direction, inspiration and safety via the carpet you walk on. This partnership of market leaders is focused on bringing meaningful innovations to the market."
