Live event and brand experience company Freeman has made a major investment in Ayrton Ghibli LED profile spot luminaires. Almost immediately following the purchase, the Ghibli fixtures were used to light booths and corporate events at CES 2020 in the Las Vegas Conference Center.
Ayrton is distributed exclusively in North America by ACT Lighting. Like many of ACT Lighting’s customers, Freeman needed LED profiles that suited myriad environments. To highlight its products, ACT Lighting staged a shootout pitting its Ghibli units against other competitive LED products for Freeman designers at the Dallas headquarters. “We spent a year looking for the best and newest technology to offer our clients,” said John Leonard, National Director of Lighting Services at Freeman. “These lights fit all our parameters: size, output, power consumption, and the best feature set for our needs. Witnessing the benefits up close made the decision easy.”
Freeman lighting designers also liked Ghibli’s second frost wheel, “which allows us to easily use the light in wash applications,” he pointed out. “We can get many uses from the same fixture.”
Within three days of Freeman receiving its first shipment, the fixtures were dispatched to light a number of booths at CES 2020 where Freeman is an established partner. Freeman chose the lights to showcase booths and corporate events across multiple venues in Las Vegas.
“We’ve heard nothing but good things about the fixtures from our designers, and our clients have been pleased with the output. We hope to increase our quantity of Ghibli units in the coming years as they become a staple for many of our future shows.
