Sustainable lighting for Eat at EXPO restaurants

Tridonic equipped not only the entry portals but also other areas of Expo 2020 with innovative LED technology including “Eat at Expo”, the name given to around 200 restaurants, food trucks and food stands throughout the exhibition area. Sustainability played a special role at all these facilities because Expo 2020 was committed to concepts that were eco-friendly and saved on resources. The impact will be extended beyond the location and the six-month duration of the event. The strategy was also intended to inspire visitors to become part of the journey towards a more sustainable future.

Eat at Expo was in line with this commitment to sustainability – especially since most restaurants would remain in operation after Expo 2020. This also influenced the lighting concept. “No Grey Area”, a key Tridonic customer, had to ensure that the lighting design and materials for the restaurants met the high sustainability demands of Expo 2020. The products used had to be of the highest quality, operate extremely reliably and be backed by excellent after-sales service.

Dimmable luminaires save energy

The most important requirement for the Eat at Expo restaurants was that the luminaires should be dimmable. This meant they could create a welcoming atmosphere and also save on energy, and is also why the luminaires in the restaurants featured high-quality LCA premium DALI LED drivers from Tridonic. As a result, the lighting concept for Eat at Expo was able to easily meet the high sustainability standards of Expo 2020.
