What is Tunable, Circadian Lighting?

Tunable lighting is a human-centric, circadian lighting solution. What does this mean exactly? It means your lighting system will adjust and shift its tone and colors to match what your body and mind need to function properly throughout the day and into the evening.

Our bodies have an innate circadian rhythm that follows the pattern of the sun and craves that natural lighting. If we don’t get enough of that pure sunlight, we start to feel fuzzy and sluggish. That’s why working in fluorescent lighting all day can leave you feeling unproductive or tired at odd times.

With this type of lighting in your installation, your lights will automatically adjust to the natural patterns of the sun and keep your rhythm balanced.

Benefits for Your Health

By implementing this lighting solution, you can start to see real improvements in both your physical and mental health. The ability to adjust your lighting tones and hues to match the sun’s morning and evening lighting can help you feel more relaxed, energized, and motivated when needed.

Even if you spend the whole day inside, you can still feel well-rested and sleep better at night because of your tunable lighting keeping your circadian rhythm centered. You’ll start to see these benefits in your everyday life or while you’re trying to focus on working or getting chores done.

System Features & Characteristics

So how does tunable lighting work exactly? Our body responds well to blue, cooler white lighting for productive and energized moments. This includes going about your regular routine or working on a huge project or task. Your system will adjust the lights to cooler hues to give you a boost of motivation and inspiration.

When you’re waking up in the morning or getting ready to go to sleep, you’ll instead want the same colors of a sunrise or sunset. So a warmer white lighting tone is what your system can deliver in the morning or evening. Your lights can dim to candlelight levels, creating a cozy and relaxing environment.

You’ll wake up to an atmosphere that prepares you for the day, gently optimizing your mind and body to their full potential. The same lighting will wind you down for bed and get you ready to have a good night’s sleep.
