Outdated lighting products don’t just dim the room; they dim opportunity.
That was the case for one leading medical device manufacturer that was losing competitive bids due to its legacy halogen lighting, which failed to meet the modern healthcare standards.
As the medical industry evolves, upgrading from traditional halogen lights to advanced medical lighting solutions can significantly improve operational efficiency and clinical outcomes.
According to a study published in the Color Research and Application, environmental color and lighting are potent interrelated factors that affect the experience of mothers and their newborns during childbirth.
The study emphasizes incorporating comprehensive knowledge into the design of birth spaces to achieve positive patient outcomes.

Our client faced these lighting system challenges:
To address these challenges, Lumitex partnered closely with our customer, starting with feasibility studies to integrate their needs with our advanced LED lighting technology.
We designed this device, a high-intensity, shadow-free lighting system that improved both performance and compliance with healthcare standards.
The new design provided high-intensity illumination and flexible light sources that minimize shadows and ensure clear visibility in complex surgeries.
This process was crucial for improving surgical outcomes, as the American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE) highlighted.
During development, we implemented rapid prototyping to surpass baseline parameters in initial tests.
This real-world testing ensured that the final product exceeded expectations for both functionality and regulatory compliance.
Our experts managed every phase of the project, including design, testing and clinical trials.
With the seamless integration, we maintained regulatory standards while freeing our client to focus on their core innovations.
The new energy-efficient design and long lifespan (over 45,000 hours) reduced maintenance costs and the need for frequent bulb replacements.
Our Director of Marketing, Lindsay Jankovic, emphasized this:
"What sets Lumitex apart is our ability to create customized lighting solutions that are designed around each customer’s unique challenge. We’re not selling off-the-shelf parts; we’re working alongside engineers, clinicians and product teams to develop something new, every time. We truly become an extension of our customers’ team."
The Custom In-Ceiling Lighting System meets the requirements of healthcare environments:
Proper lighting in the operating room (OR) is crucial for making accurate decisions during critical surgeries.
According to a study published in The Surgery Journal, poor lighting can increase errors and hinder surgical performance, particularly in deep or narrow incisions.
Modern lighting systems, such as this one, ensure precision and reduce cognitive distractions in the operating room (OR), improving patient safety and clinical outcomes.
Effective medical lighting solutions provide high-intensity, adjustable illumination with superior color rendering (CRI), ensuring accurate diagnoses. These solutions offer customizable configurations, long-lasting LED technology, energy efficiency and reduced maintenance needs, supporting precision, operational efficiency and optimal patient care in healthcare settings.
