The Orac Luxxus C357 coving features a neat linear profile that projects 11cm into the room, and has a 7.5cm depth. The shallow trough section pushes light upwards to reflect off the ceiling. Bright illumination comes from slimline T5 tubes, and IL light plates which feature a clever twin mounting facility. This means tubes can be overlapped, to avoid dark patches on ceilings.
Orac C357 and C358 uplighter troughs can also be used in creative ways to achieve corbel and string course details. These items are significantly less lighter and less expensive than traditional alternatives, and usually available for site work within days. Try sourcing conventional alternatives that quickly!
The beauty of our T5 light and lightplate system is that you get both bright lighting and a superb Philips DALI touch and dim facility. This system is suitable for primary lighting in a domestic or office environment. The reflected light will take away the harsh nature of direct lighting from central pendant bulbs. Interior designers may wish to specify the C357 for use in restaurants and hotel lobbies, where a pleasant ambience is required. Customers also appreciate this quality coving when creating an home cinema system. Customers wil be able to watch flat screen TV without stray lighting spoiling the image, whilst there is enough backlighting to avoid knocking over a bowl of popcorn.When using the C357 indirect light coving with standard ceiling lights one may save money by using our lighting string and low energy bulbs.
When using the C357 cornice with Orac lighting systems ensure you have at least 15cm (preferably 20cm) of space above the coving to allow space for installation of bulbs, and sufficient light dispersal. We recommend ceilings above the C357 cornice are white to allow good lighting levels in your room. The old Orac Myline brand name is still the same product but now under the Orac Luxxus brand. Each 2 metre indirect light coving profile is manufactured from lightweight polyurethane, with undercoat pre-applied to save time when installing. We recommend all lengths are stuck to the wall with FDP500 DecoFix Pro, and also screwed into place to bear the load of lightplates. All joints and mitres require Extra Fix adhesive.House proud customers may find the Plexi-Cover IL000-001 a worthwhile addition to their C357 uplighter coving mouldings. These offer two benefits, firstly keeping dust out from within the light fittings, and secondly offering a subtle light diffusion. Each IL000-001 light pack has 5 one metre plexi covers, so two packs will be enough for 10 metres of Orac C357 coving.
Home owners looking for matching wall detailing may find our SX155 skirting board a suitable contemporary addition to their room. Just like the C357 coving these products are supplied with an undercoat applied, and need a one coat matt or gloss to finish.
