Nualight, the only LED lighting company in the world that specialises exclusively in food retail displays, has developed LED lighting colour technology Vivace to bring out the natural colors in food when it is on display in supermarkets.
 
The company, based in Cork, Ireland, has been making headlines of late. Last September, for instance, it announced it had acquired Dutch LED lighting technology firm Lumoluce for nearly €11m.
 
This past March, Nualight secured a US$100m opportunity with Hussman, a global manufacturer of refrigerated display merchandisers and refrigeration systems.
 
At the time Nualight said the move would help food retailers reap energy savings of up to 40pc by switching to LED lighting.
 
Up to now, the company said that true vibrancy in reds was difficult to achieve with LED. It said this was a particular challenge for meat, mixed seafood, cheeses and patisserie displays that contain rich reds. However, it is hoping its latest technological solution will change that.
