When the light from traditional windows does not reach all the way in, the GK-Parans natural sunlight system collector with sunlight luminaires spreads the natural light in an inspiring way in the office environment at Kastrup Airport in Denmark.

CHALLENGE

Like many other airports around the world, Kastrup’s airport is expanding. As a result, some of the areas at the airport no longer have daylight via windows.

SOLUTION

Instead, the premises now get natural light via the GK-Parans natural sunlight system collector with sunlight luminaires. The premises, where for example Danske Bank and the Global Blues exchange office, are located, have gained good levels of natural light. The GK-Parans natural sunlight is led three floors down from the roof top and spread through the sunlight luminaires Point Light side by side with regular artificial lighting.

For the GK-Parans natural sunlight system to be installed at the airport, approval of the system was required in a variety of respects, as issued by the Danish Civil Aviation Administration. For example, the Authority has ensured that the collectors of the system located on the roof of the building do not reflect the light which could cause a glare hazard to the pilots.
