Free-Standing Luminaire LAVIGO
With more than 90 locations in Germany, 26 subsidiaries in Europe, Asia and the US and 61 direct export partners worldwide, the Sto Group is represented around the globe and available for the customers on site. Today more than 5,200 people work for the company Sto. The company attaches great importance to reliability and tradition, innovative power and sustainable production, satisfied customers and motivated staff. In this same spirit, Sto has been producing and developing coating products and systems for buildings since it was founded by Fritz Stotmeister in 1955.
Designing high-quality and sustainable buildings has for many years been the aim of the company Sto SE & Co. KGaA, including the company headquarters in Stühlingen. The new reception and office building completed in August 2016 was build with small room depths and high window lintels according to zero energy standard, enabling deep lighting with daylight. The company Sto expressed the wish to have lighting solutions offering not only an optimised ratio of direct to indirect light for standard-compliant lighting but also energy-saving operation. The company also placed emphasis on installing light sources that create a feel-good atmosphere and are easy to handle. Herbert Waldmann GmbH & Co. KG impressed Sto with the LAVIGO free-standing luminaire and prevailed over several competitors.
