HEADING FOR THE COAST - THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO SEAWATER RESISTANT LUMINAIRES

The crashing waves, strong winds and salty sea are a daily reality for many people, which poses a particular challenge to the durability of your home. Especially in coastal areas, the harsh weather conditions can be unforgiving to your outdoor lighting, which is why it's crucial to choose lights that can withstand these impacts. Leading brands such as Nordlux, Paulmann and DCW have risen to the challenge and produced lamps made from particularly durable materials that can withstand the forces of nature and maintain their functionality for years. Below you can explore the different outdoor lights suitable for harsh coastal environments so you can find the perfect seawater resistant light fixture for your home!

NORDLUX

Danish Nordlux is known for their impressive range of outdoor lighting that combines aesthetics and functionality in a unique way. With a focus on materials such as brass, copper and corten steel, Nordlux creates outdoor lights that are not only beautiful but also resistant to even the harshest Nordic weather conditions. Their expertise in galvanized steel is remarkable, which is reflected in their wide range of lamps that are made to withstand the harsh conditions, especially in coastal areas.

Through advanced galvanization technology, Nordlux ensures that their outdoor lights remain durable and rust-free even after years of exposure to wind, weather and salt air. The advanced chemical process behind galvanizing creates a protective surface alloy that effectively shields the steel from rust and other harmful environmental influences. Their hot-dip galvanized lamps require minimal maintenance and over time develop a beautiful, unique patina that only enhances their aesthetic appeal. But if you want to extend the life of your Nordlux lamps, regular cleaning is recommended, especially in coastal areas to remove salt deposits.

PAULMANN

Due to the high salinity in the air, lighting fixtures in coastal areas are exposed to stronger environmental influences compared to other locations, resulting in increased corrosion of both metals and plastic materials. That's why German Paulmann uses specially formulated seawater-resistant plastic material to ensure that your outdoor luminaires remain protected against corrosion, even near the sea, and retain their beauty for a long time.

With their durable construction and custom-made Seawater Resistant plastic, Zenera Outdoor Bollard SWR and Kulma Outdoor Bollard SWR are just some of the many obvious options, perfectly designed to withstand harsh weather and wind conditions near coastal areas. With these lights and the rest of Paulmann's SWR lights, you are guaranteed long-lasting and reliable lighting in your outdoor areas - and as an added bonus, some of their variants are also equipped with Dusk Sensor, Motion Detector or made Insect Friendly for those areas where there are many insects.
