Radia Lighting: Illuminated Performance Three Ways

Radia blends an elegant cove-style design with coordinated options for solar-powered and hardwired performance.

The Radia family includes three distinctive fixtures—a solar bollard, a hardwired bollard, and a hardwired pathway bollard. Each is available with Cree® LEDs in 3000K warm white or 4000K neutral white, and each is a different size to address different lighting scenarios.

As shown left to right below: Hardwired Radia Bollards have a 28.9" high x 4.4" dia. profile that’s at home in many environments. Solar-powered Radia Bollards 36.5" high x 6.8" dia. are designed to optimize solar light capture and output. Radia Pathway Bollards 11.4" high x 4.4" dia. are scaled for ground-level illumination. 

Radia features durable aluminum construction. Fixture bodies are powdercoated aluminum with a subtle faceted surface that plays with shadows and light and adds visual interest.

Cove interiors can be specified in the same powdercoat color as the body—an option that accentuates Radia’s clean, slim profiles.

By day, Radia’s simple forms don’t detract from their surroundings. By night, the illuminated coves create cascading gradients of light that brings the fixtures to life. Thoughtfully placed LEDs provide 180° light spread on the ground.

Solar-powered Radia Bollards offer easy installation without wiring. They can be used where wiring is inconvenient or not possible, and are ideal for retrofits of pre-existing built environments, rooftop applications, and settings where trenching is difficult or not possible.

Because the solar-powered bollards are self-contained, meaning that all components are contained within the fixture, everything’s ready to go: there’s no need to assemble separate solar arrays, battery enclosures and light fixtures. 

In addition, Radia solar-powered bollards predictively adapt to their surroundings. Featuring a self-learning solar lighting controller (SLC) with intelligent day/night detection, fixtures go on at dusk, off at dawn, providing reliable light output when it’s needed, without ongoing manual reprogramming.

Hardwired Radia Bollards have the same uncluttered design and LED performance as their solar-powered counterparts. The hardwired variation is ideal for settings where access to wired power already exists or site conditions don’t allow for a solar-powered bollard—for example, under dense tree cover or on the shady side of a building. 

Radia Pathway Bollards complete the mix and, like the hardwired bollards, are an elegant fit for smaller spaces like courtyards and gardens. They can be easily integrated into landscape settings and to the extent desired, blend seamlessly into an environment. They can also serve as illuminated wayfinding elements that draw attention to building entries and pathways, and/or provide guidance by dividing or defining space.

Together or on their own, Radia Bollards and Radia Pathway Bollards are an exceptional choice for bringing cohesive aesthetics and LED illumination across a property.
