Safer driving

roads were equipped with Xenon car
lights, 18% of all fatalities could be
avoided, saving 1,200 lives annually.

and emotions. It inspires, attracts, communicates, sets the
scene and enhances our experience of architectural spaces.
Combining our understanding of people’s needs, desires
and aspirations with our technological leadership, we are
able to deliver the advanced, energy-efcient products
and systems that will help us create a sustainable future.
