Planar lighting meets these needs by delivering large, flat, uniform surfaces of light in a highly-efficient way while enabling full control of colors and illumination patterns.Planar lighting is ideal for applications and projects in environments where there is a lack of physical depth or space for lighting fixtures, and where uniformity and thin form factor are an advantage. The shape alone opens up endless potential for lighting designers, without compromising on optical efficiency, product form factor or volume capabilities.About OreeEstablished in 2006, Oree pioneered the LED planar light source and is currently the leading developer of LED planar lighting. Oree’s technology addresses the needs of the lighting market, enabling thin and efficient illumination of large areas. Oree’s patented technology allows general lighting and backlight manufacturers to significantly increase system efficiency and dramatically reduces the cost of LED-based systems.
