Globe lighting or baloons

The balloon light is an extremely compact design, characterized in particular by strong light without dazzle. Ideal for general lighting, indoors for any activity.

Features

The translucent white shell is highly robust and was designed to test tears. It distributes the bright light from the halogen lamp metal vapor evenly across the work area to 360 °, thus providing a uniform and secure solution for lighting.The top of the globe has been made of highly resistant synthetic fibers and is coated with a reflective aluminum layer. This is achieved by reflecting light downward, thereby maximizing the light output to ground level.The sturdy tripod made of three parts and constructed of stainless steel can be stretched to a height of 4.1 meters to provide thus optimum illumination.

Health Cabins

Regular cabins, VIP toilets, cabins for the disabled and holding tank, with fleet of trucks. All permits from the Ministry of Health of Costa Rica for the handling of this product.
