The new ISO/CIE 8995-1:2025 standard, “Light and lighting — Lighting of workplaces — Part 1: Indoor,” underscores the importance of high-quality lighting in workspaces. In addition to artificial lighting, the strategic use of daylight is also becoming a greater focus in modern architecture, lighting design, and sustainable building concepts.
For employers, property managers, architects, and building owners, the standard provides an important technical foundation for taking a holistic approach to lighting, visual comfort, energy efficiency, and the quality of the environment in office and commercial buildings.
For over 25 years, Heliobus® has been developing innovative daylighting solutions for buildings where natural light is limited—such as basements, interior workspaces, enclosed areas, or densely built-up urban environments.
With the Spiegelschacht® system, Light Pipe, Light Guide and walk-on skylights such as Glassfloor®, Heliobus® offers solutions for directing daylight precisely into challenging areas of a building. This creates brighter, more pleasant, and more functional spaces with the effect of natural light.
In modern work environments in particular, natural light can make a significant contribution to the quality of a space. It enhances the atmosphere, promotes well-being, and can reduce the need for artificial lighting. For sustainable construction and renovation projects, intelligent daylight management thus becomes a key planning consideration.
