Lighting tile an exclusive introduction
RS Components, the distributor of electronic, electro-mechanical and industrial products, today announced the launch of the new Osram Orbeos OLED (Organic LED) lighting tile. Osram Opto Semiconductors has appointed RS to be the exclusive catalogue distributor for the Orbeos across Europe and Asia, and the product is now available on RS websites.
The Orbeos is a new lighting tile ideally suited to designer luminaires, decorative lighting and mood lighting. Extremely thin and flat, with very low heat dissipation, OLEDs can be embedded into most materials with ease. With an instant on/off function, plus high quality of light, this ambient light can become an integral part of objects and architecture.
Commenting on the RS launch of Orbeos for Osram Opto Semiconductors Stephan Kreusel, director of distribution EMEA said: "Osram is pleased to be furthering its partnership with RS. Fuelled by the jointly driven ‘OS Lightshop‘, which provides immediate access for customers to the whole OS product portfolio, RS' service and support helps the establishment of Osram technologies in new applications being developed by electronic design engineers."
For RS, Glenn Jarrett, head of electronics marketing said: "RS is delighted to be selected as the preferred catalogue distributor for the Orbeos OLED. We are committed to bringing our customers the latest technologies first and this agreement gives customers immediate access to leading edge OLED technology from a market-leading manufacturer."
The Osram Orbeos OLED is available now from RS, and can be found online at rswww.com/electronics. Customers can link straight into the Osram Opto Semiconductors range and supporting technical information, then select and order direct from stock.
