SHIFT Innovations, the product incubation division of 1LUX, has launched CLIQ, a modular lighting system the company says is designed to cut installation time and operating energy in large-scale facilities, including data centers. The company positions CLIQ as a way to remove lighting installation as a schedule bottleneck amid skilled labor shortages and aggressive delivery timelines.
CLIQ replaces traditional lighting methods with a modular, Class 2 low-voltage design intended for self-performed installation, reducing reliance on skilled labor and complex wiring, according to 1LUX. The company claims the system installs up to ten times faster than legacy lighting systems.
1LUX says traditional lighting in a data center can require thousands of labor hours and multiple installation phases. CLIQ is designed to transition from temporary to permanent lighting, which the company says eliminates redundant work and helps compress construction timelines.
In addition to build-time labor savings, 1LUX says CLIQ reduces long-term energy consumption for continuously operating facilities such as data centers. The company also says the system simplifies logistics and reduces packaging and job-site waste to improve safety, cleanliness, and site efficiency.
While 1LUX says CLIQ was designed to address data center construction constraints, it also lists warehouses, manufacturing facilities, public storage, and large-format commercial spaces as target environments.
