Recently, Aluwave AB signed a development and supply contract for a light engine based on its LED-bearer material Alunat™. The contract value is estimated to 10 MSEK over four years and the unnamed customer is a European based multinational lighting manufacturer.
With strong requirements on technical solution and quality Aluwave AB was selected and in order to reach high light output in combination with low power consumption and long product life the properties of Alunat™ was required.
Jonas Stålhandske, CEO of Aluwave AB, said,”I am very proud to receive this trust in us and our material.” He noted that they see that their adaptable Aluwave Light Engines really helps their customers as it simplifies the product development at a low entry cos.

About Alunat™
Aluwave’s family of materials for printed circuit board products - Alunat™– is developed to solve the heat problems of modern electronics. It is based on a ceramic, instead of a polymer layer, between the copper conductors and the aluminium plate. The ceramic layer has excellent thermal conductive and electrical isolating characteristics. AlunatTM is highly suitable for high power LED applications. The heat from the LED is very efficiently transported away from the component, allowing it to operate at lower temperature compared to traditional solutions.
