German design award recognition
The German Design Council has named the Schott Jade Reading Light as ‘Winner 2021’ in the ‘Excellent Product Design - Aviation, Maritime and Railway’ category. It recognises Jade as a product that plays a pioneering role within the international design landscape.
Jade is the first aviation light made from glass, bringing haptic and optical aesthetics to aircraft seats.
Designed by PriestmanGoode, the innovation with an integrated ambient light features a sleek glass cover that is as intuitive to use as a smartphone – and as easy and effective to clean. Modern sensor technology allows passengers to adjust light position and brightness by swiping.
The light can be printed with any decor for unlimited design options.
As a specialty glass and lighting expert, Schott brings the advantages of glass to aviation interior lighting with a stunning, yet safe and aviation compliant product that is CDR-ready. The light can be certified for all relevant aviation and OEM requirements.
