Delta Light
Delta Light is a Belgian family company that makes architectural lighting: downlights, track systems, wall lights and outdoor fixtures, plus a few decorative pendants. Much of it is recessed or trimless, so the fixture stays quiet and the light does the work. We carry the full Delta Light range in Ottawa, and you can see several pieces working in our showroom: on a track, in the ceiling and on the wall.

From a hi-fi shop to architectural lighting
Delta Light says it began in Roeselare, Belgium, as a hi-fi store supplying sound systems. When the disco era sent nightclubs looking for more light, the focus moved from sound to lighting, and Paul Ameloot founded the company in 1989. His sons Peter and Jan run it today, and the headquarters includes its own testing and certification laboratories.
A track you can see working
Recessed and track lighting is hard to judge from a photograph, so we installed a working example. A Shiftline track in our showroom carries five different heads: an Obin spotlight, a Spy 39 framing projector, a Spy 52 wall washer, a Dot.Com wall washer and a slim Needle. The heads click into the magnetic track and can be moved later without tools, so you can compare what each one does, side by side.
Engineering you don't see
Much of Delta Light’s thinking is hidden. Obin turns 360° and tilts 45° on a patented rotation system with no separate hinge. Nime has an opening just 10 mm across, made for picking out one object with light. Boxy sets its LED deep inside the housing to cut glare, and Entero, installed trimless in our showroom ceiling, is a family of recessed downlights that can carry one design from the kitchen to the garden.
A few pieces meant to be seen
Some Delta Light pieces are decorative. Soiree wraps a milky glass sphere or a bare bulb in concentric rings, so the pattern changes as you walk around it. Gibbo‘s hand-blown globe sits on a base set at an angle, so it looks as if it’s about to roll away, and Montur holds its light inside an aluminum frame with no welded seams.
