Lets ace it: chane isnt somethin that happens spontaneousl. Ater all, we didnt just wake up one da and
decide to revolutionize the dalihtin industr. Truth be told, chanin the wa people use dalihtin has
simpl been the result o our passion to challene conventional thinkin and nd a better wa to brin natural
sunliht to virtuall ever space.
When we started Solatube International, Inc., we challened ourselves to nd an aordable wa to brin
daliht into dark spaces where natural liht had rarel been an option. Our oriinal desins were revolutionar
and earned the praise o the media and the loalt o product owners all over the world.
One thin is clear. Our products are not sklihts. The are hih-perormance dalihtin sstems that use
advanced optics to sinicantl improve the wa daliht is harnessed. In a quest to tell others about this
antastic new invention, the market needed a name. Thus, the term Tubular Dalihtin Device was born.
Over the ears, we continued to innovate, addin optical technolo throuhout the sstem to capture more
sunliht on the roo, transer more sunliht throuh the tubin and eectivel diuse the liht in the buildin
interior. Once ou see Solatube Dalihtin Sstems, oull understand. The are remarkable.
Toda, architects and desiners are adoptin our Dalihtin Sstems to solve some o their touhest
sustainable desin challenes. While we alwa s knew that nothin could be more sustainable than interatin
natural daliht into a space, we are continuall inspired when we see new and excitin desins usin our
Dalihtin Sstems. Read on and discover the man opportunities or natural lihtin.

Redefne HarvestingTraditional daliht harvestin has its issues too much liht and heat sometimes and not enouh liht other
times. Problem solved. Solatube Dalihtin Sstems that eature Rabender 3000 Technolo use a series
o resnel lenses to harvest appropriate amounts o sunliht based upon the incidence anles o daliht.
Rabender 3000 Technolo delivers an Eective Daliht Capture Surace (EDCS) that is nearl double that
o a clear dome o the same diameter.
Harvest Low-Angled DaylightThis lens captures low-anled mornin and
aternoon sunliht and redirects it into the
tube to reatl extend our da. In the winter,
Rabender 3000 Technolo captures not
onl low-anled sunliht on the horizon, but
also redirects diused liht rom the sk vault
deliverin vastl hiher liht levels.
Superior Visual ComortNot onl does this lens help redirect low-anled liht, it also works to
temper lints b mixin liht in the optical tubin. This provides that livel
sunliht ouve come to expect rom a Solatube Dalihtin Sstem with
even more visual comort.
Reject High Intensity SunlightThere is such a thin as too much o a ood thin, and summer mid-da
sun is a reat example. When the sun is hih in the sk vault, there is
simpl too much sunliht and heat. This lens screens the over-powerin
and punishin mid-da sun and onl allows comortable daliht into
the optical tube. The result is a staerin reduction in solar heat ain
and a avorable reduction in bothersome liht intensit or improved
output consistenc throuhout the da and over the course o the ear.
