Overview

The SCREEN floor lamp by FARO is an outdoor luminaire designed to illuminate gardens, parks and open-air spaces where stable, long-lasting and well-directed light is needed. With a height of 3.7 metres, it covers a wide area from the ground without the need for additional structures. The asymmetric 180° distribution option allows light to be directed exactly where it is needed, without wasting it on areas that do not require it.

The unit is made of aluminium and transparent polycarbonate, materials that hold up well under continuous outdoor use conditions. The IK10 impact resistance and IP65 protection rating mean this floor lamp operates without issues in rain and against occasional impacts. It is a solution designed for permanent outdoor installations where reliability matters more than anything else.

FARO is a company with a long track record in technical and decorative lighting. Its products combine functional design with quality materials, built to last under real-world conditions.

Installation and specifications

For installation, it is necessary to plan for a power outlet in the ground or an underground conduit running to the anchoring point. Fixing is done directly on the ground, so it is advisable to prepare the base in advance and ensure the terrain provides sufficient stability. It is recommended that the electrical installation be carried out by a qualified professional, especially outdoors where moisture can affect connections if they are not properly protected.

For maintenance, simply wipe the body of the floor lamp with a damp cloth when dust or dirt accumulates. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the aluminium finish or the polycarbonate diffuser. Periodically check that no water has accumulated at the base and that the anchors remain in good condition.

Design and use

The SCREEN collection was created to meet a specific need: to provide technical outdoor lighting without sacrificing a refined finish. This floor lamp is part of that line and retains all of its defining elements: aluminium body, transparent polycarbonate diffuser, IP65 protection and IK10 impact resistance.

The aluminium body provides solidity without adding excessive weight. The dark grey finish integrates well into natural environments such as gardens and parks, without drawing too much attention during the day. When night falls, the floor lamp fulfils its purpose: projecting warm, uniform light onto the surrounding ground thanks to its COB LED technology.

The 3000K colour temperature produces light that feels warm, similar to that of a traditional bulb. This type of light is more pleasant in spaces where people walk or stop to rest. It does not create the cold, clinical sensation produced by higher colour temperatures. For a private garden or a residential park, it is a choice that helps create a calm atmosphere at night.

The 180° option allows the light beam to be directed in a single direction, which is useful when the floor lamp is placed near a wall, a fence or a property boundary. Instead of illuminating equally in all directions, it concentrates the light where it is needed most. This can also reduce disturbance to nearby homes.

At 3.7 metres tall, the floor lamp reaches an elevated position that allows it to cover a reasonable area of ground without the need to install multiple light points. In a medium-sized garden, a single unit may be sufficient to illuminate a path or a walkway. In larger spaces, combining several floor lamps at regular intervals creates a continuous and visually coherent line of lighting.

The transparent polycarbonate diffuser lets light through without significantly altering its colour or distribution. There are no filters that change the colour temperature or noticeably reduce intensity. What the LED produces is what reaches the outside, with little loss along the way.

The IP65 protection ensures that neither dust nor direct water jets affect the lamp's operation. This means it can be exposed to heavy rain without compromising its safety or performance. The IK10 impact resistance adds protection against mechanical impacts, which is useful in high-traffic areas where a floor lamp may receive accidental knocks.

This luminaire does not require independent power sources: it is neither solar-powered nor rechargeable, but operates connected to the mains electricity supply. For installations where no electrical supply is available, other options should be considered. But where that infrastructure does exist, direct connection to the mains guarantees continuous operation without interruptions or dependence on the weather.

Questions and answers

What level of protection does this floor lamp offer against rain and impacts?

It has an IP65 rating, meaning it is protected against dust and against water projected from any direction. It also has IK10 impact resistance, the highest level on that scale, suitable for areas of frequent use.

Is the LED light source included or does it need to be purchased separately?

The COB LED light source is included. There is no need to purchase or install any additional components for the floor lamp to operate.

What does the 180° asymmetric lighting option mean?

It allows the light beam to be directed to one side rather than distributed in a circular pattern. It is useful when the floor lamp is installed next to a plot boundary or a wall, as it concentrates the lighting on the area that actually needs to be illuminated.
