Overview

The FARO SCREEN bollard is an outdoor lamp designed to illuminate gardens, parks and open-air areas where stable, clean and well-distributed light is needed. It is installed directly in the ground and projects light upwards in 360 degrees, covering the space symmetrically, with no shadow zones or concentrated light points.

This lamp is built in aluminum and transparent polycarbonate. The materials withstand outdoor conditions well: rain, dust, impacts. The IP65 protection ensures that neither water nor small solid bodies compromise the equipment's operation. The IK10 impact resistance makes it especially suitable for high-traffic areas, active gardens or public parks.

FARO is a Spanish brand with years of experience in technical lighting. Its products combine solid materials with functional design, built to last under real outdoor conditions.

Installation and specifications

Preparation and installation. This bollard is fixed to the ground outdoors. Before installing it, verify that the chosen area has access to a 220V–240V electrical mains supply. It is not a solar or rechargeable lamp, so it requires connection to the existing installation. If you do not have experience with outdoor electrical installations, it is best to hire an electrician. Make sure the installation point is level so the lamp remains stable and in a vertical position.

Use and maintenance. Clean the lamp surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the polycarbonate or the dark grey aluminum finish. Do not handle the light source while the bollard is connected to the mains. Periodically check the condition of the cable and fixing points to make sure everything remains in good condition.

Design and use

The SCREEN collection is designed for technical outdoor lighting. Within that collection, this floor bollard stands out for its vertical format: 800 mm in height and a base of 160 x 160 mm. It is a lamp that takes up little horizontal space but has a clear presence in the environment, especially at night when it is on.

The aluminum body gives it solidity without adding weight. The transparent polycarbonate diffuser lets light through directly, without filters that reduce it. The 3000K color temperature produces a warm light, similar to that of a traditional incandescent lamp, which is pleasant for spaces where a calm atmosphere is desired: a private garden, a patio, an outdoor rest area.

The 360-degree lighting option distributes light symmetrically around the bollard. There is no side that is more illuminated than another. This is useful when it is placed in the center of a space or along a path, where it matters that the light reaches equally in all directions.

The integrated COB LED light source consumes 20 W. It is not a solar lamp or a rechargeable option: it works connected to the electrical mains, which ensures constant performance without depending on accumulated charge or the number of hours of sunshine from the previous day. In areas where lighting must be reliable night after night, that makes a difference.

The IP65 protection level means this lamp can be exposed to direct rain without problems. The IK10 resistance places it at the maximum level of protection against mechanical impacts, making it suitable for areas with pedestrian traffic or where accidental knocks are more likely. It is not a fragile decorative bollard: it is designed to withstand.

The dark grey aluminum finish integrates well into environments with vegetation, stone paving, treated wood or outdoor ceramics. It does not draw excessive attention during the day, but fulfills its function at night with clarity. If several units are installed along a path or around the perimeter of a garden, the overall result is visually neat and coherent.

This bollard is also compatible with the CASAMBI system, which allows smart management of lighting from a mobile application. This may be of interest if you already have or plan to install a light control system in your outdoor space.

For gardens with motion sensors or with lights that operate autonomously via solar energy, this bollard is not the right option, as it requires mains connection. But for those looking for stable, controlled and long-lasting outdoor lighting, this lamp meets that need directly.

Questions and answers

Does the SCREEN bollard need an electrical connection or can it work on solar power or be rechargeable?

It requires connection to the 220V–240V electrical mains. It is not a solar or rechargeable lamp. It requires installation with mains access, which ensures constant operation regardless of weather conditions.

What does IP65 protection and IK10 resistance mean?

IP65 indicates that the lamp is protected against dust and against water projected from any direction, including rain. IK10 is the maximum level of resistance to mechanical impacts, making it suitable for high-traffic or intensive-use areas.

Is the 360-degree lighting suitable for illuminating a garden path?

Yes. The 360-degree option distributes light symmetrically around the bollard, with no preferred direction. It is a practical solution for illuminating paths or garden borders where light is needed to reach equally in all directions.
