KYIV, UKRAINE, Jun 28, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) —
Originally built in 1923, the Olympic Stadium in the Ukrainian
capital, Kyiv, underwent extensive renovation works based on a design
by the German architects Gerkan, Marg und Partners (GMP) to host the
championship. The stadium is welcoming over 66,000 visitors for
several games including the final on 1st July.

After the fantastic experience of the World Cup 2010, the Schreder
teams in Ukraine and South Africa worked in close collaboration with
the architects and the German lighting design office, Conceptlicht,
to provide lighting for most of the public areas in this spectacular
stadium.

Just over 1,200 Schreder Cubo luminaires, equipped with traditional
light sources and designed to meet the specific lighting requirements
of Conceptlicht, were installed to light the main entrance hall, VIP
and spectator areas.

Over 1968.50 feet of the Schreder LEDbeam, which illuminates the
famous Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban, South Africa, were installed
to illuminate the upper ring of the public seating area. These
luminaires are controlled by a DALI system to provide dynamic effects
during the event.

The most spectacular lighting has been achieved by 640 specially
designed Schreder luminaires which illuminate the magnificent roof of
the stadium, creating a striking feature in the landscape. These
luminaires also have a DALI color variation system so that they can
be dimmed according to the requirements, during the matches.

Schreder also provided the lighting for the entrance to the National
Stadium in Warsaw which hosted the opening match. More than 280
Schreder Tubulus Maxi luminaires were installed to light the access
and surrounding areas.
