IP44 Recessed LED Downlight
The IP44 recessed LED downlight is designed for commercial interiors where moisture resistance and consistent light output are required. Available in five power levels from 7W to 40W, each model delivers 90 lumens per watt with a system lumen output ranging from 630 to 3600 lumens. The fixture uses an Osram LED chip with CRI above 80 and a Lifud driver, ensuring stable performance. The housing is diecast aluminium with a white or silver reflector, and the IP44 rating allows installation in areas with light splash exposure such as kitchens, bathrooms, and covered outdoor spaces. Beam angle is fixed at 90 degrees across all models, and the cut-out size matches the fixture diameter for flush installation. The downlight is available in 3000K, 4000K and 6000K colour temperatures. UGR is below 19, reducing glare in visual environments.
Ask for the IES file or a Dialux calculation with your enquiry.

- Villas and residential commercial spaces with integrated lighting design
What Goes Wrong Without It
- Halogen downlights that fail in damp environments due to lack of IP rating
- Low-CRI LEDs that make skin tones and product colours appear unnatural
- High-UGR lighting that causes visual discomfort in open-plan spaces
- Inconsistent lumen output from low-efficiency fixtures requiring more units
- Cheap drivers that cause flicker or early failure in enclosed ceiling voids
- Fittings that cannot be installed in areas with light moisture exposure
How It Is Built
- IP44 rating for protection against water splashes and dust ingress

How It Compares With The Alternatives
| Standard recessed downlight without IP rating | Suitable for dry indoor spaces only; not for kitchens, bathrooms or covered outdoor areas |
|---|---|
| Low-efficiency downlight at 60lm/w | Requires more units to achieve same lumen output, increasing installation and energy cost |
| LED downlight with CRI below 80 | Makes product colours appear dull or inaccurate in retail and hospitality settings |
| Recessed fixture with UGR above 22 | Causes visual discomfort and glare in open-plan or high-traffic zones |
Before You Order And Before You Install
- Confirm the ceiling cavity depth is sufficient for the fixture depth before installation
- Use the correct cut-out size to ensure a flush fit and avoid gaps
- Select 3000K for warm ambient spaces, 4000K for neutral, 6000K for cool and bright
- Ensure the electrical circuit supports the total power draw of multiple fixtures
- Do not install in fully exposed outdoor areas where water can directly impact the fixture
- Verify the IP44 rating is sufficient for the intended environment
