Astro Wall Lights, Bathroom Fixtures, Reading & Recessed Lighting
Wall Lights
Wall lighting is Astro’s signature — a deep range of interior wall lights, from up-down sconces to adjustable spots, in clean forms and quality finishes. Astro wall lights suit hallways, living rooms, bedrooms, and stairwells where a well-made, understated fixture matters.
Bathroom Lighting
Astro is especially known for bathroom-rated fixtures — IP-rated wall lights, mirror lights, and ceiling fixtures engineered for the moisture of a bathroom environment. Matching the fixture’s IP rating to the bathroom zone it’s installed in is essential; Astro publishes ratings for its bathroom range.
Reading & Swing-Arm Lights
Astro reading lights — including surface-mounted and swing-arm wall models — deliver focused, adjustable task light for bedsides and reading corners, combining precise function with the brand’s minimal design language.
Recessed Lighting & Controls
Astro also offers recessed fixtures and lighting-control accessories, including LED drivers, letting you complete an installation with components engineered to work together.
Astro Lighting FAQs
What is Astro Lighting known for?
Astro Lighting is a British brand known for well-engineered wall lights, bathroom fixtures, and reading lights with a minimalist aesthetic. The brand is particularly respected for the quality and range of its bathroom-rated (IP-rated) wall and ceiling lighting, and for adjustable wall and swing-arm fixtures.
Are Astro bathroom lights suitable for wet areas?
Astro makes a wide range of bathroom-rated fixtures with IP ratings appropriate to different bathroom zones. The right fixture depends on where it’s installed — immediately around a shower or tub requires a higher IP rating than an area farther from water. Check the specific fixture’s IP rating on its spec sheet and match it to your bathroom zone.
What are bathroom lighting zones?
Bathroom wiring standards divide the room into zones by proximity to water. Zone 1 (inside/above a shower or tub) and Zone 2 (within about 0.6 m of it) require fixtures with suitable IP ratings — commonly IP44 or higher for Zone 2 and higher still for Zone 1 — while areas outside the zones have more flexibility. Always confirm the fixture’s rating suits its intended zone, and have bathroom fixtures installed by a qualified electrician.
Are Astro Lighting fixtures dimmable?
Many Astro fixtures are dimmable, depending on the model and its bulb or integrated LED. For fixtures taking a replaceable bulb, use a dimmable bulb with a compatible LED-rated dimmer. For integrated-LED models, check the spec sheet for the dimming method. Astro also offers compatible lighting-control accessories.
Do Astro fixtures come with bulbs?
This varies by fixture — some Astro fixtures include a bulb or use an integrated LED, while others require a separately purchased bulb in a specified type and base. The product spec sheet lists the bulb requirement or confirms an integrated LED for each fixture.
