The Crystal excels in versatility, combining technical efficiency, an attractive design, and user-friendly features.
A Globally Acclaimed Event Industry Luminaire
Available in various sizes, the crystalline Airstar balloon incorporates translucent fabric and can accommodate halogen, metal halide, or LED lamps. Although the modern LED version dominates due to its high energy efficiency and broad control options, all variants have found their place in the event industry.

The Crystal boasts several notable features:

The Crystal's adaptability allows it to cater to a wide range of applications, from trade fair highlights to outdoor stage lighting. It is also extensively used within film and television productions, particularly for night scenes or interiors devoid of natural light sources, resulting in natural-looking scenes without harsh shadows.
Airstar's light balloons are a mainstay in the film industry, having featured in iconic productions such as "Titanic" and "Fight Club."
Energy Efficiency and Advanced LED Technology
The Crystal's LED-based models consume significantly less power compared to traditional light sources while still providing a high light output.
