LED strip lights are a versatile lighting solution – discreet in form, yet powerful in function. With the right placement and the right fixture, they can create atmosphere and structure, highlight details, or enhance the architecture of a room, a façade, or an urban space. Westal’s range of strip lights is designed to meet the needs of various environments – from private kitchens to public spaces, from integrated furniture solutions to façade lighting.

The Right Light in the Right Place In public spaces, strip lights can contribute to safety and orientation – for example, under park benches, in stairways, or as discreet guide lighting in corridors. On façades and at entrances, indirect light can highlight architectural lines and add character to buildings. Strip lights are also ideal for cove lighting – indirect lighting aimed at ceilings or walls – in offices, receptions, and conference rooms. |
Our strip lights are available in different lengths, color temperatures, and light outputs, making it easy to tailor the lighting to your needs. They are dimmable and can be integrated into larger lighting control systems. We also offer accessories and profiles to ensure the installation is both quick and visually appealing. Planning a renovation or a larger construction project? Then strip lights might be the detail that elevates the whole – small and discreet, but with a big impact. Browse through our products, application examples, and environment images to find the right solution for your project. And don’t hesitate to reach out if you’d like some help along the way. |

Good task lighting in the kitchen is essential for both functionality and comfort. LED strip lights mounted under wall cabinets offer a simple and stylish solution, providing even, directed light across the work surface – without taking up space or disrupting the overall design.
You can choose between recessed or surface-mounted installation depending on the layout of your kitchen and the visual expression you’re aiming for. An output of around 10 W per meter is usually sufficient to create pleasant and functional task lighting without causing glare.
Since kitchens are typically dry indoor environments, no special IP rating is required – IP20 is sufficient. However, it’s wise to consider the color temperature: 2700K gives a warm and inviting light, while 3000K or 4000K feels more neutral and clean.
The result is a lighting setup that makes kitchen tasks easier – while the strip lights become a natural part of the kitchen’s overall design.
Light strips are a discreet yet impactful way to bring life and character to facades—both in private and public settings. By placing the light close to the surface of the facade, the texture of the material and the building's lines are subtly emphasized.
In modern homes with rendered or smooth wooden facades, a light strip placed along the eaves works particularly well. It provides a soft grazing light that enhances the architecture without dominating the overall impression. This type of lighting is best suited to contemporary buildings and may sometimes feel out of place on older structures or in more traditional environments.
In public architecture, light strips work excellently as a complement to, for example, ground luminaires or projectors. Using techniques such as wall washing, the light can broadly illuminate a facade and highlight its rhythm and details—columns, recesses, and patterns—without causing glare or light pollution.
With the right choice of IP rating and profile, light strips can be easily adapted to suit the needs of any facade—whether it’s an entrance, a long wall surface, or a clearly defined eaves line.
A well-lit wardrobe makes it easier to find what you're looking for while also creating a thoughtful, elegant impression. Light strips provide even, glare-free illumination that’s perfect for both built-in wardrobes and freestanding cabinets. The right lighting can elevate the interior and give the entire room a more luxurious feel. Place the light strip along the sides, at the top, or recessed into the shelves for a seamless, integrated look.
For wardrobes with a clothing rail, we offer the Hängare profile, which combines lighting and garment storage in one. This provides both a practical and stylish solution—especially in smaller spaces where every detail matters.
Choose a low-power LED strip—wardrobes rarely require more than a soft, functional light. To create a warm and inviting atmosphere, we recommend a color temperature of 2700K or 3000K. This provides a pleasant glow that is both practical and contributes to a more exclusive overall impression. The right lighting isn’t just about seeing—it’s about experiencing.
