Gantri and Ammunition developed Helia as a wireless lighting platform built around interchangeable internal components and rechargeable portability. The system combines a battery module, touch-sensitive controls, customizable LED components, and a stainless steel charging puck that supports multiple lamp formats across the collection. Helia currently powers the Drift, Pier, and Eave lighting series, with Gantri positioning the platform as a scalable system for future third-party lighting designs.
The lamps detach from polished charging bases for portable use throughout interior and outdoor spaces while maintaining a fixed docking orientation during charging. Gantri stated that the wireless lights operate for more than 10 hours per charge and are being developed for future Matter smart home compatibility. The collection also incorporates Gantri’s digitally manufactured plant-based polymer construction alongside modular charging trays intended for hospitality environments including restaurants and hotels.
