CARSON, Calif., August 19, 2025 – DMF Lighting, a leading architectural lighting manufacturer of premium modular LED downlighting systems, today announced the launch of a collection of sleek Decorative Pendants with Shades. The newest additions to the company’s 3-inch aperture X Series and 4-inch aperture M Series cylinder collections include 15 performance decorative pendants offered in Narrow, Medium and Wide shade distributions and in multiple lengths, providing the same high-output execution as all the company’s cylinders – up to 3000 lumens.
“Our new small aperture 3-inch and 4-inch pendants add a decorative layer of light to any space with three distinctive shade designs that complement each other, giving designers distinctive solutions for architecturally demanding indoor and outdoor spaces,” said Ken Czech, vice president of new product development, DMF Lighting. “We also included a shadowless uplight option allowing for direct and indirect lighting from a single pendant.”
The pendants feature concealed hardware, allowing the high-quality die-cast aluminum shades to seamlessly integrate into the pendant, resulting in a sleek and symmetrical aesthetic.
The collection of 15 pendants includes three shade diameters and multiple lengths. The 3-inch shade diameters are 5.06 inches (Narrow), 7.76 inches (Medium), and 10.21 inches (Wide) and the nominal lengths of the 6 products range from 11 inches to 15 ½ inches. The 4-inch shade diameters are 6.14 inches (Narrow), 9.53 inches (Medium), and 12.51 inches (Wide). The total nominal lengths of the 9 pendants range from 9.5 inches to 20 inches.
Uniquely, the decorative pendants feature embedded drivers within the pendant, allowing for dimming down to 0.1%, while eliminating the need to locate any components above the canopy for easy serviceability with below ceiling access. This is ideal for open ceilings or shallow plenums installations or any application where saving space is a priority.
As with all DMF products, the modular design features tool-less, field-changeable optics for the ultimate in flexibility and onsite adjustments. The beam spread options include Narrow Spot (20°), Spot (30°), Flood (40°) and Wide Flood (50°) for the X Series 3-inch pendants and Narrow Spot (15°), Spot (25°), Flood (40°), Wide Flood (60°), and General (90°+) for the M Series 4-inch pendants.
A full range of color temperatures include 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, Warm Dim (3000K–1800K), and Tunable White (4000K–1800K and 6500K–2700K). The company will be offering 2400K in October this year as well. Lumen outputs range from 750 to 1500 lumens (3-inch pendants) and 750 to 3000 lumens (4-inch pendants).
The pendants feature field-cuttable Cord or Stem mounting in standard lengths of 24 inches or 48 inches or custom up to 156 inches (Cord) or 96 inches (Stem). Pendant finishes include White or Black.
Featuring a sustainable design, the pendants are ENERGY STAR® and Title 24 JA8 compliant, Dark Sky Approved and Declare Listed. The products are suitable for Damp Locations. At end of life, all components are 90% recyclable.
