It is now available in a version designed for outdoors, offering exceptional weather resistance.

It stands out for the fact that no glue was used in its assembly process, making it easy to disassemble, and each component is recyclable.
Learn more about the designer
Konstantin Grcic, renowned designer, designed the Mayday portable lamp taking inspiration from the lamps used by car mechanics. This no-frills lamp is equipped with a hook for easy attachment under the hood of a car. Grcic, a defender of "re-design", took a simple product, the construction hand lamp, and adapted it for domestic use. His goal was to update the design by adding a touch of contemporary irony, thus transforming something well-known into something unknown.
