The project

100% autonomous eco-designed clock

Within the framework of a collaboration with BODET TIME, European leader in time measurement and management, a clock powered thanks to two ASCA® solar modules was developed. The latter, also integrating a solution patented by BODET, operates without wire or battery, which limits the costs of intervention and maintenance.

The organic photovoltaic modules (OPV) ASCA®, particularly efficient in low-light environments, generate energy even in artificial lighting conditions.

 

 

 

An eco-designed clock

The combination of ASCA® solutions and a support conceived from recycled and recoverable materials from the BODET production workshops enables to limit the environmental footprint of the clock. Developed in an eco-design and circular economy approach, the solar-powered Profil 930 L analog clock brings new innovative and low-carbon time display solutions.

Testimonial

“For this project, we had very precise specifications. The great strength of ASCA, through its photovoltaic films which have the particularity and the advantage of being thin and lightweight, was to propose a customized solution for our clock.”

Anthony Boigné, Product manager, BODET TIME
