KANTI 220x220 18W Square LED Downlight - White

The KANTI is a square LED downlight that draws 18W and pushes out 1260 lumens of 4000K cool white light through a wide 110 degree beam, giving an even, open spread rather than a tight spot. Running on 220 to 240V mains AC, it sits flush in the ceiling for a clean ceiling line. Buyers shopping in the US will know this style as a recessed can light, and the square aperture suits modern indoor schemes where a softer, more diffuse fill is wanted over a punchy beam.

Each fitting covers around 4 m² at general lighting levels, so a small group works well across kitchens, hallways, landings and home offices where steady, glare-free light matters. The 110 degree beam means light reaches into corners and across worktops without leaving dark gaps, and the 4000K tone keeps colours crisp and neutral for everyday tasks. Plan the layout around ceiling height and room shape, spacing fittings so the pools of light overlap slightly for a balanced finish. As an IP20 fitting it is rated for dry indoor rooms only, so keep it clear of bathrooms, porches and any damp or outdoor location.

Built from aluminium alloy with a white finish, the 215 × 215 × 35 mm square body has a low 35mm depth that keeps it tidy within the ceiling void. It is not dimmable, so pair it with a standard switched circuit rather than a dimmer, and it carries a colour rendering figure of Ra 80 for dependable everyday colour. The integrated LED is rated for 15,000 hours of use, and at 544 g it is light enough for straightforward ceiling installation. The KANTI is part of a wider range of square downlights, so matching sizes and wattages are available to suit different rooms.

Is the KANTI downlight dimmable?

No, this version is not dimmable, so it should be wired to a standard switched lighting circuit rather than a dimmer. Fitting it to a dimmer could cause flicker or shorten the life of the LED. If dimming is needed, choose a dimmable fitting instead.

What size cut-out does it need?

The fitting has an overall square trim of 215 × 215 mm, which sits over the opening, so the cut-out itself is the recessed aperture behind that trim and should be confirmed against the supplied template. Treat the trim diameter and the cut-out as two separate figures when planning. Always check the installation sheet before cutting the ceiling.

How many do I need for a room?

Each KANTI gives 1260 lumens and covers around 4 m² at general lighting levels, so a typical kitchen or hallway often uses several spaced evenly across the ceiling. Aim to overlap the pools of light slightly so there are no dark gaps. Ceiling height and room layout will fine-tune the final count.

How do I clean the downlight?

Switch off the power and let the fitting cool, then wipe the white face and lens with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid solvents or abrasive cleaners, which can mark the aluminium finish. A gentle wipe now and then keeps the light output looking bright.
