The Tank

When old meets new. Lighting Australia’s latest creation.

June 15th, 2011

A classic twist to an old industrial favorite, acetylene tank tops have taken the form of industrial lighting. Removed from their original use, but still performing an industrial task, these re-purposed and eco-friendly tops are sure to add a “green” look your project. Supplied with efficient LED lamps really adds the new to the old.

The Tank is one of the first products to be released from Lighting Options Australia’s quirky vintage lighting range.
