A JOINT PRODUCT BY CABIN DENMARK AND JETLITE
Science-based lighting for the maritime world.
ABOUT
LIGHTING SHAPED BY SCIENCE.
wavelite brings a new standard of lighting to maritime environments. Our system combines durable, high-quality lighting hardware with scientifically proven lighting scenarios that support the human body’s natural rhythm. Life on board often means limited access to natural daylight and long periods spent in enclosed spaces. wavelite responds to these conditions by creating light that feels intuitive and natural - light that energizes when needed and calms when the day winds down. Developed for both guest and crew environments, wavelite creates atmospheres that promote comfort, well-being and better health.
WAVELENGTH
Light is defined by its wavelengths, which determine its color, intensity and biological effect. These parameters form the core of wavelite’s approach, enabling lighting that follows human needs and supports daily rhythms on board.
MARITIME WAVES
Maritime environments are shaped by ocean waves and continuous movement. wavelite is designed specifically for this context - durable, reliable and optimized for spaces at sea where people spend extended time indoors.
WHY WAVELITE
DEVELOPED TO IMPROVE LIFE ON BOARD.
Light plays a key role in how people feel, sleep and perform. On vessels, cruise ships and yachts with limited daylight, artificial light becomes the main time cue and strongly supports comfort, focus and recovery. wavelite translates these needs into lighting system that is easy to install and based on scientific principles. It supports well-being, improves daily routines on board and enhances the overall quality of interior spaces.
-
Health & well-being. wavelite uses jetlite lighting scenarios that help support daily rhythms, improve sleep quality, and reduce the impact of limited daylight exposure.
-
Performance. Brighter, cooler light during daytime supports alertness, focus and mental performance - helping crew and guests stay more productive and less fatigue.
-
Easy to install. Simple plug-and-play solution, fast to set up at any time, with manual control options and predefined scientifically proven scenarios for different needs.
-
Strong visual quality. Balanced light levels and a high color rendering index (CRI) improve how materials, surfaces and interiors appear, creating a high-quality visual environment.

FROM AVIATION TO LIFE AT SEA
jetlite’s lighting research comes from aviation, where supporting well-being, alertness and sleep across long flights is essential. We apply these science-based insights to lighting at sea - from cruise ships to yachts and other vessels - to help create environments that feel clearer, more balanced and easier on the body. The same principles that help passengers adjust in the air now support people during their time on board.
PRODUCT
INTELLIGENT LIGHTING
wavelite stands for high-quality maritime lighting combined with lighting scenarios that are scientifically validated. The system delivers chronobiologically-effective lighting that supports well-being, sleep quality, and performance on board. Our easiest and fastest plug-and-play solution is the Lightbar. It provides indirect, high-CRI illumination, is built for durability, and comes with tailored lighting scenarios. The Lightbar can be controlled manually on the lamp. For more complex environments, we can equip individual lighting installations with our hardware and integrate chronobiologically effective control into existing layouts.
ACTIVATION
Cool light, rich in blue wavelengths, boosts alertness by suppressing melatonin (sleep hormone). It is designed for morning hours, working periods, or whenever clarity and concentration are required.
RELAXATION
Warm light, with more red wavelengths, encourages relaxation and rest. Ideal for evening hours, relaxation zones, or winding down after long operational periods.
PARTNERSHIP
INNOVATIVE LIGHTING
AT SEA.
jetlite originally developed for aviation to reduce jet lag and enhance well-being, is now making waves in the maritime world by bringing its scientifically-proven lighting solution to yachts. The lighting, which was designed to help passengers on long-haul flights adjust to new time zones, is now being used to promote better sleep and health at sea. By understanding each individual's chronotype (inner clock),
jetlite creates personalized lighting scenarios that align with natural circadian rhythms, enhancing well-being on board.
CABIN DENMARK specializes in marine-grade quality lighting hardware solutions, crafted to withstand the harshest conditions at sea. Using premium materials, their products are not only durable but also designed to enhance the elegance of any yacht interior. The partnership between CABIN DENMARK and jetlite, allows a seamless integration of jetlite‘s scientifically-proven lighting solution into cruise ships, vessels and yachts, ensuring a perfect blend of high quality lighting, functionality, design, and science.
