This gypsum downlight sits flush within a plaster false ceiling, creating a calm and uninterrupted ceiling finish.

The result is a discreet frameless recessed light that complements interiors such as minimalist, Japandi and contemporary.
Flexible GU10 or LED Module Choice
Choose a replaceable LED GU10 bulb for simpler future maintenance and easy colour-temperature changes. You may also use a compatible LED module with driver. The recessed opening reduces direct view of the light source and creates a more controlled appearance.
Designed for Planned False Ceiling Installations
Gypsum recessed downlight works well in living rooms, bedrooms, dining areas, kitchens and studies. Installation requires accurate cutting, plaster finishing and painting. Coordinate the fitting position before ceiling work begins. This plaster-in downlight is best installed by an experienced contractor for straight alignment and a smooth final surface.
FAQ
What is a gypsum recessed downlight, and why is it also called a trimless downlight?
A gypsum recessed downlight is a plaster-in light fitting installed inside a false ceiling. It is called a trimless downlight because its outer edges are plastered and painted together with the ceiling, leaving no visible rim after installation. Some Singapore homeowners also call it a halo gypsum downlight because the curved recessed opening can create a soft halo-like glow. The recessed design also shields the bulb from direct view, helping to reduce glare.
Why should gypsum recessed lighting be installed during false ceiling construction?
Gypsum recessed lighting should be installed while the false ceiling is being built because the fitting must be secured before plastering and painting. The contractor must plan the positions, cut accurate openings, align each fitting and plaster over the outer edges. Installing it at this stage creates a straight, smooth and truly trimless finish while avoiding unnecessary ceiling repairs later.
Do I need a contractor to remove the entire gypsum downlight fitting when replacing the GU10 bulb or LED module?
No. The plastered gypsum fitting remains inside the false ceiling. Switch off the power, then gently remove the clear acrylic retaining ring. The GU10 bulb or LED module can then be lowered through the opening for replacement. After replacing it, push the light source back into position and reinstall the retaining ring.
