A collection story, followed by the details

This lighting catalog template is for lighting brands and manufacturers presenting pendants, wall lights, and other fixture families to retailers, designers, and specifiers. The cover sets an editorial tone with a full-page image and a list of product families. A contents page groups those families by category and points readers to each section.

Before the products, a guide explains the technical symbols and shows the finishes used throughout the catalog. Buyers can refer back to it when comparing wattage, light output, color temperature, CRI, and other specifications.

One facing-page spread per family

Each family gets a two-page spread. A dark, image-led page introduces the collection with its name and family note. Facing it, a technical page brings the buying details together: a row of specification symbols, a dimension drawing, a color-temperature scale, finish swatches, and a table of variants. The pairing gives an atmospheric product photo room to breathe without making buyers hunt for measurements or performance data.

Your spreadsheet can hold several variants under the same family. Give each one a sku and name, then supply its dimensions, wattage, lumen, color_temp, cri, ip_rating, base, dimming, finish, and price. The width_mm, height_mm, and profile columns provide the measurements and shape for the dimension drawing. Use image for the product photo and designer when you want to credit the collection’s designer.

A price list for quick reference

The closing price list gathers variants from across the families into a compact table. Buyers can scan by family, find a product code, and check its variant, technical values, and price without flipping between spreads. A final back page closes the catalog.

The layout is set up for A4 portrait pages; the supplied sample renders at 26 pages. It suits teams that currently assemble lighting catalogs and specification sheets by hand but already keep their product details in Excel, CSV, or Google Sheets. Attach the rows and product photos to create a print-ready PDF that carries both the visual story and the buying information.

Questions

Lighting Catalog Template, answered

Can I show several sizes of the same fixture?

Yes. Add a row for each size with its own SKU and specifications, and use the same family name to group them on a family spread.

Where do buyers find technical specifications?

Each family’s technical page brings together specification symbols, a dimension drawing, a color-temperature scale, finishes, and a variants table.

Does the catalog include a consolidated price list?

Yes. A price list near the back gathers the product variants so buyers can look up codes and prices across families.

What photo should I attach?

Add a product photo filename in the image column. The layout gives family imagery a prominent, atmospheric page beside the technical details.

What page size is this template designed for?

It is set up for A4 portrait pages. The supplied sample renders at 26 pages; your page count depends on your product families and variants.
