Working together to achieve the highest standards
RELUX supports Swiss professional triathletes Sven Altermatt and Salomé Hegi-Altermatt. Two athletes, one professional team and a philosophy that aligns perfectly with RELUX: precision, technology, endurance and strong partnerships.
Together towards a world record!

in preparation for the Challenge Sir Bani Yas.
Achievement does not happen by chance
Triathlon demands endurance, discipline and consistent effort. Many hours in the water, on the bike and running. Added to this are travel, elevation gain, interval training, equipment testing and recovery.
This commitment is what connects Sven and Salomé with RELUX. In elite sport, just as in professional lighting design, precision, quality and technical depth are paramount. The key is to reliably solve complex tasks and achieve strong results under demanding conditions.
A special connection was forged during the time trial on the F1 circuit in Abu Dhabi. The lighting for this circuit was designed using RELUX software.
Not just in triathlon – technology as a performance factor
The film about Sven and Salomé shows what lies behind sporting success: daily training, clear routines and consistent hard work.
Success is built long before the day of the competition. Every session counts – in the water, on the bike, while running and during recovery.
This mindset is what Sven and Salomé share with RELUX: professional lighting design also requires preparation, precision and accurate calculations.
The film "Trail Tales: Autumn Edition" has won numerous international awards.
