Innovative Lighting Design Brings Desolate Public Plaza to Life
The City of Bergamo, Italy, was looking to revamp its Piazza della Liberta. Busada supplied Eleni Petaloti, a world-class architect, with Cellulose Acetate Butyrate with an Eastman Stratus colorant to light the town square. We choose butyrate for its excellent weathering capabilities, enhanced UV stabilization, and overall beauty to house the LED lights.
The result was the reactivation of a public space that is a livelier environment and an “enlightened city square” for the people of Bergamo.
Interactive Museum Exhibit Captivates Kids
The Knock Knock Children’s Museum in Baton Rouge, La., features a unique pneumatic tube carrier display. Busada helped to create the spiraling helix, which engages guests with movement and creativity; it’s a living work of art!
With decades of experience in thermoplastic forming, extrusion, and custom bending, Busada has earned the trust of innovators across display, amusement, and lighting design. Whether it’s a museum centerpiece, an architectural feature, or illuminated installation, we thrive on collaboration — bringing clarity, structure, and motion together to turn vision into experience.

Busada is in the movies!
Busada has been making plastic tubing for more than 6 decades; but, one of our customers, Aerocom Systems, Inc., has more than eighty years of design development in pneumatic tube systems worldwide. They recently designed the pneumatic props for a summer film, “Logan Lucky,” and our tubing received a leading role. The 6″ Bends are from our line of CAB butyrate pneumatic tubing.
LED Tubing Stars in Adirondack Studios Opera
When Adirondack Studios asked for a light diffusive tube for a “fire ring,” we were told it would be used in an opera. The tubing art and display needed to be made in 16 sections, and each section needed to be light enough for the ensemble to carry on stage and position.
The fire ring was large — 26M in diameter; but “it is grand opera after all!” The tubing needed to transmit and diffuse internal LED lights while hiding the individual bulbs and maintaining a UL 94 vertical burning compliance. We suggested Eastman Chemical’s Stratus resin in a 6.5” OD tube.
The fire ring was large (to me) — 26M in diameter; but “it is grand opera after all.” The tubing needed to transmit and diffuse internal LED lights hiding the individual bulbs—all the while—maintaining a UL 94 vertical burning compliance.
