What we do in Cumnock: glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Many Cumnock office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
Local office lighting in Cumnock
For office lighting in Cumnock we design to about 500 lux on desks, as BS EN 12464-1 suggests, and keep glare off screens by choosing the right optics rather than simply adding more light.
We usually phase office work in Cumnock over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
We cover the whole of Cumnock, including the KA18 postcode district, and nearby places such as Mauchline, Darvel and Newmilns.
