Office lighting in Biggleswade
What we do in Biggleswade: glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Reception areas in Biggleswade often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
Local office lighting in Biggleswade
For office lighting in Biggleswade 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.
Meeting rooms are where Biggleswade offices waste most light. Presence detectors that switch off after a set time pay back quickly in rooms that sit empty for half the day.
Biggleswade sits within Bedfordshire. We work throughout the SG18 and SG19 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Everton, Shefford and Arlesey.
