Office lighting in Falmouth

From offices to warehouses, we handle office lighting for Falmouth businesses. Every job starts with a survey and ends with testing, certification and a clear fitting schedule.

Office lighting in Falmouth

Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. For office lighting in Falmouth 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.

Local office lighting in Falmouth

Meeting rooms are where Falmouth 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.

We usually phase office work in Falmouth over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.

Falmouth sits within Cornwall. We work throughout the TR11 and TR10 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Penryn, Perranarworthal and Truro.
