Office lighting in Keswick
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. For office lighting in Keswick 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 Keswick
Meeting rooms are where Keswick 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.
Offices in Keswick range from older suspended-ceiling floors with 600×600 fluorescent panels to newer exposed-soffit spaces where suspended linear LED looks and works better.
Keswick sits within Cumbria. We work throughout the CA12 postcode district and surrounding places, including Cockermouth, Lakes and Arlecdon.
