Office lighting in Irlam

Local office lighting in Irlam
Many Irlam office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
Meeting rooms are where Irlam 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 cover the whole of Irlam, including the M44, M31 and M41 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Partington, Urmston and Sale.
