Office lighting in Bargoed
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Bargoed and Gwent. Many Bargoed 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 Bargoed
If your Bargoed office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
For office lighting in Bargoed 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.
Bargoed sits within Gwent. We work throughout the CF81, NP24 and NP12 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Gelligaer, Treharris and Tredegar.
