Office lighting in Risca
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Risca and Gwent. Reception areas in Risca often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
Local office lighting in Risca
We usually phase office work in Risca over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
For office lighting in Risca 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.
We cover the whole of Risca, including the NP11, NP10 and NP20 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Abercarn, Graig and Newport.
