Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. We usually phase office work in Ventnor over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Local office lighting in Ventnor
Meeting rooms are where Ventnor 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.
If your Ventnor office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
Ventnor sits within the Isle of Wight. We work throughout the PO38 and PO37 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Sandown, Newport and Bembridge.
We cover Ventnor by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in the Isle of Wight, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.
