Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Salterforth and Lancashire. Reception areas in Salterforth often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
Local office lighting in Salterforth
Offices in Salterforth range from older suspended-ceiling floors with 600×600 fluorescent panels to newer exposed-soffit spaces where suspended linear LED looks and works better.
Many Salterforth office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
Salterforth sits within Lancashire. We work throughout the BB18 and BB8 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Colne, Nelson and Thorlby.

Rules that apply in Salterforth
Approved Document L (2021 edition, with 2023 amendments) asks for new general lighting to average at least 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt, or to use the LENI method. The 2026 edition raises this to more than 105 for work under it from 24 March 2027.
In Great Britain, common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by ecodesign rules from 1 September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended on 1 February 2024.
Privately rented commercial property in England generally needs an EPC of E or better, or a registered exemption, and lighting is one of the cheaper ways to improve a rating.

They are worth it in meeting rooms, toilets, kitchens and stores, where lights are often left on. Daylight dimming along windows also saves energy in perimeter zones.
