Office lighting in Selby
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. If your Selby office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
Local office lighting in Selby
Many Selby 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 Selby 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 Selby, including the YO8 postcode district, and nearby places such as Airmyn, Wheldrake and Goole.
