Office lighting in Rhayader
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. For office lighting in Rhayader 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.

Meeting rooms are where Rhayader 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 usually phase office work in Rhayader over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Rhayader sits within Powys. We work throughout the LD6 postcode district and surrounding places, including Llandrindod Wells, Llanidloes and Duhonw.
