Office lighting in Uttoxeter
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Many Uttoxeter office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
Local office lighting in Uttoxeter
For office lighting in Uttoxeter 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 Uttoxeter 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.
Uttoxeter sits within Staffordshire. We work throughout the ST14 postcode district and surrounding places, including Cheadle, Osmaston and Forsbrook.
