Office lighting in Dudley

Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Meeting rooms are where Dudley 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.

Local office lighting in Dudley

Many Dudley office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.

For office lighting in Dudley 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.

For Dudley premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
