Office lighting in Todmorden
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. For office lighting in Todmorden 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.
Local office lighting in Todmorden
Offices in Todmorden range from older suspended-ceiling floors with 600×600 fluorescent panels to newer exposed-soffit spaces where suspended linear LED looks and works better.
Meeting rooms are where Todmorden 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.
Our teams travel to Todmorden from across West Yorkshire. Typical nearby jobs include Hebden Royd, Rochdale and Rossendale, so we can often combine survey visits.
