Local office lighting in Kidderminster
Many Kidderminster 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 Kidderminster 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.
We cover the whole of Kidderminster, including the DY11, DY10 and DY12 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Upper Arley, Stourport-on-Severn and Kinver.
