Lighting and workplace health go hand in hand. Well-designed lighting can aid concentration, boost staff morale, improve energy levels and reduce fatigue and headaches. In combination with a plentiful supply of fresh air and effective ventilation, good lighting ensures an effective, healthy and productive office environment.
The comfortable, glare-free light required for offices is now available from LED technology. LED systems with the capability to combine good light quality with low energy consumption and long lifespans, make a compelling proposition for circulation areas. Particularly if these systems come with options for recessed, suspended or surface mounting to suit individual applications.
Lighting in a reception area plays an important role for making staff and visitors welcome, aiding the transition from outside to inside the heart of the building itself. Well-designed and specified lighting 'sets the scene' and helps to create the right first impression.
Communal areas, with their irregular usage and occupancy levels, need to incorporate lighting with options for dimming, daylight detection and presence control, as well as emergency lighting. LED lighting provides the versatility needed for these areas.

There is therefore the need to incorporate lighting with options for dimming, daylight detection and presence control, as well as emergency lighting.

Lighting consideration for toilet facilities varies greatly depending on occupancy levels. Smaller premises with fewer staff could benefit from a presence detector, however in larger premises, toilets are likely to be one of the areas that are illuminated throughout the day. Switching to LEDs with a wider beam, saves energy, reduces maintenance costs compared to halogen or florescent lamps and gives a better looking result.
