The Project
Founded in 1992, NAPIT is one of the leading Government approved and UKAS accredited membership scheme operators in the building services and fabric sectors. There are currently more than 20,000 NAPIT registered businesses in the electrical, heating, plumbing, ventilation, microgeneration and building fabric trades across the UK domestic, commercial and industrial markets. In 2005 NAPIT Training was launched, this amplified the commitment NAPIT has to ensuring tradespeople in the UK are trained, certified and accredited to the highest industry standards.
The company was receiving complaints from staff members at its Mansfield offices about issues with glare causing headaches, Bright Source were brought in with an aim of creating a more comfortable environment while also looking to reduce NAPIT’s electricity costs and achieve a more sustainable lighting solution.
After conducting a detailed lighting survey of the current lighting, we recommended to replace existing non-LED panels with our Mesmer TP(a) 600 x 600 Panels. These premium LED panels ensure a low glare of UGR<19, guarantee a 5-year warranty, and are low maintenance, long-life and eco-friendly in design. The energy-efficient panels produce up to 50% lower power consumption than non-LED panels and contribute to saving on energy usage and costs. Prior to installation of the new LED panels, the layout was modelled in Dialux in order to ensure sufficient light levels and a compliant working environment would be achieved.
The lighting renovation of NAPIT’s Mansfield offices has offered a 50% saving on electricity usage. The optimal lighting installed has been an excellent investment for the sustainable future of the company, reducing its carbon footprint and energy bills while promoting an environment where staff can work more productively and effectively.
