College lighting has been given a new lease of modern-day life in the cafeteria, library and social area, through products from the Sira, Qel Linear and Solution ranges.<br /> The cafeteria now boasts a Sira suspended continuous luminaire linked with infill spacers. The bi-directional output with an equal fifty percent up/down split also assists with compliance to LG7 guidelines and brings education lighting into the 21st century.<br /> Outdated T12 battens with yellow distorted prismatic diffusers have been replaced with new T5 lighting products from Sira’s range. The low ceiling seating area now boasts Qel 2 surface linears and Solution ECA recessed modulars in the library.<br /> Socialising takes place in a brighter environment thanks to the T5 lighting fixtures offered by Sira continuous suspended lighting.
