High performance LEDs are becoming the standard in lighting solutions
LEDs are now becoming the norm in hazardous area lighting, as the UK government has announced plans to phase out the sale of fluorescent tubes and lamps from September 2023. Here at Petrel, we are committed to providing maximum value for our clients and support the UK’s pledge to drive down energy consumption and reduce carbon emissions.
As such we offer a complete range of LED products for use in Zone 1/21 & 2/22 as well as Industrial applications, including an Area light, suited to range of environments where traditionally a floodlight, high bay or low bay luminaire would have been used.
Using energy-efficient LED equivalents to fluorescent lighting will not only save you up to 50% per year* in energy costs, but also contribute towards your net-zero journey as a business.
These are just a couple of our bestselling LED products:
