What We Do:

  Photometry

For light souces, displays and signs, we measure the amount of light produced, its colour, its rendering quaility and its spatial or angular distribution. We can also measure the optical properties of materials (reflectance and transmittance). » More
     
Training   Training

We deliver training in three subjects: laser safety (with reference to EN 60825); photometry and light measurement; and the photobiological safety of lamps and lighting (with reference to EN 62471). » More
     
  Consultancy

Our consultants can advise on system and full photometric design proposals, and can also perform on-site measurement and statutory light nuisance analysis services. » More
