Professional lighting

Lighting for offices, schools, hospitals, hotels, industries, museums and other public environments.

Professional Lighting is the largest Business Area in the Fagerhult Group. Offices, schools and hospitals are some of the environments in which Fagerhult's solutions for good lighting can be found.

Based on the Energy Directive, Fagerhult, in close co-operation with the customer, creates and delivers solutions for lighting with the focus on the ergonomics of the work place.

Architects and technical construction consultants

In its market processing, the business area primarily targets the prescribed portion, that is, architects and technical construction consultants, who are to deliver solutions to lighting problems as part of their assignment.

Development within this area is mainly driven by demands for energy efficiency, to which the EU’s Energy Directive applies. This means that all buildings must submit energy declarations. It is possible to reduce energy consumption in all buildings by at least 20 percent. This can be accomplished by fine-tuning the heating, ventilation and lighting in the building’s public spaces.
