Luxonic Lighting, one of the leading UK lighting manufacturers, has underlined its sustainability credentials by becoming a Carbon Trust accredited supplier as well as achieving IS0 14001.

Luxonic Lighting had to demonstrate to the Carbon Trust how its products and services reduce clients’ energy bills by fitting its highly efficient luminaires and control systems. An organisation wishing to reduce their carbon footprint and save money can approach the Carbon Trust, which will then offer Luxonic Lighting as a supplier of lighting products that is certified to carry out the work required.

Alternatively, in new builds, a client may want to install the best, most energy efficient and environmentally sound lighting into their new building to achieve an ‘Excellent’ BREEAM certification. Again they could approach the Carbon Trust for advice as to where to find suitable lighting suppliers.

Thomas Ollier, Corporate Development Manager, commented, “Typically our clients can see payback within the year on a refurbished lighting scheme.”

Luxonic Lighting has also now earned the right to display the coveted ISO 14001 certification mark to demonstrate its conformance to the standard. The independent assessment was conducted by leading certification body, UKAS Management Systems, and it demonstrates Luxonic Lighting’s commitment to customer service and quality in delivery.

ISO 14001 was first introduced in 1996 as a British Standard and requires organisations to have an environmental policy and action plan to manage their impact on their environment. Certified organisations are committed to continuous improvement and are assessed annually to ensure progress is being maintained.

Martyn Wherry, Regional Director of Luxonic Lighting said, “We are particularly pleased to have achieved ISO 14001 certification to add to our IS0 9001 standard as it underlines our commitment to our customers and our focus on quality.  Not many customers get to see their suppliers’ ‘back-office’ activities.  This recognition demonstrates we can provide a quality solution from quotation to delivery.”
