Business
energy use accounts for up to 25% of all
energy used in the UK per year with lighting
accounting for some 15% off this.
Business’s can claim grants through the
Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) scheme to
make considerable cost savings in the
changeover to more energy efficient
lighting. For example, on equipment costs of
£10,000, the company can reduce its taxable
profit by £10,000, and makes a first year
saving of £3,000, assuming Corporation or
Income Tax is chargeable at 30%. (visit
www.eca.gov.uk for more information)
Below are some of the main benefits of using
energy saving LED lighting in your business.

- LED light bulbs use different
technology that enable them to produce a
highly efficient and compact light using
a fraction of the energy of other
conventional bulbs and can last up to 25
times as long.
- A long lifespan of around 50,000
hours means that the LED lamps in a
lighting installation are completely
maintenance free for over 5 years if used 24
hrs a day.
- LED’s bulbs can be used as a direct
replacement for existing inefficient
bulb types without the requirement for
changing the entire light fitting.
- LED’s can produce a richer and more
natural light and are available in many
colours to suit your specific
requirement. They can be used for both indoor
and outdoor applications and perform
reliably at different temperatures.
- LED lighting is very directional and
depending on your choice of product, it
can be used to light anything from stock
display to an entire warehouse.
- LEDS’s have no UV or IR radiation
which means they create more
enviromentaly friendly working
environment.
- LED’s are easy to dispose of as no
harmful gases are used in the products
therefore making them environmentally
friendly and simple to recycle against
current Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment regulations (WEEE).
