CASE STUDIES
INDUSTRIAL RETAIL
A SNAPSHOT
International
Comprising manufacturing, warehousing and dispatch buildings, this heavy energy user had a lighting system that was on 24 hours a day.
A wide variety of old fittings, technologies and lighting outputs throughout, left areas with poor and uneven lighting, posing health & safety risks to colleagues.
OUTCOME
Aurora was able to cut lighting bills by >50%, reducing operational maintenance costs by replacing ageing fittings, whilst delivering improved light quality, consistency and coverage throughout.
A safer working environment for colleagues, whilst achieving return on investment in less than 2 years.
Smyths
A SNAPSHOT
Although the site has false ceilings, it was impossible to recess fittings on the first floor. Aurora designed a new layout which limited the need for construction work to ceilings. The only challenging aspect was that all works were to be undertaken at night, so as not to disrupt the daily workings of this fully operational store.
OUTCOME
Upgrading all old fittings to LED increased light levels to 750-1000lux, and reduced lighting energy consumption to 23,000W from over 60,000W.
Smyths was the perfect refurbishment project, with MMK Electrical Ltd. installing an excellent surface and suspension mounted solution, laser levelled on all products.

A luxury complex of modern apartments with bright, high ceilings and large windows. The lighting design needed to complement this to create light open spaces with a warm and comfortable ambience throughout.
Aurora provided a special RAL grey finish to the Klay™ wall lighting used in the balconies.
OUTCOME
Mac Electrical Armagh worked with Electrical Equipment in Belfast for all product orders: “Aurora provided a wide range of quality products and the end result is modern, luxurious and matches the aesthetic that the client desired.”
- Philip McBirney, M.D., Mac Electrical
Specialist Eye Hospital Wilgeheuwel, South Africa
PRODUCTS USED: Commercial Downlights | BackLite™ Flat Panels | Bulkheads | LinearPac™ Anti-Corrosives
A SNAPSHOT
Aurora delivered a simple yet sleek and clean final look as a turnkey lighting solution. A strict project requirement was that all luminaires installed in operating theatres were 100% flicker free, which was vital as the hospital mainly caters for advanced eye surgery cases.
OUTCOME
“Our new hospital required high quality lighting and a unique scheme to align with the modern environment. With Aurora’s attention to detail, from consultation to installation, we have managed to achieve this. We couldn’t be happier with the result.”
- Nicola van der Westhuizen, Group OPS Manager
