Philips Selecon's new Wing range of performance wall washer floods was being demonstrated at Northern Light's festival showcase in August and Jim Ewen, Arts Centre technician for project ability at Trongate 103, was one of NL's invited guests.
Ewen said: "Trongate 103's official launch was coming up on 8 September and I was looking for some architectural lighting to illuminate the exhibits. After consulting with the team from Northern Light and seeing the fixtures in action, I realised that the Selecon Wing 35W metal halide model would be absolutely perfect for our needs."
Northern Light provided a total of 142 Selecon Wing Wall Washers in architectural white for the client to install across a range of spaces within the six storey former Edwardian warehouse.
Barclay Dakers, head of retail with Northern Light, said, "The client was looking for a versatile fixture which offered even coverage and reduced power consumption. The Selecon Wing is specifically designed to give a high output and exceptionally even light coverage, making these fixtures ideal for this project."
Ritchie Reed, UK technical specialist for Philips Selecon, said: "We're delighted that Glasgow's Trongate 103 will be using the Selecon Wing 35W Metal Halide WallWasher. Reflecting our company's drive to deliver significant energy saving solutions to the entertainment and display lighting market, the Wing will be perfect for their needs thanks to its exceptional lamp life of 15,000 hours and low energy consumption. Also the Wing's unobtrusive design will create minimal interference within their impressive Edwardian space."
Colin Cuthbert, managing director at Northern Light, added: "This substantial sale is a perfect example of the excellent relationships that Northern Light enjoys with both suppliers and customers. Demonstrating supplier products to our customers during our recent Festival Showcase was the catalyst that matched this client to this particular product. We will continue to deliver these product demonstrations and masterclasses to ensure that our customers remain fully aware of what is available to them."
