Functional light and good visual comfort for offices
Sufficient illuminances for demanding visual tasks are only one aspect of an ergonomic work station. A further key criterion for a comfortable work environment is visual comfort. ERCO therefore optimises luminaires to meet the requirements of efficient visual comfort , combining effective lighting technology for high light output ratios with optimum glare limitation.

Using light to create atmosphere in the office
Perception-orientated lighting design goes far beyond the rules specified for horizontal illuminance. It seeks to ensure the wellbeing of employees at their workplaces. Zonal lighting for work surfaces, wall shelving and conference tables ensures a varied and attractive work environment. Vertical illuminance in offices provides a pleasant level of brightness in the field of vision, but also gives an open spatial impression.
Light as an expression of corporate identity
Architectural lighting is a powerful medium for companies to communicate their corporate identity. Lighting concept and choice of luminaires combine to produce a striking appearance - and so reinforce the corporate culture for staff and visitors. At night, the building can act as an expressive light signal in the urban space.
Efficient lighting for long-term savings
ERCO optimises the lighting technology against the actual lighting task to achieve maximum efficiency and excellent visual comfort. The efficient technology allows operators to reduce the number of luminaires and therefore also the investment costs. Long life and efficient lighting control guarantee lower operating costs for modern LED luminaires even in the long term.
Effective lighting technology with LEDs
The advantages of efficient LED luminaires include excellent luminous efficacy and a long life. A service life of 50,000 hours ensures maintenance-free operation in offices over 20 years. A reduced connected load also means less heat input, which has a positive effect on the operating costs for ventilation and air conditioning.
Lighting control for efficiency and atmosphere
Lighting control in the office presents three essential advantages: 1. The illuminance does not usually need to be as consistently high as specified, but can be reduced. 2. A daylight-dependent control system reduces the electricity requirement. 3. Zoning allows individual control based on activity and preference. Lighting control also lets employees adjust the atmosphere to suit their own ends.
