Today is #WorldEnvironmentDay.

Every year on June 5, people, communities, and organisations from all over the world come together to celebrate World Environment Day to raise awareness of and take action on urgent environmental challenges.

World Environment Day was founded in 1972 by the United Nations General Assembly founded to increase public awareness of environmental challenges and encourage action. It has since grown to be the largest global venue for environmental advocacy and is observed every year on June 5.

Each year, a new environmental topic has been emphasised to discuss and focus on, so that the particular issue can be resolved as soon as possible. Previous topics covered are climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution, sustainable consumption, and renewable energy.

The theme for this year’s World Environment Day focuses on solutions to plastic pollution under the campaign #BeatPlasticPollution.

Happy International Day of Light!

What is the International Day of Light? The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) established the International Day of Light as a consequence of debates around the importance of light studies and technology achievements held by the international community during 2015, the International Year of Light.

What is the theme for International Day of Light 2023? Each year has a different theme, and this year’s theme is “Light for the Future” which emphasises the importance of light-based technologies in promoting sustainable development.

Why is the International Day of Light celebrated on the 16th May? The International Day of Light is celebrated on the 16th May because it’s the anniversary of the first successful laser firing on May 16, 1960 by the physicist and engineer Theodore Maiman.

Fluorescent lighting will no longer be available throughout 2023 as part of Stage 2 of the Single Lighting Regulation and the updated Restriction of Hazardous Substance (RoHS) directive.

High energy consumption and the frequent maintenance of installed fluorescent lighting is about to become history.

The first part of the ban has already passed with CFLni phase out completing last month for Europe.

Further to Stage 2 of the Single Lighting Regulation and the updated Restriction of Hazardous Substance (RoHS) directive, remaining fluorescent lamps will no longer be sold after the following dates:

FAQ

What is RoHS and how does it affect lighting?
RoHS stands for Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) is a European Union directive (2002/95/EC) for product-level compliance that restricts the use of specific hazardous materials found in electrical and electronic products (EEE). All of the luminaires manufactured by Gemma Lighting are compliant with RoHS and hold the RoHS marking. Specifically in this application it refers to the use of Mercury in fluorescent lamps which is a hazardous substance already banned within EEE and is now continuing to rollout into the lighting industry as part of Stage 2 of the Single Lighting Regulation and the updated Restriction of Hazardous Substance (RoHS) directive.

When in this ban happening?
The ban for CFLni has already happened for our European clients, and our UK clients have until the 1st February 2024. Please see the above table for a full breakdown of the phase out.

What does this mean for our customers?
Gemma Lighting have never used fluorescent lamps as a light source for their luminaires. In fact, Gemma Lighting was the first company to design, manufacture and bring to market an LED street light, all the way back in 2003. Rest assured that when buying from Gemma Lighting, you’re buying a 100% LED lighting solution which is more energy efficient and kinder to the environment when compared to the traditional fluorescent lamps.

What are the next steps?
Planning and preparation is key. We have seen a large uptake of our key clients adopt a new LED lighting scheme to replace their previous fluorescent lamps. Moving to a new LED lighting solution will not only future proof yourself with reduced maintenance costs, but it will also provide a better quality of light as well as reduced energy usage which will save you money on your bills. Switching to a LED lighting solution early is the best way to help keep costs low, especially as the cost of raw materials has been rapidly escalating in price in response to global events. Speak to an energy saving expert from Gemma Lighting now to see how we can help guide you with your LED lighting solutions.

Our Managing Director, Craig Manuel, arrived back this week from Uganda. Whilst he was there he got to spend time at the Ewafe project in Kampala, a children’s home for abounded children. Ewafe means ‘where we belong’ in Luganda and it is a truly special place.

Children who have been abandoned, neglected, trafficked or removed from their families because of abuse are given a safe place to stay, run by the wonderful Kids Club Kampala team.

The children were so excited to have a visitor and were so grateful for all the gifts donated by friends and the team at Gemma Lighting. Thanks to Helen Manuel, one of our account managers for organising. A special thanks also to Burnley Football Club for the kits, the children wore them with pride.

Following on from last week’s Bat Week & also Bat Appreciation Month, we wanted to expand on what Bat & Insect Friendly means, so we have generated a quick Q&A.

Q & A

Bat & Insect Friendly – What Is It? And What Does It Mean?
‘Bat & Insect Friendly’ is our way of self-certifying that our products meet the requirements set out by the International Dark-Sky Association, meaning that our lights are compliant with the Dark Sky Approved criteria.

Dark Sky Approved Criteria – What Is It?
The Dark Sky Approved Criteria is a list of requirements which when assessed by the International Dark-Sky Association (IDA), will grant you the ‘Dark Sky Approved’ fixture seal of approval.

What Are The Specific Requirements?
The requirements to be Dark Sky Approved are:

1) Approved fixtures shall employ warm-toned (3000K and lower) white light sources or may employ amber light sources or filtered LED light sources. (If other CCTs or mounting options are available for the luminaire, a notation needs to be made on the web page, spec sheets, and order forms).
NB: Gemma Lighting offer 3000K as a CCT option, and also have 2700K, 2200K and Red LEDs available as special order. Gemma Lighting note on their datasheets to refer to the 3000K CCT option or lower to be compliant.

2) Photometric files are needed to validate performance characteristics.
NB: Gemma Lighting have LDT files for all our luminaires to support this, and are also readily available for download in the Lighting Reality software.

3) There is an uplight allowance of 0.5% of total output or 50 lumens; whichever is lower, with no more than 10 lumens in 90-100 degree UL zone. Allowable uplight as a by product of the structure and not the source.
NB: The selected range of Gemma Lighting compliant luminaires have 0% uplight. They have internal and external photometric tests which support this.

4) Street and area lights must have a pre or post-installation shielding option.
NB: Spill shields are available from Gemma Lighting for the compliant luminaires.

5) Luminaires are required to have fixed mounts to ensure they are mounted as photometered. There can be up to + or- 10-degree adjustment for levelling if needed.
NB: Gemma Lighting’s compliant luminaires are required to be installed on columns or fixing plates, which is the same way they are mounted photometered in the photometric labs.

6) Luminaires must have dimming capability to 10% of full rating.
NB: Gemma Lighting’s compliant luminaires have DALI dimmable driver options, supplied from Osram for increased reliability.

7) Luminaires must have Safety Certification by an independent laboratory.
NB: Gemma Lighting’s compliant luminaires are independently tested by the LIA.

Why Does The Colour Temperature Need To Be 3000K or Warmer?
This is to remove the blue light content from artificial light which has become disruptive to the ecosystem, including bats & insects which are nocturnal, but also other animals too. In addition to the colour temperature, there must no upwards light spill.

What Is ‘Bug U-0’?
Bug U-0 is an ‘Innovation’ requirement, which isn’t required for the Dark Sky Approved status, but more of a best in class status. It states no uplight allowance, and in doing so achieves the BUG rating U-0.

Any Other Requirements?
The ‘Innovation’ requirement, which isn’t required for the Dark Sky Approved status, also states dimmable to 1% of full rating. smart controls to meet the purpose, no more than 7% of visible emissions in spectrum range of 380-520nm.

Bat Crazy

At Gemma Lighting, we’re just bats about bats! Spookily, October is officially Bat Appreciation Month, and this week specifically is Bat Week!

Bat Week/month is an international, annual celebration designed to raise awareness about the need for bat conservation.

Bats are amazing creatures that are vital to the health of our natural world and economy. Although we may not always see them, bats are hard at work all around the world each night – eating tons of insects, pollinating flowers, and spreading seeds that grow new plants and trees.

Our Work Ethic

At Gemma Lighting, we are members of several professional organisations and are working closely with local governing bodies, environmental agencies and local authorities to ensure the artificial lighting has minimal ecological impact.

We also have an in-house lighting design and engineering team to guide and advise our clients on requirements and suitability. Working together we can help our clients to deliver the right light, at the right time, in the right place.

Our Project Solutions

All of our Warm White street lights, as well as a selection of our amenity lights and post tops are compliant with Dark Sky’s recommendations.

To help our clients further understand, we have added a ‘Bat & Insect Friendly’ logo to our datasheets to identify suitable products.

We offer a range of colour temperatures including 3000 Kelvin as standard, a requirement for the Dark Sky Approval scheme. 2700 Kelvin and 2200 Kelvin can be supplied up on request, and we also offer single spectrum LEDs, such as Red, to make our lights suitable for areas of conservation and wildlife.

Due to all our luminaires being made in the UK from our Portsmouth factory, we are able to provide bespoke solutions with short lead times to aid with conservation of not just bats, but bugs, insects and turtles too.

This month is national work and family month. PLUS today is Factory Friday!!!

When we talk about our team being a family, we genuinely mean it. As just one example, here we have our engineers Katherine and Stephanie, who are also sisters, setting up the Temperature & Humidity Chamber for the next stage in product testing.

All our luminaires are tested here in the UK because they are actually manufactured in our Portsmouth factory in the UK too.

We put our luminaires through a vigorous series of tests to ensure that they meet not only our own high standards of quality, robustness, reliability, and longevity, but our clients too.

To discuss your project and how Gemma Lighting can support you, contact our team today, Call 0800 999 5201 or email info@gemmalighting.com.

Today is national LED light day! Here we have our engineers Katherine and Stephanie setting up the SMT machine for the next batch of PCBs with Osram LEDs.

We regularly produce our street lights, flood lights and bollards using 2700K LEDs and also Red LEDs so they are suitable for areas of conservation. Due to the specific spectral properties of the Osram LEDs we use, they reduce the environmental impact & wildlife impact.

As we manufacture our luminaires in-house, we can provide custom solutions, such as specific LED colour temperatures, with competitive lead times. With our experienced lighting design team and engineering team, we can help you to deliver the right light, at the right time, in the right place.

Switching to an LED lighting solution is an instant way to save money when compared to traditional light sources utilised in outdoor environments. Combine an LED lighting solution with controls to help deliver the right light, at the right time, in the right place, and not only are you on to a winner, but you are also on to an incredibly energy efficient solution with huge savings and fast paybacks.

With the recent staggeringly steep increase in energy costs, the only way to combat it is to reduce your usage.

This is where we come in. Our case studies show customers have saved up to 80% of their annual energy costs when switching to a solution from Gemma Lighting.

Now is the perfect time to invest and upgrade your archaic, inefficient, and deteriorating lighting, for a modern, robust, and future proof solution from Gemma Lighting.

We are an exterior LED lighting specialist, and have solutions for all outdoor areas. Our range covers bollards, amenity lights and post-tops, street lights, flood lights and wall mounted lights.

Switching to a LED light source alone is not enough, you also need to consider a couple of other factors, the environmental impact, and controls.

Choosing the right colour temperature and optics along with a conscientious lighting design is vital for protecting the environment. Our range of products have a variety of options to meet your application requirements which our lighting design team will guide you through.

In our opinion, the battle of LED verses traditional light sources for efficiency has long been won. To maximise your energy savings, you need to combine LED lighting with a controls solution. We have Dali driver and Dali emergency options available for use with a Dali control system, as well as Nema sockets, Photocells, Microwave Sensors, PIR Sensors and Astro Dim options available too.

Delivering the right light, at the right time, in the right place can reduce your energy usage by up to 80%.

At time when we can’t control the unit cost for energy, we can certainly control the kWh used, which in turn reduces the annual energy consumption.
