New energy efficient lighting has been installed in Discovery Museum’s Science Maze thanks to County Durham based LED Supply & Fit.
The new LED lighting is significantly cheaper to run and has brightened up areas of the gallery more effectively, enhancing visibility on objects and pathways for visitors.
Science Maze is a huge interactive gallery popular with all generations which introduces visitors to the wonders of science and engineering.
“New LED lighting uses less power and gives us brighter light, making it a lot more sustainable and energy efficient.”
Nick Butterley, Customer and Facilities Manager at Discovery Museum, said: “We’re really grateful to LED Supply & Fit for helping us light Science Maze. The new LED lighting uses less power and gives us brighter light, making it a lot more sustainable and energy efficient. It’s made a huge difference; the objects are more effectively lit and it has improved accessibility too.”
Gary Rudd, Director of LED Supply & Fit, who has been an electrician for over 25 years, said: “LED lighting is better than traditional lighting because it uses LED chips and it lasts a lot longer. Your traditional lighting can last for between three and eight thousand hours – LED lighting can last up to fifty to sixty thousand hours at half the running cost.”
Stephanie Rudd, Director of LED Supply & Fit, said: “It’s fantastic to be able to support the museum, and the community that use the museum too.”
