Celesio UK, part of McKesson Europe, is a leading provider of integrated healthcare services to the NHS.
They specialise in medicines, pharmaceutical care and primary care patient services. Their UK head office is located in Sapphire Court, Coventry. Celesio UK manage a range of integrated health services in community pharmacies, hospitals and care homes.
The Sapphire Court site is a large building. It contains wide open plan offices, a canteen, meeting rooms and communal areas. As a thriving business moving at pace, facilities are geared towards providing the ideal working environment for staff. This means that it must aid wellbeing and productivity.
With a significant number of employees, working in a large office can lead to a feeling of being cramped and crowded. This was addressed recently following a major refurbishment and lighting upgrade where Tamlite Lighting was specified.
Intelligent design
Firstly, the new lighting design enhances the office layout, provides long-term energy savings and contributes to staff wellbeing. This has been achieved through a Tamlite Vision Lighting Control solution, using the DALI-enabled Vision Connect range.
Consequently, Vision Connect gives facility managers the freedom and control to create the optimal working environment for offices. A connected system ensures that staff are comfortable, productive, and stay focused for longer.
The meeting rooms at Celesio UK are used for a wide range of activities. This includes hosting visitors to staff meetings. Therefore, the lighting needs to reflect this and be flexible to accommodate.
Energy Savings
Significant energy savings were achieved with Vision Connect DALI Daylight. Daylight harvesting monitors the natural light and automatically adapts throughout the day. This ensures that the light levels remain consistent throughout their open plan office, only lighting when and where it is needed. As a result, it provides a significant reduction on energy consumption for Celesio UK.
