Projects
Check out some of the projects we have completed.
Sports lighting
Our teams of experts provide energy efficient lighting of sports grounds, as required by the lighting study. We provide cabling, pole placement and connection of LED lighting. Through customized control modules, the lighting can shine brighter or stronger, according to the standards and the time when a particular sport is practiced. This allows every training or match to take place in the best conditions.
Medium Voltage Cabs
Having your own medium-voltage cabin is interesting. As a result, your received power is greater than with a direct connection to the low-voltage grid. Electricity rates are also more advantageous. We install medium-voltage cabins according to the legally defined environmental standards and safety regulations.
Charging poles
By 2025, every commercial vehicle must be at least hybrid. This will entail electric charging in parking lots, both public and those of large commercial and business establishments. Commercial vehicles themselves are increasingly becoming full-electric. We take care of excavation work, installation or reinforcement of the cabin and the placement and programming of the charging stations. Everything is worked out and carried out to the customer's specifications.
Mood lighting
In many cities and towns atmospheric lighting creates a cheerful street scene; in winter during the Christmas period, but just as well in summer. We provide a customized design for every tender, in a specific theme or according to the wishes and needs. With energy-efficient LED lighting and biodegradable materials, we ensure low CO2 emissions. In addition, we also ensure a nice daytime value, so that the installation blends into its surroundings when not in operation.
Blasting buildings
Historic buildings, facades of businesses or other monuments deserve to be highlighted. We provide a thorough lighting study, appropriate lighting design and conversion to LED lighting with atmospheric accents. The installation is carried out safely, with a special elevator and, if necessary, in cooperation with monument conservation authorities.
