Dutch education organisation HUB Noord-Brabant has switched to an optimised Thorlux lighting system at its Rosmalen site.

HUB Noord-Brabant, which provides specialised education and support for children and young people with developmental and learning needs, recognised the value of replacing outdated fluorescent lighting with modern LEDs to improve lighting quality, thereby supporting students’ concentration and comfort.

The new SmartScan-controlled lighting system has increased energy efficiency, reduced carbon emissions, and enabled preventative maintenance, minimising disruption to students’ school lives.

Complementing the recent Firefly discreet emergency luminaire, Thorlux Lighting is proud to introduce the new Firefly Surface.

Firefly Surface is a robust and durable emergency luminaire with IP65 and IK10 ratings. Thorlux has designed Firefly Surface to ensure legislative compliance and safety for rugged industrial environments, as well as more typical applications where recessed mounting is not possible. Furthermore, it meets the latest BS EN 1838:2024, BS EN 50172:2024 and BS 5266-1:2025 standards.

In the UK, the key legislation governing emergency lighting is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRO 2005). This law sets out the responsibilities for fire safety in non-domestic premises, including the requirement for suitable emergency lighting.

Under this law, a ‘responsible person’ must be appointed. This is typically the building owner, employer, facilities manager, or health and safety manager. Their duties include:

• Ensuring the correct installation of emergency lighting.
• Maintaining emergency lighting and associated safety systems.
• Updating the Fire Safety Risk Assessment annually or when significant changes occur.
• Keeping accurate records of testing and maintenance.
• Establishing clear emergency procedures.

Failure to meet these obligations can have serious consequences. Importantly, the law states that ignorance of these requirements is not a valid defence. Every responsible person must understand their duties and ensure their emergency lighting system remains fit for purpose.

As awareness of waste reduction and product circularity grows, retrofitting is becoming an increasingly popular solution; it can also be an economically effective way to modernise an outdated lighting system.

In this video, Business Development Manager Andre Dobraszczyk discusses what makes for an effective lighting retrofit and how Thorlux approaches a remanufacturing project.

There was World Cup-level drama and excitement at the recent Thorlux Football Tournament, which was hosted at nearby Redditch United FC.

Four teams of players from across the company battled for supremacy in front of a crowd of colleagues and families. In the final, it came down to a tense penalty shoot-out, with Product Manager Max Lang saving the final shot to secure victory for the Red team.

Well done to all involved, and we’ll see you again next year!

It is now exactly one year since Thorlux ushered in a fresh era of emergency lighting with the launch of the compact, powerful new Firefly.

Built with a 100% recycled polycarbonate housing and a choice of five high-performance acrylic optics, using 35% less material than the old version, Firefly is a compact, powerful, and versatile emergency safety luminaire. With long-life lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄) batteries, dedicated SmartScan wireless versions, and a market-leading ten-year warranty, we were proud to say a year ago that Firefly is the next step in emergency lighting – and it has proven to be, rapidly becoming one of the best-selling Thorlux products of all time.

When discussing our carbon emissions and plans to reduce them, we must be as accurate and open as possible. If not, we risk misrepresenting the action being taken to fight climate change.

As part of FW Thorpe Group, Thorlux Lighting’s emissions are independently verified to ISO 14064-3, confirming that its Scope 1, 2, and 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are accurately quantified. This guarantees the validity of GHG-reduction statements from Thorlux and its sister companies.
