Contemporary in style and extremely space efficient, downlights offer a versatile long-life solution for both domestic and commercial installations, especially given their ability to create different moods and ambiences. As such they are proving to be one of the UK’s most popular light fittings.
That said, however, there can be risks attached with low-budget downlights, which is why we recommend ROBUS, who manufacture a full range which are made from quality materials, look great and can be adapted to include alternative colour finishes to match or contrast with different shades of décor, doors and furniture.
Above all, though, it is their safety features which impress Mark Smith, owner of MS Electrical Services. ‘We like ROBUS downlights because they're IP65, enabling them to be installed within bathrooms,’ comments Mark. ‘They're also fire rated which means that they can help delay the spread of fire through the light fitting and they only run at seven watts, making them highly energy efficient. What’s more, the covers of the downlight fittings can be swapped to different colours so it’s possible to adapt the look without changing the entire light fitting. If you’re considering switching to downlights these are all very important considerations.’
