Choose the right partner support route

Whether you need help sourcing products, supporting a live project, adding design capacity or offering lighting design under your own brand, we can work as your preferred lighting partner, behind-the-scenes support team, or fully white-labelled design service.

  • Trade Lighting Procurement

    Send us your product list, schedule or brief. We source fittings, check alternatives, prepare quotations, negotiate pricing and help you order suitable lighting products for your project.

  • Project Lighting Support

    For live projects where lighting decisions, product choices, substitutions, budgets or technical questions need expert input before they delay the job.

  • Outsourced Lighting Design Support

    Add flexible lighting design capacity without hiring in-house. We can help with layouts, markups, schedules, product selections, calculations and design revisions.

  • White-Label Lighting Design

    Offer lighting design under your own brand as a service your business can sell. We produce the work in the background, helping you expand your offer without building the capability in-house.

Built for professionals who specify, sell or deliver lighting

We support trade and project professionals who need better lighting products, stronger specifications, extra design capacity or a lighting design service they can offer under their own brand.

  • Interior Designers

    Add specialist lighting input, product sourcing and design support while keeping control of the client relationship, design direction and finished look.

  • Architects

    Get lighting layouts, product guidance and specification support that fits the architectural intent, project drawings and coordination requirements.

  • Builders, Contractors & Developers

    Resolve lighting decisions, substitutions, quotations and project-stage issues before they create delays, confusion or budget pressure.

  • Electrical Contractors

    Use us for fitting selection, product alternatives, lighting schedules and client-facing design support when a project needs more than installation.

  • Lighting Distributors & Electrical Wholesalers

    Add design-led support around product sales, helping customers choose suitable fittings and increasing the value of project enquiries.

  • Kitchen, Bathroom & Furniture Studios

    Offer lighting advice, product sourcing or design support around your core projects without building a specialist lighting team in-house.

Avoid lighting bottlenecks without building an in-house team

Lighting becomes a bottleneck when product choices, technical details, budgets and client expectations all need to line up. We give you specialist support to keep decisions moving, protect the client relationship and improve the final result.

  • Keep projects moving

    Lighting decisions can slow a project when product choices, substitutions, quotations or technical questions are left unresolved. We help you make practical lighting decisions earlier, so the project does not stall while everyone waits for clear answers.

  • Add specialist lighting expertise

    Most project teams do not need a full-time lighting specialist, but they do need expert input at key moments. We help with product selection, layouts, schedules, fitting suitability and design advice when lighting needs more than a standard quotation.

  • Connect design with supply

    A good lighting idea still needs products that are suitable, available, affordable and deliverable. We help bridge the gap between design intent and real fittings, so specifications can move from concept to quotation and supply.

  • Protect your client relationship

    Use us as your preferred lighting partner, quiet behind-the-scenes support, or a fully white-labelled design service under your own brand. You stay in control of how we are introduced, how visible we are and how the client relationship is handled.

  • Reduce product risk

    The wrong fitting can create glare, poor light levels, awkward installation details or budget problems. We help review products, suggest alternatives and consider lead times, dimming, finish, beam angle, IP rating and project suitability.

  • Scale without fixed overhead

    Use us when you need extra lighting capability without hiring, training or managing another person. We can support one quotation, one difficult project, recurring design work, overflow capacity or a white-label service your business can offer clients.

Lighting support trusted by designers, suppliers and project teams

Our work combines lighting design judgement, practical product sourcing and project-stage support.
Partners use us when they need reliable lighting expertise without adding permanent overhead.

Additional Comments

Frequently asked questions

Who can apply for trade or partner support?

We work with interior designers, architects, builders, contractors, developers, kitchen and bathroom studios, furniture studios, lighting retailers, distributors, electrical wholesalers and other businesses involved in specifying, selling or delivering lighting projects.

Do you only work with established trade accounts?

No. We can support established businesses, independent designers, small studios and project-based teams. The important thing is that you have a genuine lighting requirement, project opportunity or recurring need for lighting support.

Can you work directly with our clients?

Yes. We can work as your preferred lighting partner and be introduced directly to your client or project team where that suits the relationship. We can also work quietly behind the scenes if you prefer to remain the main point of contact.

Can you provide white-label lighting design?

Yes. We can produce lighting design work under your own brand, depending on the agreed scope and presentation requirements. This is suitable for businesses that want to offer lighting design without hiring an in-house lighting designer.

What is the difference between behind-the-scenes support and white-label support?

Behind-the-scenes support usually means we advise your team while you remain the visible contact with the client. White-label support goes further: we produce client-facing lighting design work that can be presented under your own brand.

Can you help with product sourcing and quotations?

Yes. Send us product lists, schedules, images, plans, links or a project brief. We can source suitable fittings, suggest alternatives, prepare quotations and help with availability, lead times and budget considerations.

Can you help when a project is already underway?

Yes. Many partners come to us during a live project when lighting choices, substitutions, budgets, schedules or technical details need resolving quickly. We can help bring structure to the next decision.

Can you check substitutions or alternative fittings?

Yes. We can review proposed alternatives against the design intent, dimensions, finish, light output, beam angle, dimming requirements, IP rating, installation constraints, availability and budget.

Can you produce lighting plans and schedules?

Yes. Depending on the support route, we can help with marked-up lighting plans, product schedules, fitting selections, design notes, presentation information and supporting technical checks.

Do you provide lighting calculations or technical design support?

Yes, where required. We can support with lighting calculations, fitting suitability, layout advice, beam angles, light levels and technical product checks. The exact level of technical detail depends on the project and agreed scope.

Do you install the lighting?

No. We do not install lighting. We support the design, specification, sourcing and supply side of the project. Installation should be carried out by the appropriate contractor, electrician or local project team.

Can you support both residential and commercial projects?

Yes. We can support residential, hospitality, retail, workplace, exterior and garden lighting projects. The level of support can range from product sourcing through to more detailed lighting design and project support.

Which countries do you cover?

We support trade and project partners across the UK and Europe. Product availability, delivery options and project arrangements may vary depending on the location and scope of the work.

How does pricing work?

It depends on the route. Product procurement support may be funded through product supply. More involved project support, outsourced design work or white-label delivery is usually charged separately by project, retainer, hourly package or agreed scope.

What should we send you first?

Send whatever you already have: plans, product links, schedules, client brief, moodboards, images, budget notes, site photos or the problem you are trying to solve. We can then recommend the most suitable support route.
