Details:
Glasgow Life aimed to replace the aging spotlights at the Kelvingrove Bandstand. The historic venue required a sustainable solution that would preserve its aesthetics. With a busy schedule of events, it would a challenge to rapidly remove, upgrade and replace the existing spotlights without disruption.
Initial surveys of the site and a review of a sample spotlight showed that remanufacturing would be the best option. By choosing this sustainable solution, we not only preserved the bandstand’s aesthetics but also avoided the need for entirely new products. This decision saved on new lighting designs, reduced installation work, and minimised costs. Additionally, we corrected several design aspects to meet IP requirements, ensuring a more robust solution.
