More than 330 reclaimed recessed wallwasher luminaires are being offered for reuse following their removal from a Cat A office fit-out at Overbury’s Coleman Street project.
The Fagerhult Pleiad G4 165 luminaires are being made available through the FIS Project Reuse initiative, which connects surplus construction materials and building products with potential new users.
The collection comprises 156 standard luminaires and a further 177 fitted with three-hour emergency functionality. The recessed fittings measure 183 x 138mm and feature DALI/phase-pulse control. All are finished in RAL 9010.
The reclaimed fittings are priced at £43.40 each for standard versions and £72.30 for emergency models. This represents a 65 per cent saving against the cost of equivalent new products.
The available stock has a stated equivalent new value of £167,000 and represents an estimated 22,655kg of avoided CO2 equivalent emissions.
Datasheets are available for prospective buyers, allowing them to assess the fittings’ suitability for new projects. The luminaires are currently stored at CAMA in Southend, Essex, where storage is free until the end of November. A further six months’ storage can be arranged for £440.
The collection demonstrates the potential to recover significant quantities of functioning lighting equipment during commercial refurbishment, rather than consigning it to waste. Cat A fit-outs frequently involve the removal of luminaires that are still in good working order, even when the wider lighting installation is being replaced as part of a new tenant’s specification.
Finding new homes for these products can deliver both financial and environmental benefits, avoiding the embodied carbon associated with manufacturing replacement fittings while reducing the cost of lighting installations.
FIS Project Reuse provides a route for contractors and building owners to make surplus products available to the market, helping to establish reuse as a practical alternative to disposal.
