As part of its Actulite polarised daylight lighting range, Aura Corporation Ltd has now created a ‘Superlife’ option, offering luminaires with a written guarantee for a minimum of 10 years or 80,000 hours maintenance-free life, including tubes. The Superlife option is available with the 18, 36 and 58 watt models in the Actulite range. Superlife models retain all the benefits of standard Actulite luminaires, including an increase in visual acuity of 120%, yet are guaranteed for 4 times normal life.

Actulite polarised daylight lighting from Aura Corporation has been specified for four operating theatres and two patient wards at Barnsley Hospital. Barnsley Hospital selected Actulite as a long-lasting, energy saving and high quality lighting solution, which could also be installed into existing light fittings. Managers at the hospital looked to change the lighting as part of the upgrade of the operating theatres and selected patient wards. Commenting on the project, Rob Rennison, estates manager at Barnsley Hospital said, “We sought to replace the existing lighting to improve energy efficiency whilst at the same time reducing maintenance costs.”
