Netcare recently merged its Union and Clinton hospitals into one. The new 427-bed hospital, located in the Newmarket development precinct, is conveniently located for residents of the greater Alberton area and is also easily accessible for patients from further afield.
This state-of the-art healthcare facility required a high-quality lighting solution. BEKA Schréder has supplied the LED lighting for the reception and parking areas. All luminaires have been designed and manufactured in South Africa, taking the continent’s harsh environmental conditions into account, thus ensuring a long product lifetime. BFBA Consulting Engineers specified these luminaires for their reliable performance, energy efficiency, no need for lamp replacements or regular maintenance, and a 3- to 5-year warranty.
The hospital’s large entrance hall and staircase in the reception area is illuminated by LEDDISK decorative suspended LED pendant luminaires. The LEDDISK is the ideal luminaire for indoor commercial facilities, meeting light level requirements with an aesthetic design, limited glare and a high light output if needed. The LEDDISK offers substantial energy savings compared to any conventional pendant luminaire in its class, and with a higher performance.
Further general area lighting is provided by the BEKA SERIES 20 square LED bulkhead. The diffuser offers excellent vandal resistance, is highly translucent and will not discolour even when subjected to harsh UV environments, thus ensuring a long-lasting lighting solution.
The company’sKAZELLE LED post tops illuminate the parking area of the hospital. The KAZELLE provides a sustainable lighting solution which dramatically reduces energy consumption and improves visual comfort for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians. The KAZELLE emits a pleasant, glare-free light and offers a reliable, efficient, discreet and vandal-resistant lighting solution.
The LEDLUME-MIDI has been installed along the roads on the hospital grounds. The LEDLUME range offers optimised photometrical performance with a minimum total cost of ownership. The great variety of high-performance optics optimises the photometric distribution for each specific application to achieve minimum energy consumption.
The LEDLUME range offers flexible combinations of LED modules, a choice of currents and dimming options to further maximise energy savings and provide the most cost-effective solution.
BEKA Schréder develops and manufactures energy-efficient LED lighting products in South Africa, designed and suitable for local conditions.
