SHINING A LIGHT ON BIRKDALE’S LATEST PRODUCT RANGE
Birkdale has recently acquired garden lighting systems brand Ellumiére, bringing a new range to the company’s expanding portfolio. Deck lights, spotlights and illuminated bollards are now available to purchase via a number of Birkdale’s stockists and crucially, a professional electrican is not required for installation.
The acquisition comes at a time of a significant growth for the wider landscaping market. The coronavirus pandemic has meant the population has spent far more time at home, and are consequently making improvements.
This includes maximising their outdoor space and this is where lighting can play an important role in creating the right atmosphere.
The Ellumiére range offers a portfolio of lighting options that landscape professionals can turn to for quality, simplicity and performance. A key advantage is that all products can be installed without the need for any training or by a qualified electrician.
This is because it has been designed as a low voltage, ‘plug and play’ solution.
Plug the transformer into a waterproof external socket and arrange the circuit. The transformer converts 240V of mains supplied electricity to just 12V, ensuring a safe, easy and reliable mains powered lighting solution.
With a sufficient level of power for one circuit, it can include up to 12 LED lights and can be adapted to suit a variety of garden sizes. There is up to 50 metres of cable available per transformer.
With energy efficiency built in, performance is maintained.
The weather resistant design of all Ellumiére products is also a major factor in this.
Between each light and cable there is a T-piece, which prevents any water or dust from getting into the lighting system.
Certified by the International Electrotechnical Comission (IEC), all Ellumiére products have an IP55 rating, while the transformer has an even greater IP65 rating.
Ellumiére offers further assurance with a two- year warranty on all its products.
The Ellumiére range also offers a variety of styles and design options to complement any landscape design.
For example, the bollard lights deliver an ideal solution for driveways and walkways, whereas the spotlights and deck lights are ideal for highlighting garden plants, fencing and decking.
Deck lights can also be customised via a variety of different colour lens options. Additionally, there are two different mounting options available on all Ellumiére products, ensuring that the systems can be easily adapted.
Should automatic activation be desired, the addition of a sensor, with three different time settings, can be easily inserted between the transformer and the first light in the sequence.
This provides not only greater flexibility for the customer but improves energy efficiency further still.
This flexible, efficient and durable product range is now available via Birkdale’s impressive merchant supply-chain, alongside the company’s other four product ranges; GATEMATE, FENCEMATE, SITEMATE and DuraPost®.
Ellumiére products are an ideal option for those looking to enhance landscaping projects with simple to install, high quality 12V lighting.
