Lighting Design, Luminaire Development and UK Manufacture. Our core products are street/ industrial lighting. LED lighting is the future and ALed's will continue to design and develop ground breaking products that challenge. Our design technology means we provide highly efficient lighting solutions that maintain a quality of light far longer than our competition. A £1.5 Billion spend on street lighting upgrades (UK) planned by 2020 provides the market for our continued growth.
We design, manufacture and sell street, amenity and industrial lighting. Our products:
Street Lights - Clipper & Clara (our new product)
Solar Lights - (solar and mains powered architectural light used in high end external locations) - Arum.
Flood Lights - stingray
Industrial Lights - (for use in both internal & external locations - warehousing etc) - High Bay.
Conversion product - Installed on pre existing lights to reduce energy consumptions (low cost option to achieve LED conversion targets) - Minuet.
We offer choice, our mass customisation through modular luminaire systems means we offer what the customer wants compared to our competition who only offer a standard product.
Our product offers greater efficacy (20% higher than other models).
With a typical life span of 20 years for street lights our product requires less maintenance compared to other incumbent technologies (typically needing servicing every 7-15 vs. every 3 years).
Clara has innovative features for the retro fit market - it has been designed specifically for LA retrofit programs.
Short lead times 3-4 weeks.
Fully supported service with transparent surveys, lighting design, energy calculation and after sales care
Government is driving conversion of street lights to LED allocating specific funding to Local Authorities.
Primary customers are LAs, direct or via distributors/contractors. A specification sell, once specified we typically supply regular monthly qty's for several years. Can be prone to short term government budgetary vagaries but often results in Section 38(housing) and 238 (highways) awards where private contractors are obliged to buy our lamps.
Current contracted recurring revenue from existing contracts (6 LA's) >80% of that required to break-even.
2 LAs contracted within the last 3 months.
The 6yr secure (HMG) revenue will fund NPD (our forte) to take co to next phase.
