At Supply Me Ltd, we provide a full range of emergency lighting solutions to ensure businesses meet safety regulations and provide clear evacuation routes during power failures, fires, or other emergencies. Our systems comply with BS 5266-1, ensuring the safety of employees, customers, and visitors. Here’s a breakdown of the types of emergency lighting we offer:

1. Maintained Emergency Lighting

  • Functions as a standard light fixture but remains illuminated during a power failure.

  • Commonly used in cinemas, theatres, and public venues where normal lighting is dimmed.

  • Ensures clear visibility in all conditions.

2. Non-Maintained Emergency Lighting

  • Normally off and only activates during a power failure.

  • Common in office buildings, warehouses, and workplaces where emergency lighting is only needed in an outage.

  • Cost-effective and energy-efficient.

3. Escape Route Lighting

  • Specifically designed to illuminate escape routes, including corridors, stairwells, and fire exits.

  • Ensures that emergency exit doors, directional signs, and stairways remain well-lit for a safe evacuation.

  • Essential for large buildings, hospitals, shopping centers, and multi-story offices.

4. Open-Area (Anti-Panic) Lighting

  • Prevents panic by providing general illumination in large open areas like warehouses, retail spaces, and reception areas.

  • Helps people safely move towards escape routes during an emergency.

  • Reduces the risk of accidents or disorientation in public and workplace environments.

5. High-Risk Task Area Lighting

  • Designed for areas where workers are engaged in potentially hazardous tasks (e.g., operating heavy machinery or working with chemicals).

  • Ensures that safety procedures can be safely completed before evacuation.

  • Common in factories, laboratories, and industrial plants.

6. Emergency Exit Signs

  • Illuminated or LED-lit signs above emergency exits to clearly indicate safe escape routes.

  • Available in standard and custom designs to suit different premises.

  • Required in all commercial and public buildings to comply with UK fire safety regulations.

7. Central Battery Emergency Lighting Systems

  • Uses a central power source to control multiple emergency lights.

  • Easier to maintain than individual battery-operated lights.

  • Ideal for large buildings, hospitals, shopping centers, and educational institutions.

8. Self-Contained Emergency Lighting Systems

  • Each emergency light has its own built-in battery, making installation easy.

  • A cost-effective solution for smaller businesses and standalone buildings.

  • Requires regular testing and maintenance to ensure reliability.
