Decathlon was to open its flagship site in 2018 and it required a lighting solution from Swann Lighting which provided energy efficiency whilst utilising the latest in LED lighting technology. The store was to operate as Decathlon’s headquarters here in the UK so not only was the lighting to enhance the customer experience on the shop floor but also meet requirements for Decathlon’s staff in back of house office and working environments. 

Being HQ here in the UK, Decatlon wanted to differentiate their sales floor lighting in comparison to what has been installed at their other retails outlets. This affect was achieved by, as opposed to creating long rows of light (as in other stores), blanking plates were installed after each fitting within the trunking to create a pattern effect. This in turn meant that a number of blanking plates could house the emergency luminaire along with the control gear and battery to allow for a fully integrated system. 

🡆 Applications require lighting include shop floor, offices, communal areas, store rooms, WC and changing areas.

🡆 90,000 sq. ft store space. 

🡆 Complete within tight deadline in time for store opening.

🡆 Asterius luminaire with 110° beam was utilised throughout the shop floor areas, DALI dimmable to allow for complete client control and boosting energy savings.

🡆 Chimera suspended at 2.3m above floor luminaire to provide 500 lux maintained average at desk level in the main office and communal areas.

🡆 Slica 600x600 LED panel utilised in smaller offices and meeting rooms.

🡆 Olivia downlights incorporated into WC and changing areas.
