Today, Tamlite offers around 500 product ranges and more than 15,000 products, cementing its place as one of the industry leaders in cutting-edge lighting solutions across all sectors. “We are proud of our legacy and quite rightly

Over the last three years we have spent more than £4m on product research and development; last year we invested over £0.5m in our own UK production facility to manufacture high performance LED printed circuit boards (PCBs).” The company has also spent a great deal of
time focusing on the customer experience, with an investment of more than £0.5m on eight new showrooms over the last two years. “Our 50th anniversary is a perfect
