uceco has recently supplied their Sigma luminaires to the Royal Liver Building. The building overlooks the River Mersey from its waterfront location on the Pier Head and forms one of the ‘Three Graces’ along with the Port of Liverpool Building and the Cunard Building. CBRE, a global leader in commercial real estate services, has managed the refurbishment of the iconic Grade I Liver Building to create a ‘best in Class’ office and leisure destination. The 8th floor is home to The Bank of New York Mellon who now benefits from a significantly improved, energy efficient lit environment. Tom Francis, Luceco project manager said: “We worked alongside CorEnergy, part of the SureServe Group, based in Manchester, a renewables specialist in the sustainability and low-carbon sectors. Sigma was selected for this impressive office environment due to its advanced technical performance,
a direct/indirect recessed
luminaire for low glare applications designed to assist with LG7 compliant settings.” Backlit LED technology and a central
Tp(a) microprism optic ensured suitability for this office environment offering UGR 19 compliance and less than 3,000 cdm2
at 65°.

up to 117 Llm/cW, Platinum Mini features a unique swing tab design for quick and easy installation.
Sigma is engineered to be installed in the traditional lay in method or pulled up to the ceiling using specially designed swing tabs. The luminaire has a range of mounting accessories for solid or plasterboard ceilings and is also suitable for non-standard ceilings in commercial applications. As well as offering an efficacy of 130 Llm/cW and excellent photometric performance, Sigma delivers over 100,000 hours of maintenance
free, operational life.
James Burton from CorEnergy, part of the SureServe Group, said: “The successful completion of this lighting improvement project at the Liver Building is a great example of CorEnergy working in partnership with Luceco to provide an enhanced lighting solution within a prestigious building. In a time where all businesses are striving for carbon neutrality whilst also facing the impact of rising energy costs, our lighting solution will result in a significant return on investment for the client and deliver ongoing carbon savings.”
Opened in 1911 as the headquarters to the Royal Liver Group, the Royal Liver Building holds historical and cultural importance to the city of Liverpool, including Bertie and Bella, the mythical Liver Birds adorning its towers. The Liver Building was a pioneer of its time, being one of the first buildings in the world to be built using reinforced concrete. Today this iconic structure has been carefully managed
by maintaining the building’s
Grade I status as well as offering the facilities to service modern commercial users, cost effective, energy efficient lighting being of significant importance to the environmental operations of the building.
