TRILUX’s Luceo Slim Steals the Spotlight at Pernod Ricard’s Grand Marseille Opening


U


K, November 2023 – TRILUX, a global leader in lighting solutions, is thrilled to announce its pivotal role in illuminating


Pernod Ricard’s new headquarters at the historic Marseille Docks. The French spirits Group has recently relocated its corporate hub to the cultural and architectural masterpiece, showcasing an inspiring fusion of historical charm and modern technology. Encompassing 8,000 square meters of office space within the iconic Marseille Docks, Pernod Ricard’s new facility is illuminated with TRILUX’s bespoke Luceo Slim LED pendant lights in sleek black. The state-of-the-art lighting seamlessly integrates with the historic ambience of the docks, creating a unique atmosphere throughout the building.


The Marseille Docks, built between 1858 and 1864, underwent extensive renovations in the 1990s, resulting in a captivating blend of historical and contemporary elements. Pernod Ricard, following the merger of Pernod and Ricard in 2020, strategically selected the Marseille Docks as the distinguished location for its corporate headquarters. TRILUX’s Luceo Slim, with its large glare-free light emission surface and attractive indirect component,


adds a breath of fresh air to the space. Cyril Tosello, Sales Manager TRILUX France, notes, “The focus on a single lighting solution brings harmony and homogeneity to all rooms, creating a unique atmosphere in the offices, the atrium, and the refectory.” The lighting design not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also incorporates sustainability features. The luminaires are intelligently networked with the LiveLink light management system and equipped with sensors for presence and daylight detection, ensuring optimal energy efficiency. In a noteworthy twist, the credit for the innovative lighting selection goes to the docks’ real estate owner. Impressed by TRILUX’s products’ performance in another dock building, including Luceo Slim, Solvan Flow, and LiveLink, the owner decided to replicate the successful model in the Dock 10.7 building. “The objective was to create optimal conditions and an attractive atmosphere for future tenants through high-quality and energy-efficient lighting. Mission accomplished,” says Tosello. Pernod Ricard expresses satisfaction with the result, marking the success of this collaborative lighting project. As TRILUX continues to illuminate spaces with innovation, the company looks forward to more ventures and creating lighting solutions that leave a lasting impact.

ommercial hot water specialist Adveco has upgraded its GLC & GLT hot water tanks for 2024. The GL range of off-the-shelf cylinders offer low-cost carbon steel shells with a high-quality inorganic enamel lining for commercial hot water projects (DHW) projects requiring direct


electric heating, buffer storage, indirect heating or preheat. Single coil GLC and twin-coil GLT models from 200 to 1000 litres, now incorporate an additional connection located on the upper side of the cylinder providing greater versatility for installation. This addition ensures there are ports available for all common ancillary items, allowing the hot water tanks to be used effectively in a wider range of applications. “For the majority of applications, where cylinders are installed as part of an unvented hot water system, the new connection will serve as a dedicated port for a temperature and pressure relief valve, allowing other high-level connections on the front and top of the tanks to be filled with thermostats or sensors and anodic protection,” said Bill Sinclair, technical director, Adveco. “This will help ensure a system operates efficiently and is sufficiently protected from corrosive effects of mains water to provide increased longevity.” Insulation jackets provided with the 750L and 1000L models have also been upgraded to a removable design manufactured from soft polyester fibre. This the new insulation provides equal or better thermal performance for heat retention to minimise standing losses from the tanks, while enabling removal to temporarily reduce the diameter of the hot water tanks for the purposes of manoeuvring and installing the tanks in areas with limited access. Designed to work with water conditions typically encountered across the UK, GL vessels are suitable for use in systems with maximum working pressure up to 10 bar and temperatures up to 85°C and include as standard a magnesium sacrificial anode (pre-fitted in 300- 1000L variants), and a temperature gauge (pre-fitted in tanks up to 1000L). Carrying both WRAS and Kiwa’s KUKreg4 certification of product compliance with the water supply (water fittings) regulations for England, Scotland, and NI, GLC, GLT and GLE offer a quick, cost-effective and assured option for the replacement of vessels in ageing commercial hot water systems.

From domestic dwellings to commercial properties and large apartment blocks, the range has been designed to offer more flexible installation and improved performance compared with traditional ‘2-wire’ and ‘4-wire’ systems. The perfect solution for private dwellings and commercial projects is the Aperta IP Single Way Outdoor Station which offers a range of features and benefits, including a HD camera and full duplex audio. The simple PoE installation and IP65 ingress protection makes this small and compact outdoor station the ideal solution for domestic and commercial applications. In addition, the outdoor station includes a combined keypad and proximity reader enabling door access for users. All in all the system offers a quick and easy to install solution for customers looking to enhance the security provision on their premises.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggdgG2rOcfc QDOS gives kudos to Saniflo


ell established in the event sector, QDOS Event Hire provides high quality temporary accommodation, welfare and toilet facilities for some of the UK’s


most prestigious events, films and TV shows including Chelsea Flower Show, Goodwood and Wimbledon. The company also provides solutions for smaller events and activities working with event organisers, production companies and sporting bodies to supply high quality cabins, restrooms, modular buildings and washrooms. When it comes to the discharge of black and grey waste,


QDOS has opted to use Saniflo pumps and lifting stations to ensure that the bathroom experience is a pleasant one for event attendees. For single WC’s and accessible toilets, the Sanibest Pro is used and provides a durable unit for heavy use, commercial applications. It takes waste from both the WC and a basin and is simple to install, maintain and uninstall at the end of the event. For larger applications, such as toilet blocks and showers, a Sanicubic lifting station takes waste from varied appliances thanks to its multiple connection points and large capacity. In the run up to the festive season QDOS has installed 12 Sanicubics to take the waste away from the WC blocks at Glasgow’s Winterfest. The Sanicubics are installed inside waterproof boxes with plenty of insulation to prevent frost ingression. QDOS has been using Saniflo products for many years and sources them from Richmond’s; a local plumbing merchant. Jonathan Reid is a Regional Manager for QDOS and oversees the installation of event facilities on site; “Using Saniflo products at events is a no-brainer. Our staff are extremely experienced in installing


them so it’s a no hassle solution for us and ensures customers have better facilities at an event. Our latest product is a ‘Changing Places’ accessible toilet block. Saniflo macerators are perfect for these units because we keep the whole modular unit low to the ground for the ramp, but we still have the to pump waste away up and into a holding tank.” For some events the QDOS team is able to connect the Saniflo products to an on-site sewer,


but in the majority of cases a storage tank is used which is regularly emptied by a specialist waste removal business. “Alternative solutions, such as composting toilets are useful in low volume applications, but QDOS


tends to supply for large scale events, so we need solutions for bigger units and therefore more waste. The Sanicubic is a standout product for such events – it is powerful enough to cope with frequent use. We always choose the Saniflo brand because the products are exceptional quality, extremely robust and very powerful. They just don’t let us down.” For more information on Saniflo waste discharge solutions please visit www.saniflo.co.uk or call the in-house technical team on 020 8842 0033 who can advise on rates, flows and volumes.
