What Collingwood Lighting does

Collingwood Lighting is a UK-based designer and manufacturer of LED luminaires serving residential, commercial, industrial, and landscape applications. The company has specialised in LED technology since 2002 and operates from Northampton/Sywell with 51-100 employees, claiming multiple industry firsts including colour switchable downlights, IP68 waterproof inground lighting, mains dimmable LEDs, fire-rated downlights, and 360 degree spherical downlights.

Its product portfolio spans indoor categories (anti-corrosives, architectural, battens, bulkheads, decorative, downlights, highbay, lowbay, panels, strip, surface/suspended, track), outdoor categories (bollards, feature lights, floodlights, ground lights, spike lights, step lights, uplights, wall lights), the Salvus emergency lighting family, and an accessories range (drivers, colour change controls, connectors, profiles). Underlying technology centres on LED with proprietary differentiation in efficiency (130lm/W floodlights vs 80lm/W industry average), longevity (70,000-hour lifespan on outdoor SKUs), COB/dot-free strip, and multi-voltage LED strip (24V/48V/230V). Control integration includes Casambi wireless, DALI/DMX, Bluetooth, PIR, and photocell sensors.

The business model is B2B hardware sales executed exclusively through UK electrical wholesale stockists including City Electrical Factors, YESSS Electrical, Denmans, Lancashire Electrical Dist, and T N Robinson. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; commercial products carry a standard 5-year warranty with extended options up to 10 years and a two-year onsite warranty for commercial buyers. Next-day direct-to-site delivery for orders before 3pm is a core service differentiator. End customers span contractors, architects, interior designers, housebuilders, and end users across residential, hospitality, healthcare, education, sports/retail, and historic property segments.
