Speedy has launched a new lighting system aimed at supporting construction workers.

The K41, developed in partnership with Ritelite Systems, is designed to meet the needs of nighttime work sites by minimising light pollution through optimised power efficiency.

The K41 creates more light with less energy input. This is achieved through incorporating technologies such as automatic activation and programmable sensors. For example, the light can be set to operate at full power for ten minutes upon activation, then reduce to a lower output for a set duration before switching off entirely.  

The product was recently unveiled at  'Ticket to Innovate' event. The new equipment will be deployed across large-scale sites, with hopes to be included in national infrastructure kit and wider. 

Commenting on the launch, Daryl Doherty, rail director, Speedy Hire said: “The K41 represents a significant step forward in lighting innovation, designed to meet the sector’s unique needs with greater efficiency, flexibility, and sustainability. At Speedy Hire, we are committed to providing and driving cutting-edge, environmentally sustainable solutions for our customers, and we are excited about future innovation to help the sector achieve Net Zero.” 

While Ritelite Systems MD Marcus Batty added: “The K41 is a fantastic example of the collaborative work between Speedy Hire and Ritelite to create improved equipment. Our goal was simple: to ‘achieve more from less’- delivering more illuminated work area and greater flexibility of light output, while using less power, less weight & less size. This is not the first product to come from our collaborative approach, and it certainly won’t be the last.” 

Other site lighting solutions are of course available. Find out what's different/better about the K41 right here.
