Blackpool Dungeons install ARCA from Philip Payne.

    
Philip Payne has been chosen to supply the emergency lighting for the new Blackpool Dungeons. The Dungeons have chosen the ARCA System - a brand new product designed to British Standards and produced with the type of quality you would expect from the UKs leading emergency signage company.

Blackpool’s latest attraction – The Blackpool Dungeons - will draw thousands of visitors each year and the safety of these is of the highest priority. This is why the operators of Blackpool Pleasure Beach came to Philip Payne to supply and install the new ARCA light.

Philip Payne have installed emergency lighting systems in Madame Tussauds and The London Planetarium for the parent group of the London Dungeons and The Blackpool Dungeons and the installation of the ARCA lights in Blackpool underlines the capability of Philip Payne to adapt their products to any environment and criteria.

Bridging the Emergency Lighting Quality GAP

gap.eu   
Following successes at new stores in Rome, Venice, and Milan the Philip Payne TYKE fitting is due to be installed at the soon-to-open GAP store in Turin.
There is no mystery “shrouding” the reason why the designers have stuck with TYKE for Turin as the Emergency LED downlight offers clean appearance and excellent spacings resulting in fewer lighting points, their associated savings and, most importantly, minimal impact on the design.
    
Even though the lighting design was established in the UK, Payne have worked directly with local installers on each of the Italian projects who have benefited from the simplicity of installation the product offers.
