Transforming Lighting at Canadian College Surrey Campus With Mac’s II Agencies

August 19, 2024

In collaboration with AES Engineering, Blueline Electrical Services LTD., and Mac’s II Agencies, EB Horsman played the role of the distributor for the Canadian College Surrey Campus lighting project.

Canadian College’s Surrey Central Campus is set to enhance students’ career prospects in business, hospitality, and project management with its newly refreshed space.

The Metalux luminaires by Cooper Lighting Solutions transformed the Surrey Campus. These center basket LED troffers provide exceptional, uniform luminance while preserving visual comfort. Expertly integrated into the modern, revitalized interior designed by 34F Design, they create an environment tailored to support a robust educational foundation for students. Strategically placed in common areas, corridors, and lecture-based classrooms, the Metalux troffers exemplify a seamless blend of form and function. Beyond their high-performance efficiency, these fixtures are also renowned for reducing energy costs by 60% compared to traditional fluorescent troffers.

With this successful lighting upgrade, Canadian College Surrey Campus is now better equipped to provide an inspiring and energy-efficient environment that fosters student success for years to come.
