LCC lighting innovates to deliver excellence in lighting up the Broadcast Industry.

Global Broadcast Industry news spoke to Lee Rickard of LCC Lighting

Can you tell why LCC stands out in the UK Broadcast lighting sector?

“In one word innovation, we believe we are the most innovative lighting company in the UK, all of our solutions are unique, just like the people we work for. With nearly 25 years’ experience in all forms of lighting we deliver outstanding value and technical expertise to all areas of industry, not just Broadcast.

From initial discussions to hand over, we will deliver the project on time, on budget and we will, if at all possible, exceed customer expectations. We will always suggest ways to enhance the project and increase flexibility and usability of the end result.”

You say innovation is a key part of your business model could you expand a little on this?

“We are always on the lookout for products and equipment that can be integrated into the customers space to add to the production possibilities that can be achieved. In many cases the enhancements have little or no impact on the budgetary or technical constraints of the project.”
