Daylight calculations
Part of good daylight advice for any room is the design check with a light calculation. With this calculation we can calculate and visualise the illuminance and also assess whether it meets the requirements. Use is made of light calculation programs such as DIALux. The result is a complete daylight plan.

BREAAM and LEED
BREAAM
Our Powerdaylight daylight tubes are an ideal solution to meet BREEAM daylight requirements. These innovative systems efficiently channel natural light into interior spaces, reducing the need for artificial lighting and supporting energy efficiency. When integrated into the building design, Powerdaylight systems enhance employee well-being and contribute to a sustainable working environment. Using DialuxEVO, we provide detailed simulations and evidence to demonstrate compliance with daylight factor standards, ensuring optimal performance and alignment with BREEAM certification criteria.
LEED
Powerdaylight® Daylighting Tubes provide an innovative solution for sustainability by contributing to LEED certification through the USGBC. Thanks to their direct impact on sustainable design, our products can help buildings earn LEED points in several categories, including Indoor Environmental Quality, Energy and Atmosphere, and Innovation in Design.
WELL Building Standard
The "WELL Building Standard" focuses on the health and well-being of people in the built environment. The idea behind the founders is to stimulate the construction industry to create structures where people can live, work and learn healthily. Not only employees, but also employers benefit from a healthy working environment. 90% of the total operational costs consist of personnel costs. The working environment has a direct influence on, for example, productivity and absenteeism.
To obtain the WELL certificate, various health standards must be met. Seven different areas are tested, namely air, water, nutrition, light, vitality, comfort and a healthy mind. Techcomlight offers help in the field of, how could it be otherwise, "light". This area can be divided into 13 different elements, each of which we can advise on.
Cradle to Cradle
Do you have a project where Cradle to Cradle certified products are used or do you want to collaborate with companies that work in the same way as you in the context of environmental awareness? Which can! Take a closer look at your own business premises to see where improvements can be made. Are your daylight products biodegradable and can they be recycled? You can always contact one of our daylight professionals.
