Legrand UK has added DALI motion sensors and control devices to its product range. The move responds to growing pressure on facility managers to cut energy consumption and comply with tightened EU building efficiency standards (EPBD).
DALI-2 compatible systems enable precise lighting control based on occupancy and daylight levels. This reduces consumption in office spaces, retail environments, and industrial facilities where lighting often runs unnecessarily. The technology integrates with existing building management systems without requiring major rewiring.
For electrical contractors and systems integrators, the expanded portfolio simplifies specification. DALI standardisation means devices from multiple manufacturers work together, reducing lock-in risk and supporting retrofit projects where legacy systems remain in place. As energy audits become routine compliance requirements, clients increasingly expect professionals to propose measurable efficiency gains—DALI-based solutions deliver both.
The expansion positions Legrand UK alongside competitors offering comparable smart controls. Adoption remains selective in UK commercial buildings, but EPBD deadlines and volatile energy costs are accelerating interest. Contractors now face customer expectations for intelligent lighting as standard specification, not premium add-on.
