crime reducing street lightingResearch carried out during the 1990s showed that criminals do take account of potential levels of security and location features, including escape routes and visibility to witnesses when assessing the risk of being caught. It is generally accepted, therefore, that good lighting does have a positive impact on the rate of crime and this is enhanced by the use of Full Spectrum (or white) light sources.

By providing good colour rendering and enhanced uniformity, full spectrum light sources have a significant role to play, particularly when introduced into relatively poorly lit residential estates.

WRTL´s range of lanterns offers the availability of the most up-to-date light sources for maximum impact with the greatest economy.
