Helvar Appoints New Commercial Systems Sales Manager

    Helvar has appointed Mike Shaw to the position of Sales Manager Commercial Systems. Shaw joins Helvar from the iLight division of Polaron controls and has been in the building management and lighting control systems industry for over 20 years.

    Shaw is an Incorporated Engineer (IEng), and a member of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (MIET), he has held senior positions with some of the leading controls manufacturers in the UK (including ECS Philips Lighting controls among others).

    "I have joined Helvar because they are a leading supplier of high quality lighting control systems and ballasts for fluorescent lighting, and because I believe in the customer and quality focused Helvar ethos,' explains Mike, 'They are a friendly company to work for and do business with."

    With the launch of Helvar's new DIGIDIM Router, Shaw is looking forward to expanding Helvar's traditional market in architectural controls into the commercial office sector. The recent release of the new Helvar
    DALI Router and Designer software provides a DALI solution that is fast to install, cost effective, scalable and flexible; suitable for small commercial units through to large corporate headquarters. It simplifies the installation process and removes the need for the traditional Lighting Control Module (LCM) - lighting can now be wired as circuits or using simple low cost pluggable distribution boxes whilst providing individual luminaire control.
