John Woodnutt, entrepreneur and inventor of electronic lighting control technology, has been awarded an MBE for services to Business and Entrepreneurship in the 2023 New Year Honours list. John pioneered lighting controls in the late 1950s and the Honour recognises his unique innovations in lighting controls and his six decades of commitment to creating smart, sustainable building solutions.
Delmatic’s smart lighting solutions seamlessly mesh wireless, wired and mixed-mode controls across physical or cloud networks, continuously monitoring, analysing and optimising lighting and sharing real-time intelligence to optimise building performance.
DALI-2 is the global standard for digital dimming, enabling devices from different manufacturers to be seamlessly integrated into interoperable networks.
We offer a wide range of DALI-2 products that can be integrated with other open protocol systems such as LON and BACnet.
Delmatic’s latest DALI system manages lighting throughout the building providing fully flexible and highly sustainable control.

Samba’s new 40-storey headquarters is located at the heart of Financial Plaza, the centrepiece of Riyadh’s new King Abdullah Financial District – a major new commercial quarter almost three times the size of London’s Canary Wharf.
The Delmatic DALI system monitors, manages and optimises lighting throughout the building, providing highly flexible, intelligent, personal and energy-efficient control through a combination of presence detection and daylight-linking. The complete installation and real-time operation is centrally monitored and managed through graphical head end software.
Creating a sustainable building in the desert heat presents numerous challenges, and the building is designed to achieve a LEED Gold rating and represent a benchmark in sustainable architecture and engineering.
Central to the building is its futuristic ‘Power Tower’, a 70m spire sitting atop the skyscraper, which harnesses Saudi sunshine and concentrates it onto photovoltaic panels. Four-storey sky-gardens punctuate the northern elevation to allow daylight to reach the atrium while indirect light is reflected deep into the office floor plates by its tessellated glass interior.
