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 systems manage and monitor lighting throughout the building demonstrating the versatility of DALI technology across a site-wide platform.

The BREEAM Excellent building achieves high standards of sustainability and has been awarded two prestigious BREEAM innovation credits. Incorporating elements such as energy-efficient systems and solar panels, the development also features the UK’s largest landscaped roofs, where wildflowers and other plants create a wildlife haven at the heart of Greenwich town centre.
The control of the lighting plays a key role in meeting the strict energy efficiency targets, and the Delmatic system controls lighting throughout the building using different control strategies in different areas.
Many of the areas use suspended luminaires, with Delmatic’s DALI buswire modules enabling individual addressing, switching and dimming of the luminaires via a common DALI buswire. Delmatic’s pure DALI system enabled not only the individual addressing switching, dimming and monitoring of DALI luminaires along a single buswire, but also the connection of DALI presence detectors and multisensors to the same DALI buswire so halving the amount of control cabling to be supplied and installed.
DALI multisensors and presence detectors are used throughout the project, many of them mounted within the suspended luminaires, to provide presence-related control and dimming in relation to daylight levels at the perimeters of the building.
Delmatic DALI scene-set panels are used extensively to provide local scene selection and adjustment of lighting levels while solenoid water valves in the toilets are switched via a Delmatic DALI One Relay which relates water use to occupancy of toilets. The DALI system manages, tests and monitors emergency lighting throughout the building including plant rooms where general lighting is not linked to the control system.
