Also shortlisted within the Award for Urban Lighting categorym Essex Street Steps featuring their illuminated LED handrail Garda (a product highly commended at this year’s Lighting Design Awards).

Managing Director Terry Dean commented ‘being shortlisted for the Lux and Ecolight Environmental Manufacturer of the Year Award is an extremely rewarding achievement for all at DW Windsor. As a UK Manufacturer we feel it is our responsibility to steer customers towards sustainable product choices.

'DWW’s vision is to ultimately become a zero landfill business with a number of initiatives in the pipeline to align environmental responsibility and integrity at the heart of our business philosophy.'
