In the fast-evolving world of building services, lighting control has become a critical factor in achieving energy efficiency, regulatory compliance, and user comfort. For consultants, contractors, and building owners looking for a solution that balances technical sophistication with ease of use, Metway’s MCC (Modular Control Connection) lighting control range stands out as the smart choice.

Metway has built its reputation on delivering reliable, innovative electrical connection systems, and the MCC range is a natural extension of this expertise. By combining intelligent design with future-ready technology, MCC is redefining how lighting control is specified, installed, and managed.

Engineered for Simplicity and Speed

Time and cost pressures are constant on every project. Traditional lighting control systems can be slow to install, complex to configure, and costly to adapt. The MCC range eliminates these challenges with a plug-and-play modular design.

Every component is prefabricated, factory-tested, and ready to install, reducing on-site wiring errors and dramatically cutting installation times. For contractors, this means faster project delivery, fewer delays, and lower labour costs. For clients, it means smoother handover and immediate system reliability.

This emphasis on simplicity doesn’t compromise performance. MCC’s structured, modular approach provides the flexibility to expand or reconfigure easily — whether adapting to a tenant fit-out, upgrading to new technology, or meeting future compliance standards.

Smarter Control for Smarter Buildings

Modern buildings demand more than just on/off functionality. The MCC range delivers advanced lighting control strategies as standard:
• Daylight harvesting ensures artificial lighting is automatically adjusted to available natural light, reducing energy use without affecting comfort.
• Presence and absence detection cuts wasted energy in intermittently occupied areas.
• Scene setting and scheduling allows flexible lighting schemes for multifunctional spaces like classrooms, offices, and meeting rooms.

Crucially, MCC integrates seamlessly with Building Management Systems (BMS), offering centralised monitoring, reporting, and optimisation. For end users, this translates into lower running costs, enhanced comfort, and the ability to prove compliance with energy efficiency regulations.

Driving Energy Efficiency and Sustainability

Sustainability is now central to every project brief. With rising energy costs and tougher regulatory frameworks, lighting control is one of the most effective ways to reduce consumption and carbon output.

The MCC range is designed to support compliance with Part L of the Building Regulations and contribute to BREEAM and LEED certifications. By implementing automated control strategies, buildings can achieve substantial energy savings while improving environmental credentials.

Metway’s solutions also help organisations meet corporate sustainability goals by delivering measurable results. The MCC range provides a foundation for ongoing efficiency gains and can adapt as new technologies — such as IoT sensors and cloud-based analytics — become part of the built environment.

Proven Reliability and Safety

Every Metway product is backed by decades of engineering expertise and rigorous testing. The MCC lighting control range is no exception. Manufactured to the highest standards, each module is built for long-term reliability in demanding environments.

The use of factory-tested assemblies minimises risk on site, cutting down on costly remedial work and ensuring systems work exactly as designed from day one. Clients benefit from peace of mind knowing that safety, compliance, and performance are guaranteed.

Versatility Across Sectors

From education to commercial offices, healthcare to mixed-use developments, the MCC range has been proven across a wide variety of projects. Its adaptability makes it ideal for both new build and retrofit applications, where minimal disruption is a priority.

Case studies across the UK show how MCC has helped schools reduce operational costs, supported offices in delivering hybrid working environments, and enabled healthcare facilities to maintain safety and efficiency. Whatever the sector, MCC offers the same winning combination: speed of installation, reliable operation, and lasting value.

Future-Ready Innovation

As buildings become smarter, the demand for integrated, data-driven solutions will only increase. The MCC lighting control range has been designed with this in mind. Its open architecture enables integration with IoT platforms, advanced analytics, and cloud-based monitoring systems.

This positions MCC not just as a control solution, but as a future-proof investment in intelligent building infrastructure. Clients who choose Metway today can be confident that their system will remain relevant as technology and regulations evolve.
