  • The Art of Fine Lighting

    At Charter Lighting, our reputation has been built on providing the highest level of quality equipment and service for the lighting of works of Art.   Lighting products should always guarantee the conservation of artworks, while at all times ensuring the very best possible quality of light.   Nothing matters more to the faithful presentation of a work of art than the application of proper, full-spectrum illumination, and nothing detracts more – both from the aesthetic experience and even by causing physical damage – than the use of poor quality or inappropriate lighting.

In the 45 years since then the business has grown and now provides aircraft and aviation services to a worldwide client base. Continue Reading
