SPONSORED FEATURE TM66 circular economy guidance and building competence take centre stage at Light2Perform CIBSEs circular economy guidance TM66 and building competence around emergency lighting are two key areas being tackled at Light2Perform by headline sponsor Tamlite Lighting. The event takes place at ExCeL London on 5 and 6 December, as part of CIBSE Build2Perform Live L ight2Perform, organised by the Society of Light and Lighting with support from headline sponsor Tamlite Lighting, is taking place as part of CIBSEs flagship Build2Perform Live event at Londons ExCeL on 5 and 6 December. Tamlites presence at the two-day event is centred on two of the most significant drivers for change impacting the lighting industry: CIBSEs TM66 Creating a circular economy in the lighting industry guidance, and building competence levels in the design and specification of emergency lighting. Focus on TM66 With a focus on tools for sustainability, Light2Perform is the perfect platform to explore TM66, which has emerged as a groundbreaking initiative within the lighting industry by promoting circularity and sustainable practices. By providing a standardised framework for verifying the circular credentials of lighting products, TM66 enhances transparency, credibility and trust within the industry. Tamlite Lighting is a founding member of the TM66 Assured Beta team for circular economy luminaire assessments. Product verification The TM66 scheme is playing a vital role in revolutionising the lighting industry and driving it towards a more circular and environmentally responsible future. Launched in 2023, the TM66 Assured Product Verification Scheme is an initiative developed and fulfilled by the Lighting Industry Association (LIA), and endorsed by CIBSE. The scheme provides an additional layer of credibility and verification to the already comprehensive TM66 toolkit. To date, Tamlite has achieved TM66 Assured Product Verification on more than 20 of its products, including the Revo Sport, a highoutput luminaire for sports halls that achieved one of the highest scores awarded by the LIA. Debbie-Sue Farrell, head of wellbeing and marketing manager at Tamlite Lighting, sees TM66 as central to the companys focus on sustainable solutions: By actively participating in the TM66 scheme, Tamlite is demonstrating its commitment to advancing the adoption of environmentally friendly practices in the lighting industry. The aim is to assist consultants and specifiers in making informed choices when it comes to selecting sustainable luminaires. We are delighted to support Light2Perform, which provides a vital platform for professionals to build their understanding of circularity, responsible specification, and good practice.

Right across the supply chain from lighting designer, architect and consultant to electrical contractor, facilities manager and building manager professionals need to stay fully up to speed with the latest guidance and regulations in this area, as well as demonstrate competence. To support specifiers, Tamlite is presenting its CIBSE-approved CPD module, Common pitfalls with emergency lighting compliance, at Light2Perform.
