Philip Payne Ltd

Philip Payne Limited was established in 1968 and since this time has provided specialist and bespoke lighting products from a number of locations in the Solihull area as it has steadily grown. With stylish European alternatives often out of reach both in cost and availability, building designs are often compromised in an attempt to meet legal prerequisites on time and on budget.

Philip Payne joined FW Thorpe as an emergency lighting specialist in 1996. As a producer of decorative lighting and chandeliers, Philip Payne changed its direction in the 1980s towards emergency lighting. Since then, the Solihull factory in Great Britain has produced high-quality emergency lighting that belongs to the top of the English market. Both the luminaires for escape route lighting and escape route signs can be found in various applications in health care, museums, hotels and office buildings.

Philip Payne offers a backbone range of quality standard products but more importantly encourage direct dialogue with architects and designers to ensure via product variation or bespoke work aesthetic aspirations and requirements are fully met. In more recent years the company has focused on the quality end of the market forging strong relationships with many leading architectural building services and engineering practices resulting in the supply of products to many of the UK’s most iconic building projects often designing products specifically for individual projects.

The Philip Payne product warranty offered to customers covers a period of 6 years, with no get-out clauses concerning the number of burning hours or maintenance requirements, and no convoluted registration process.
