Our services guarantee reliable and durable lighting for the long term. Our services range from carrying out design to inspecting large-scale lighting projects for industrial sites and terminals. We ensure efficient and reliable installation that meets the highest standards of quality and safety.

Our certified installers and maintenance technicians are always ready to ensure your lighting installations operate at their highest level. With regular maintenance, we help reduce energy costs and extend the lifespan of your equipment. We apply the latest techniques and innovations to offer you the most advanced solutions. Our dedicated and expert teams are ready for you, regardless of the complexity of your project.

Step 1

Inventory

We begin with a thorough analysis of your situation, needs, and working conditions—whether it's a new installation or taking over and maintaining an existing one. We assess the current lighting and installation, measure light levels and uniformity on-site, and map out the condition, risks, and savings opportunities. At the same time, we inventory the applicable standards (such as NEN-EN 12464) and the operational requirements of your environment, so we have a complete picture of your needs.

Step 2

Concept design

Based on the inventory, we create a tailor-made plan for installation and maintenance. For new or modified installations, we determine the correct fixtures, positions, and light distribution using professional lighting calculations and 3D simulations (including Dialux); for existing installations, we identify what needs to be replaced, improved, or periodically maintained. The plan is energy-efficient, complies with current regulations, and enhances workplace safety, including substantiation of the expected energy and maintenance benefits.

Step 3

Preparation and research

Before we start construction, we detail the project. We will create an assembly plan, schedule, and materials list, coordinate with your operational processes, and conduct a site visit if necessary. Key considerations such as accessibility, working at heights, connections, and the required safety measures (VCA) will be established in advance, ensuring the execution proceeds smoothly, safely, and without surprises.

Step 4

Final design

Based on the preparatory work, we will finalize the design: exact fixtures, mounting details, fastening method, wiring, and any control or emergency lighting. You will receive a clear and complete execution design, including planning and agreements. Only after your approval will we start the installation, so you know exactly what will be installed and what you can expect.

Step 5

Installation work

Our own VCA-certified technicians handle the complete installation on-site. We professionally place, assemble, align, and connect all fixtures and components, according to the final design and applicable standards. We work safely, neatly, and with minimal disruption to your business operations, even in demanding industrial, maritime, and outdoor environments.

Step 6

Control work and installation verification

After installation, we will inspect and test the complete setup. We will measure the achieved light levels and uniformity, verify these against the design and standards (such as NEN-EN 12464), and test the functionality of controls and safety features. We will document the results in a clear commissioning report with measurement data and documentation, so you have written confirmation that the installation performs as agreed.

Step 7

Control and maintenance

We remain involved even after delivery. Through periodic inspections and preventive maintenance, we keep your installation reliable and efficient throughout its entire lifespan. We identify wear and tear in a timely manner, resolve malfunctions quickly, and make adjustments based on usage and changing requirements. This ensures you of continuous performance, a long service life, and complete peace of mind.

Maintenance & Service

Reliable in management, not just in installation

An installation is only truly valuable if it continues to perform reliably year after year. That's why we also take care of maintenance – whether we installed it ourselves or took over from a third party. You choose what suits you: a fixed maintenance contract for complete peace of mind, or maintenance and service on demand.

Fast when there's a breakdown

In case of a malfunction, we are ready to assist you with short, agreed-upon response times. Our own VCA technicians will resolve problems effectively, ensuring your operations experience minimal downtime.

Maintenance on contract or on call

Choose a fixed maintenance contract with periodic inspections and complete peace of mind, or call us on demand when it suits you. Always with clear agreements and transparent reporting.

Preventive rather than reactive

With scheduled inspections, we identify wear and tear and risks before they cause breakdowns. This extends the lifespan of your installation and keeps energy consumption and performance at optimal levels.

Our success stories

From initial installation to long-term maintenance: we design and manage lighting systems in demanding industrial, maritime, and outdoor environments. Our clients value our expert execution, the safe working methods of our in-house VCA-certified technicians, and the tangible difference in the reliability and performance of their installations. View some of our projects to see how we approach this in practice.

A prime example is the complete LED installation we carried out for the DFDS port terminal in Vlaardingen, which reduced the terminal’s lighting energy consumption by 53%. We handled the entire process, from engineering and installation to commissioning and maintenance. This demonstrates how our approach ensures a safe, energy-efficient, and long-term reliable installation. For more success stories and our solutions, visit our projects page.

Installation of terminal lighting near UNESCO — BUSS Terminal

For BUSS Terminal, we realized a complete lighting system for a large-scale transshipment site. The project included engineering, infrastructure and installation of high masts up to 50 meters. The installation was realized for 24/7 operations in a demanding port environment with a focus on reliability and light quality. From design to realization, we delivered a fully integrated solution.

LED Conversion and Maintenance of Terminal Lighting — P&O Ferries
For P&O Ferries, we upgraded the entire grounds lighting system at the ferry terminal in Europoort. A previous LED installation using sports-style fixtures did not meet the port’s requirements, so JEL designed and delivered a new solution tailored to the environment, featuring highly directional DarkLicht fixtures mounted on 30 new mast structures. Thanks to better beam control and reduced light spill, more usable light was provided on the grounds, with approximately 66% less energy consumption. The entire project, including the mast structures, was completed in just two weeks at a terminal that remained fully operational throughout.

Installation and maintenance of terminal lighting — DFDS Seaways

For DFDS, we modernized the terminal lighting in two phases, with first a new installation in 2021 and later a full LED upgrade in 2023. The installation at the terminal was deployed to reduce energy consumption and improve visibility and safety on site. The project required phased implementation by expanding the terminal without disrupting operational terminal operations. The result is a future-proof lighting installation for continuous operation.
