We build more than lighting
We build relationships
Case studies
WE ENCOURAGE SUSTAINABLE AND CARBON-NEUTRAL LIGHTING BY BEING AN
Original Equipment Remanufacturer
BUT ALSO, BY PROMOTING
We only use the market-leading lighting control systems, that significantly enhance energy and cost efficiency.
Our bespoke remanufacturing kits enable in-house installation, maintenance and lighting restoration, offering a sustainable, cost-effective solution that significantly reduces transportation emissions.
Our approach promotes circular lighting by reducing CAT-A and CAT-B wastage. DRK offers rebates for CAT-A removal, repurposing it for other CAT-A sites.
Today is World Environment Day, and the 2025 theme is ‘Ending global plastic pollution’.
This is a call for collective action to hashtag#BEATPLASTICPOLLUTION, and the lighting and construction industry is a big culprit!
At DRK Lighting, we’re not just about innovation - we’re about responsibility. Here’s how we’re working to tackle the plastic problem...

AFC Wimbledon won promotion to League One, on Monday, where we shall be playing against the likes of Cardiff, Luton, Plymouth, Huddersfield and Bolton next year.
It was an amazing day at Wembley for the Wombles, beating Walsall FC 1-0 with a fantastic Myles Hippolyte strike.
DRK Lighting had 18 of our team at the match to witness history. As sponsors of the prestigious Captain’s Lounge at Plough Lane, DRK Lighting are delighted for the team and everyone at the club who have worked so hard for this outcome - Come on you Dons!

DRK Lighting was well represented in a surprisingly well-contested @afc_wimbledon sponsors game, which we won 4-2. Our MD, Darren, as Manager, demanded a lot from his side, considering their age and condition, with constant demands for ‘gegenpress’ and ‘low block’ in the same sentence.
Craig was the midfield ninja who constantly tackled and drove with the ball.
A great time was had by all, and a big thank you to AFC Wimbledon, Andrew, Alex, James and Sam, for organising such a wonderful event.
It’s not about the winning, it’s the taking part….
BUT, we did WIN! 🙌

We were proud to be one of the sponsors for @afc_wimbledon’s huge Playoff semi-final win against Notts County on Saturday — our MD Darren Roper Knight pictured with Josh Neufville, who scored the winning goal!
A 1-0 victory means we’re off to Wembley this Bank Holiday Monday to face Walsall FC for a shot at promotion to League One.
Let’s go, Wombles! 💙 Around 35,000 fans expected to make the trip — we’ll be right there with you.

Recently, DRK Lighting won the New Employer Engagement Award from @souththamescollege! Over the past year, we’ve had the pleasure of providing hands-on work experience to 16 talented electrical students. Four of them even joined us as employees over the summer to further develop their skills! ⚡
Thank you to South Thames College Group for this recognition. We’re excited to announce that DRK’s involvement in this scheme will continue next year. We’re committed to creating more impactful experience for students and nurturing the future of the electrical industry.

Having taken a well deserved 2 nil lead it was difficult to take only 1 point from this match. Especially, when what looked like a perfectly good goal for us to go further ahead was chalked off and they are awarded a dubious penalty in 97th minute.
Goals change games and referees decisions are really not going our way lately.
But away from the controversy on the pitch it was great to see DRK’s campaign for the charity @donslocalaction (DLAG) posted everywhere throughout the stadium. The QR code on all print directed straight to DLAG Justgiving page where the Wimbledon faithful could donate towards their local community outreach.

At DRK, sustainability is at the heart of what we do. From our solar-powered Chessington factory to partnering with local charities, we’re committed to making a difference. This year, we took a huge step by purchasing four acres in Powys, Wales, called Hope Meadow, to begin our rewilding journey and offset our carbon footprint. Our team recently planted 200 native trees, supporting local wildlife and fostering biodiversity. This is just the beginning! 🌿🌳
