The revolution in outdoor lighting
Experience the difference of a truly handcrafted outdoor light. At Hudson Lighting they are proud to bring British manufacturing back to life.
Every single piece is handmade from start to finish in our state-of-the-art factory in Surrey, UK. From CNC turning and milling the raw materials to anodizing and final assembly, we oversee every step of the process to ensure the highest quality and unparalleled craftsmanship in every product we produce.
Before delivery, each outdoor light is immersed in a water pipe to test for leaks.
With only 16 variants of outdoor lights, Hudson Lighting creates a unique variety - the revolution in outdoor lighting because each variant can be equipped with 3 different light intensities.
1W LED chip = 186lm which corresponds to a 20W halogen bulb.
2W = 320lm which corresponds to a classic 35W bulb.
3W = 520lm, approximately equivalent to a 60W halogen bulb.
Hudson LED chips can be replaced at any time. You can easily adapt the outdoor lighting to the evolution of the plants without needing new lights.
Four housing colors are available as standard, black, Nato green, bronze and Corten. Any RAL housing color is available upon request and at an additional cost.
The anodized and coated aluminum is already very durable. Any housing made from chrome steel, copper, bronze and brass is available on request.
From the founder - Chris Hudson
Previously as an electrician, I had been installing outdoor lighting for prestigious landscape gardening companies for 8 years.
Warranties of the light fittings were always honoured, sometimes resulting in return rates of up to 8 visits within a year; due to spike and ground lights ingressing water. It didn't matter what end of the budget spectrum the fittings were from, the problem persisted.
In 2017, I decided enough was enough. Previously he had created custom fittings for different clients in 2011 (under Hudson Lighting) - still working to this day.
Prototypes were designed and initially, 3D printed and then later machined and tested within gardens - the difference, these fittings are all completely submersible.
Every light fitting is subjected to underwater testing to be sure it's watertight. After this test, we can be sure that the fitting will last within an outdoor environment for years to come.
The lights are manufactured completely in our own workshop in Surrey, England, everything from the turning of stainless steel and aluminum on a lathe to assembling the printed circuit board.
We run the latest Nakamura lathe and are able to accommodate custom requests up to 65mm in diameter and most materials. If you are looking for a custom fitting, please get in touch.
Currently, other than myself, there is Max, Liam, Jordan & Patrick. We've just recently relocated to a much larger premises then we had (still small in comparison to allot of places but huge for us!). We have a show room on site which is being develeoped bit by bit
We have recently begun our 2s lean journey along with Business coaching from RLC (Run like clockwork). You can see updates of that most days on our YouTube channel.
