Natta Installs Solar Bollard Lighting to Enhance Child Safety on Pathway
Natta Building Company partnered with Prolectric to deliver a safe, sustainable lighting solution for a new pedestrian pathway linking a housing development to a nearby school. The priority was clear — provide reliable illumination for children and parents walking in darker hours, without introducing the disruption or cost of mains-powered infrastructure.
Prolectric supplied and commissioned 96 solar-powered ST Bollards, delivering low-level, off-grid lighting that complemented the pathway’s residential setting. The bollards operate 100% on renewable energy, with zero cabling required, reducing environmental impact and installation complexity.
Challenges
- Safety and security: Reliable lighting was essential to keep children safe during early mornings and evenings.
- Design sensitivity: The client required low-level, non-glare lighting to maintain a welcoming community atmosphere.
- Availability pressures: High demand for solar bollards created scheduling challenges that required proactive coordination.
The Solution
Following a competitive tender, Prolectric’s solar ST Bollards were selected for their proven year-round performance and durable design. To support project delivery, Prolectric provided commissioning services and stepped in to install and commission the final 20 units at no additional cost, ensuring the pathway opened safely and on schedule.
Results
- Enhanced safety: The new pathway is now safely lit for children and parents travelling between home and school.
- Sustainability in action: 100% solar power removed the need for cabling and eliminated carbon emissions during operation.
- Community benefit: A welcoming, well-lit environment now connects the housing development with the school.
- Partnership approach: Prolectric’s flexibility and complimentary installation support kept the project on track.
