We are pleased to announce that our P86x and E95x luminaire ranges have officially achieved Zhaga-D4i certification, an internationally recognised assurance that lighting products meet the highest standards for interoperable, future-ready smart lighting.
As part of our ongoing “Meet the Team” series, where we highlight the dedicated individuals who keep C.U. Phosco moving forward, we meet David Skelton, Fabricator and welder based in our Westgate factory.
Street lighting infrastructure is evolving fast. What used to be a single-purpose asset is now becoming a platform for digital services that support safer, cleaner and better-connected places.
CU Phosco is pleased to announce that it is now fully approved as a Crown Commercial Service (CCS) Supplier, giving public-sector organisations a faster, lower-risk way to procure our exterior lighting and infrastructure solutions.
Our Meet the Team series continues - this time, we’re catching up with Steve Gibson, Production Manager at our Westgate facility. At CU Phosco, people are at the heart of everything we do. This series shines a spotlight on our dedicated, forward-thinking colleagues like Steve, who help drive our success every day.
What’s the best competition prize you’ve ever won? A bottle of wine in a raffle? A team night out? Maybe a gift voucher you forgot to spend? For Ben Humphrys, Operations Director at Electrical Testing Ltd, the answer is on a completely different scale. As part of CU Phosco’s 100th-anniversary celebrations in 2023, Ben was the lucky winner of our centenary competition, securing a once-in-a-lifetime trip: a two-week family holiday to Sydney, Australia. We caught up with Ben to reflect on an experience he describes as “a life event” for him and his family.
The new Cleve RFC off-field kit has officially landed – and it’s already turning heads. This season, players will step out in new pre-match and off-field gear proudly featuring the CU Phosco logo, thanks to a renewed sponsorship deal with the family-run lighting manufacturer.
Recent government plans to eliminate mobile blackspots on major rail lines highlight a national challenge — and an opportunity. Upgrading existing street furniture could provide a faster, lower-cost route to improving connectivity along Britain’s mainline train routes.
We live in a world where fast, reliable connectivity is as necessary as water, electricity or roads. Yet in many new developments, it’s still treated as an after-thought, installed once homes are already occupied. Residents move in, only to face months of poor mobile signal and patchy broadband while contractors return to dig up newly finished pavements and disturb finished landscaping. The result is entirely avoidable disruption and mess.
The HEA/HEMSA Awards 2025 were truly a huge success for CU Phosco, where we were delighted to have come away with 3 major honours: HEA/HEMSA Organisation of the Year - Large, Employee of the Year (awarded to Clare Saggs, IT Administrator), and Trainee/Apprentice of the Year (awarded to Ollie Langham). Following the unforgettable night, we had a catch up with Ollie Lamgham, our HEA Trainee/Apprentice of the Year 2025, to hear how he’s feeling in the aftermath of such an event.
