Decorative LED Lighting Solutions for Sun City

Sun International ’ s prestigious Sun City Resort is in the process of upgrading the walkway lighting in their gardens , as well as the lighting in their parking areas . BEKA Schréder is proud to have supplied quality LED lighting solutions for this project .

Sun International ’ s renowned Sun City Resort consists of four hotels , a time-share option as well as a casino , and borders the Pilanesberg Nature Reserve . Due to the large size of this resort , energy saving solutions are a priority . The resort ’ s streetlighting has already been successfully upgraded to LED technology using BEKA Schréder products , and the next areas under review were the walkway and parking area lighting . LED technology seemed to be the obvious choice due to its low maintenance , low energy consumption and high-performance characteristics .

BEKA Schréder ’ s locally designed and manufactured LEDpost bollards gracefully enhance the walkways in the areas between the Gary Player Country Club , the Soho hotel and the Cabanas , as well as in the forest outside of the elegant Cascades hotel . The green LEDposts blend in elegantly with their surroundings , and their distinct design shields pedestrians from glare and prevents spill light from being emitted in an upward direction .
