BJ Take Receives DLC Qualified Listings On A Major Scale

BJ Take

BJ Take Inc. now lists over 100 various products and configurations through DesignLights Consortium (DLC). Vice President of Sales, Doug Wilson stated that “the listing of these products is essential to the company’s growth” as clients now have an entire line of low to high bay lighting (8,000 to 48,000 lumens) to draw from in the lighting design process. “Although we have the low and high bays listed, we also received notification that our BLV vapour tight and the BLSP architectural strip fixtures have received the coveted DLC qualification.”

“Receiving the qualification on such a large scale demonstrates BJ Take’s commitment to delivering impactful products to the marketplace,” Wilson continued, “and the fact that the line is manufactured in Canada aids our clients and prospective clients with including our products in a specification or design with confidence knowing that speed to market is also a major consideration.”

Suzanne Kerst, Vice President of Operations for Turtleback Canada Inc., explained that “the need for a DLC listed product has never been more significant to the lighting industry. Between rebate programs and job specifications demanding the listing, architects and specifiers are clamouring to find good, quality fixtures with short manufacturing times and the flexibility to fit into the specified product mould.”

BJ Take Inc.is a manufacturer of fluorescent and LED lighting products. The company has designed and manufactured over 150 various linear fixtures and retrofit kits; http://bjtake.com.
