Experience
Established in 1985
Founded in 1985 in London, Tornado Lighting has spent close to four decades perfecting the art of handcrafting plaster lights.
Our mission is clear: to create beautifully crafted, high-quality light fittings that combine traditional techniques with cutting-edge, energy-efficient technology.
Modern Manufacturing
UK Designed & Manufactured
Despite retaining many traditional artisan manufacturing processes, we also strive to incorporate modern technology and design methods into our process.
We provide simple, modern, and timeless designs that not only look stunning but also stand the test of time. While plaster remains our core material, we also incorporate other natural, earthy materials like wood into our designs.
Handcrafted
Made by Artisans
Each light is carefully made by skilled artisans, combining traditional techniques with modern innovations to ensure exceptional quality.
By keeping our manufacturing in-house, we guarantee uncompromising quality that reflects our commitment to craftsmanship, sustainability and long-lasting design.
Modern Technology
All of our light fittings come equipped with modern, energy saving LED light sources. Fittings feature high quality and thoroughly tried-and-tested components.
We also offer a variety of optional add-ons for many of our fittings, including proximity sensors, emergency packs, and DALI interfaces, an offering much appreciated by architects and design professionals.
Future Proofing
Unlike many general vendors, we are dedicated to the long-term needs of our customers. We don’t make models unavailable simply because trends change. All plaster shells and components are available as individual spare parts going throughout the entire range.
Our focus is on providing durable, reliable lighting solutions that stand the test of time. Our designs are crafted for easy removal, making servicing and installation hassle-free, ensuring your lights remain functional and elegant for years to come.
Sustainabilty
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Our plaster is domestically sourced from British Gypsum, a naturally occurring biodegradable material. 90% of our packaging is recycled.
We only use the most efficient LED lighting, reducing energy consumption by up to 90%.
By combining traditional handcrafting techniques with eco-friendly materials and processes, we aim to minimise our environmental impact.
