Bender UK is ‘a leading supplier and maintenance provider of IPS, UPS and operating theatre equipment, including LED lighting, pendants, and touchscreen control panels’.
Bender’s critical care solutions are widely used throughout the UK, at hospitals including Alder Hey in the Park, Queen Elizabeth Hospital Glasgow, Queen Elizabeth Hospital Woolwich, Colchester General Hospital, and Furness General Hospital.
Installing advanced surgical lighting technology improves operating environments for surgeons and patients, says Bender UK’s surgical lighting specialist, national clinical sales consultant, Steve Coleman. He explained:
“The benefits of LED surgical operating lights include daylight quality light output, perfect colour, red and skin rendering, reduced running costs, maximum deep cavity illumination, wide range light field diameter, and better heat management to reduce fatigue.”

The medical team trialled Bender’s mobile LED unit over the course of a week across a range of cases – from complex orthopaedics, trauma, and gynaecology, to more minor day surgery procedures.The main benefits reported were the ease of use, reliable colour temperature, and the lightheads’ high lux level, yet compact overall footprint. We were also very impressed with the Bender team’s professional approach.”
