BJ TAKE Inc.

Special Thanks to BJ TAKE Inc. for creating a custom-designed, four-foot retrofit, wrap lighting fixture for special use in a recent lighting project, eliminating the need to repaint the ceilings in nearly a hundred rooms.  It is this kind of ingenuity that controls project cost for IGNITE members. It also aligns with IGNITE’s mission and vision for its members. We recognize the amount of effort it took to design and build the fixture, and then to get it approved by CSA and accredited by DLC. The electrical contractor was especially impressed with the fixture. The IGNITE Team appreciates everything BJ Take did, and particularly, acknowledges Ed and Joshua Buma for going above and beyond to ensure this project became a reality. As IGNITE supports Canadian manufacturers whenever possible, IGNITE was also excited to support BJ Take, a Canadian manufacturer. Thank you for being an important part of the New Way Forward in infrastructure builds!   http://bjtake.com/
