At Screen Manchester we know that when tight turnarounds and last-minute changes are part of the job, you need suppliers who don’t just understand your world, they work to keep you one step ahead of it. Ultra LEDs tick every box and that is why they are this month’s Facility of the Month.
Based in Manchester, Ultra LEDs is the go-to lighting partner for production professionals across the North West’s growing screen sector and beyond, offering an extensive range of high-quality LED lighting products with expert support, fast delivery, and the technical reliability you need to get the job done right, first time.
Ultra LEDs has built a reputation for providing lighting solutions that are both dependable and flexible, ideal for use across studio environments, location shoots, and theatre productions. From powering complex control systems to supplying simple, well-priced tape and drivers at volume, the team understands the demands of production work and how to support electricians, gaffers, and crews working at pace.
Ultra LEDs support productions of every size, from quick-turnaround commercials, the biggest reality shows, and high-end episodic dramas, including Love Island and Black Mirror.
Designed for Set, Built for Performance
Whether you’re installing a temporary setup or building a more permanent rig, the Ultra LEDs product range is designed with production professionals in mind.
Key product ranges to highlight:
- NEW Precision LED Strip Light: recently launched and developed specifically for TV & Film professionals. Ultra High CRI for true-to-life colour, and super bright output.

Ultra LEDs also have a huge range of LED controllers available, and quick connectors and cables to keep client installations moving fast.
All products are available for next-day delivery, with strong stock levels ensuring customers are never left waiting, even when the schedule is already tight.
Technical Support That Keeps You Moving
While many of Ultra LEDs’ customers are experienced technicians and designers, the company also supports production teams with more generalist needs. The in-house technical team is always on hand to offer fast, reliable advice, whether that’s helping specify the right tape for a backlit panel, advising on profile compatibility, or offering alternatives when time is tight and stock is limited.
It’s a proactive approach that’s earned the trust of crews and contractors alike.
Bespoke production for demanding projects
For projects with custom requirements, Ultra LEDs’ on-site production facility can create bespoke lighting set-ups for clients whether they need support with custom fittings and assembly to save time on-location or system design & programming.
Convenient. Responsive. Reliable.
Ultra LEDs’ 17,000 sq ft facility just outside Manchester houses not only a comprehensive warehouse operation but a full-service team who understand the realities of working in live production. From small teams pulling together last-minute shoots to large-scale installations on tight schedules, the goal is always the same: deliver the right products, at the right time, to help the job go smoothly.
It’s lighting supply, done properly.
