Warehouse lighting in Milton Keynes
What we do in Milton Keynes: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. In Milton Keynes distribution units the key is the optic. Narrow-beam fittings down each aisle put light on the rack faces where pickers need it, rather than on the top of the racking.

Loading bays in Milton Keynes need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Many Milton Keynes sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
