Warehouse lighting in Newmarket
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Available across Newmarket and Cambridgeshire. In Newmarket 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.
Local warehouse lighting in Newmarket
For Newmarket sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Loading bays in Newmarket need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
For Newmarket premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
