Warehouse lighting in Looe

From offices to warehouses, we handle warehouse lighting for Looe businesses. Every job starts with a survey and ends with testing, certification and a clear fitting schedule.

Warehouse lighting in Looe

LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Many Looe sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.

Local warehouse lighting in Looe

In Looe 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.

Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Looe warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.

For Looe premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
