Warehouse lighting in Bakewell
What we do in Bakewell: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. In Bakewell 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.
