Warehouse lighting in Uckfield
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. For Uckfield sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Local warehouse lighting in Uckfield
In Uckfield 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.
We plan lift access in Uckfield around your picking routes and loading times, so the warehouse keeps moving while the work is done.
We cover the whole of Uckfield, including the TN22 and BN8 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Ringmer, Crowborough and Heathfield.
