Warehouse lighting in Musselburgh
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Many Musselburgh sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Local warehouse lighting in Musselburgh
We plan lift access in Musselburgh around your picking routes and loading times, so the warehouse keeps moving while the work is done.
For Musselburgh sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Musselburgh sits within Edinburgh and the Lothians. We work throughout the EH21, EH15 and EH22 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Portobello, Prestonpans and Dalkeith.
