Warehouse lighting in Grays
What we do in Grays: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. For Grays 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 Grays
In Grays 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.
Many Grays sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Our teams travel to Grays from across Essex. Typical nearby jobs include Swanscombe, South Ockendon and Gravesend, so we can often combine survey visits.
