Warehouse lighting in Killearn
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. For Killearn 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 Killearn
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Killearn warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Many Killearn sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Killearn sits within Falkirk, Stirling and Clackmannanshire. We work throughout the G63 postcode district and surrounding places, including Milngavie, Bearsden and Alexandria.
