Warehouse lighting in Cheltenham
What we do in Cheltenham: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Warehouses around Cheltenham often still run 400 W metal halide or sodium high bays that take minutes to strike up. LED comes on instantly and usually uses less than half the power.

For Cheltenham sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Many Cheltenham sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
For Cheltenham premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
