Warehouse lighting in Chelsea
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Chelsea warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Local warehouse lighting in Chelsea
Many Chelsea sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Warehouses around Chelsea 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 Chelsea premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
