Warehouse lighting in New Milton
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. For New Milton 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 New Milton
In New Milton 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.
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in New Milton warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
