What we do in Birkenhead: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Birkenhead warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Local warehouse lighting in Birkenhead
Many Birkenhead sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Loading bays in Birkenhead need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Birkenhead sits within Merseyside. We work throughout the CH41, CH42 and L2 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Liverpool, Kensington and Wallasey.
