Warehouse lighting in Tonypandy
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. We plan lift access in Tonypandy around your picking routes and loading times, so the warehouse keeps moving while the work is done.
Local warehouse lighting in Tonypandy
In Tonypandy 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.
Many Tonypandy sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Tonypandy is one of the larger places we cover, covered by postcode districts CF40, CF39 and CF41. We regularly work across Mid Glamorgan, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
