Warehouse lighting in Elgin
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Many Elgin sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Local warehouse lighting in Elgin
For Elgin sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Elgin warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
We cover the whole of Elgin, including the IV30 postcode district, and nearby places such as Lossiemouth, Mosstodloch and Forres.
