Warehouse lighting in Redcar
What we do in Redcar: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Warehouses around Redcar 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.
Local warehouse lighting in Redcar
For Redcar 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 Redcar warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Redcar sits within North Yorkshire. We work throughout the TS10 and TS11 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Saltburn Marske and New Marske, Skelton and Guisborough.
