Warehouse lighting in Eastwood
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. In Eastwood 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.
Local warehouse lighting in Eastwood
Warehouses around Eastwood 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.
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Eastwood warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
For Eastwood premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
