In short: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Loading bays in Carterton need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Local warehouse lighting in Carterton
In Carterton 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.
Warehouses around Carterton 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.
We cover the whole of Carterton, including the OX18 postcode district, and nearby places such as Witney, Eynsham and Shellingford.
