Warehouse lighting in Port Glasgow
What we do in Port Glasgow: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Port Glasgow warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Local warehouse lighting in Port Glasgow
Many Port Glasgow sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
In Port Glasgow 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.
Port Glasgow is a local centre, covered by postcode districts PA14, PA15 and PA13. We regularly work across Renfrewshire and Inverclyde, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
