Local warehouse lighting in Kelso
Many Kelso sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Kelso warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Kelso sits within the Scottish Borders. We work throughout the TD5 postcode district and surrounding places, including Greenlaw, Cornhill-on-Tweed and Jedburgh.
