Local warehouse lighting in Wincanton
Warehouses around Wincanton 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.
In Wincanton 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.
Our teams travel to Wincanton from across Somerset. Typical nearby jobs include Templecombe, Bruton and Castle Cary, so we can often combine survey visits.
