Local warehouse lighting in Stowupland
In Stowupland 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.
For Stowupland sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
We cover the whole of Stowupland, including the IP14 postcode district, and nearby places such as Stowmarket, Hemingstone and Hessett.

Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Is the price fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.
Do you need to shut the warehouse?
No. We plan lift access around your picking routes and usually work at night, at weekends or across quieter shifts.
