Warehouse lighting in Tipton
In short: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. We plan lift access in Tipton around your picking routes and loading times, so the warehouse keeps moving while the work is done.
Local warehouse lighting in Tipton
Warehouses around Tipton 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 Tipton 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.
We cover the whole of Tipton, including the DY4, DY1 and WV14 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Dudley, Wednesbury and West Bromwich.
