Warehouse lighting in Newtimber
In short: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Loading bays in Newtimber need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Local warehouse lighting in Newtimber
In Newtimber 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.
Many Newtimber sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Our teams travel to Newtimber from across West Sussex. Typical nearby jobs include Clayton, Portslade and Hove, so we can often combine survey visits.
