Warehouse lighting in Rothwell
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. For Rothwell sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Local warehouse lighting in Rothwell
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Rothwell warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
In Rothwell 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.
Rothwell is a smaller community with its own businesses, covered by postcode districts LS26, LS10 and WF3. We regularly work across West Yorkshire, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
