Local warehouse lighting in Shipley
For Shipley sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Warehouses around Shipley 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.
Our teams travel to Shipley from across West Yorkshire. Typical nearby jobs include Baildon, Bradford and Bingley, so we can often combine survey visits.
