Warehouse lighting in Melksham
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Many Melksham sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Local warehouse lighting in Melksham
For Melksham sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
In Melksham 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 Melksham, including the SN12 postcode district, and nearby places such as Neston, Trowbridge and Bradford-on-Avon.
