CASE STUDIES

A lighting upgrade is a natural step for facilities wishing to reducing carbon, cut back on energy consumption or improve light quality. Addressing the lighting provides a minimum disruption option with a quick payback - typically around eighteen months.
​
Lighting design for manufacturing and production requires a different approach to spaces such as warehousing, as there tends to be more activity below and layout tends to be less uniform. Daylight harvest is a great automation option for manufacturing and can boost savings significantly if a facility has pre-existing skylights or windows.
Brief
Replacing older style lanterns 1:1 is usually an inaccurate strategy for retrofitting a commercial space – particularly in high bay areas. It’s also crucial to use luminaires which have been designed with your working environment in mind; vibration, prolonged use and atmospheric dust can all significantly reduce the functionality and life expectancy of generic LED luminaires.
​
Floor space, function, ceiling height, frequency of use, and the position and placement of static and moving fixtures and assets all affect the design of a lighting scheme. A layout which worked with high pressure sodium or halogen lanterns typically doesn’t work effectively with high quality LED luminaires, as light intensity, distribution and directionality are usually very different.
