Factors to Consider in Warehouse & Distribution Center Lighting

If someone said you could cut costs up to 90% and become more efficient, wouldn’t you jump? “Show me!”

That is the potential savings using energy saving and long lasting LED lighting. Warehouse & distribution center lighting can be a daunting task considering that these tend to be large buildings, which need a great amount of lighting, temperature control and maintenance. Often, these facilities have to run 24/7.

warehouseWarehouses can also save on maintenance costs. Common lighting systems will erode over time and dim and darken what can be seen and illuminated and create unsafe situations. Think about how a low light looks with bugs crawling on it. With efficient LED lighting systems there won’t be as many maintenance calls because the lighting is built to last over a much longer period to time. Another interesting fact is the more usage you have, the sooner you will see a return on investment. For example, a facility running lighting for 16 hours a day will wait just under three years to see the return, while a warehouse operating 24/7 will see the return in less than two years. Want to add an annex to your building? You can do so without adding electrical requirements.
