Situation
Envirocare Ltd have taken a long-term view of the reconditioned steel drum sector whilst competitors are looking to reduce capacity and in some cases encourage the steel drum customer away from the reconditioned option. Since moving to a new four acre site Envirocare Ltd have recognised the lighting in the sheds where in need of an upgrade. After a visit by Mike Stephens from Lightsave LED it was concluded from the existing lights (440w Sodium High Bay) costs could be greatly reduced by looking at LED.
Solution
Envirocare Ltd tried out a lot of different solutions, and this one emerged as the clear winner, not just because the LED technology could deliver significant reductions in CO2 emissions and energy savings of 73%, but also because the payback time would be less than 2yrs in this case.
Lightsave LED proposed the LS Magnetic Tube, with a 5yr Warranty giving exceptional lighting requirements. The initial experiences have been extremely positive. The lights were replaced in just four weeks by their own team. The LED tubes are working perfectly and provide uniform, glare-free light distribution in the Warehouse housing the barrels. With no flickering or humming, and with uniform light colour and illuminance throughout their long service life of 50,000 hours.
Bill Standing Director “The lighting and the client care provided by the Lightsave team resulted in our company dramatically reducing energy costs whilst improving lighting.”
