Tamlite Lemonpath Leicester Industrial and Warehousing Case Study header

Lemonpath, Leicester

Tamlite boosts energy efficiency and quality of lighting at Lemonpath warehouse in Leicester.

Lemonpath is a full logistics service provider, based in Leicester, specialising in contract packing. Operating out of its substantial warehousing space, Lemonpath offers storage solutions for a range of companies. On top of this, it offers packaging for commercial products.

One of the warehouses underwent a significant refurbishment. This included replacing the racking aisles, providing new flooring and installing an upgraded lighting system. The aim of the new lighting system was to reduce energy and maintenance costs, as well as create a workplace that benefits people.

Tamlite Lighting were specified for the project, delivering the new lighting system to the requirements with minimal disruption to productivity.

Lighting for Industrial and Warehousing Environments

The new lighting system was implemented throughout the warehouse. This meant in the racking aisles, contract packing area and loading bays. Tamlite designed the system to enhance uniformity and reduce glare. As a result, the working environment for employees improved. Tamlite specifically designs its warehouse luminaires to deliver the best optical control.

At Lemonpath, ensuring that worker wellbeing was not compromised by the improved light output. Accordingly, the upgraded luminaires provided this.

One specific example was in the contract packing spaces. Staff remain in this area throughout the day. The newly installed low glare lighting system is complemented by skylights, providing additional natural illumination. Therefore, this demonstrates the ideal task lighting space which delivers a uniform light distribution as well as plenty of natural light. Of course, this reduces shadowing, avoids eyestrain and enhances worker wellbeing.

Controlled Energy Savings

The lighting upgrade consisted of replacing fluorescent fittings with the latest Tamlite LED luminaires. However, to achieve the best possible energy efficiency, PIR sensors were also specified.

This ensured that aisles were only illuminated when required, reducing the time that luminaires are in use. Not only does this reduce the energy consumption and improves the lifespan of luminaires, it also provides long term energy and maintenance savings for Lemonpath.

 

Emergency Lighting

As with any warehouse and logistics space, safety is paramount throughout Lemonpath. In the event of an emergency or loss of mains power, emergency lighting is required to highlight the quickest and safest route out of the building.

In warehouse and logistics spaces, emergency lighting is often at higher elevations. Because of this, it requires a higher output in order to achieve the required 1 lux on the ground in escape routes. It also requires 0.5 lux in open areas and at least 10% of normal illuminance in task areas.

Tamlite delivered luminaires with integral emergency variants, ensuring that occupants could easily identify escape routes out of the building.
