Hardings Transport

Hardings Transport Ltd is a Leicester-based haulier company, with a 55,000 sq ft warehouse delivering thousands of items internationally.

With haulage vehicles regularly accessing the warehouse, it was important that the loading bays were optimised to ensure quick and efficient transfer of goods and stock.

To sufficiently illuminate the canopy area, while ensuring that glare is kept to a minimum to assist workers and drivers, xcite High Bay fittings were installed at the Bardon Hill site.

As the warehouse operates for long hours, from early morning to late evening, workers are often at the site during dark periods. The High Bay ensures staff safety, by providing enough light for them to work with heavy machinery, and removing shadows to avoid unexpected accidents.

The xcite High Bay achieves an efficacy of up to 133 lumens per Watt efficacy, therefore provided a significant energy efficient upgrade on the previous fluorescent lighting system, which is crucial for an energy conscious company such as Hardings Transport.

Unilite was established in 1981 as a lighting supplier. It has now grown into one of the world’s leading suppliers of flashlights, and is continuing to expand.

Unilite has recently built a new £1.6m headquarters in Redditch, Worcestershire. Included in the development was a larger warehouse, logistics and distribution centre. The warehouse required a lighting system that was both energy efficient, and created an effective working environment for staff.

As an ambitious, fast moving company, it’s important that the facilities at Unilite are geared towards boosting productivity and efficiency. On the mezzanine, xcite battens were installed, illuminating the floor space, allowing staff to quickly and efficiently work around the warehouse.
