Dairy Crest, tailor made lighting for a total solution

Dairy Crest required an energy saving solution for the lighting at their Stroud installation where the varying applications across the site required the “total solution” that the Dexeco product range provides.

Dexeco supplied their Ambient LED lowbay for the high level refrigerated warehousing areas and the Ambient Eco Impervia LED was installed in the low level refrigerated areas. Both luminaires are designed to work in a wide range of temperatures from -40 to +35 degrees centigrade and offer excellent energy savings against HID equivalents through reduced power consumption and the ability to integrate sensor control.

In some areas the ceiling design required a bespoke approach to allow for a quick and simple installation, a critical element of Dexeco’s ethos of minimising installation costs to maximise return on customer’s investment. Dexeco applied their years of experience and the expertise of their lighting design department to provide a bespoke solution for Dairy Crest to ensure that the installation of the replacement luminaires was as simple as possible.

The use of LEDs in the low temperature areas allowed for effective lighting with full sensor control and remote control programming capability, avoiding the pitfalls of fluorescent or HID sources in these areas with which lumen depreciation and sensor control become problematic.

In order to provide Dairy Crest with complete confidence in the product all luminaires were supplied with a 5 year warranty and Philips Constant Light Output LEDs, providing many thousands of hours of operation with 0% lumen depreciation from the light source therefore minimising the need to over light the installation from the outset and resulting in lower capital cost and further reductions in energy consumption.

“Dexeco has a wide range of specialised luminaires which allows us to choose products optimised for each area of our installation. Dexeco’s ability to offer a complete solution for all applications combined with their versatility in customising products to our requirements made them the best choice for us in our lighting refurbishment and the energy savings achieved from the use of their products are outstanding.” Jason Edney, Project Engineering Manager, Dairy Crest.
