traditional fluorescent fittings, cutting carbon emissions
considerably. The units are fully sealed, meaning that they are ideal for supermarkets or food retailers, as they do not attract dust or insects. MHA Lighting has installed one such system at Tout’s Budgens in Cheddar, replacing traditional fluorescents with 84 of their unique TiLite fittings from the patented range. The company claims the fixtures will provide the retailer with energy savings worth £89,539 over the product’s lifetime, saving 567 tonnes of C02. If Tout’s Budgens run the fixtures at 18 hour a day operation, then it is believed that the lights will not need replacing for nine years, also saving on the cost of routine maintenance. The LED lighting system also has
additional benefits in that the lack of heat produced means that air conditioning systems do not have to work so hard, and their flickerfree performance means that CCTV monitors are also much clearer. “We chose to make the switch to LED
lighting as part of our commitment to improving the customer experience and reducing the carbon footprint of the business,”
explains Philip Tout, Owner of Tout’s Budgens. “MHA Lighting provided an LED lighting solution that not only improves lighting levels but reduces our ongoing energy costs and equivalent Co2 emissions. We are delighted with the results and are already getting positive feedback from our customers about how great the new store looks and the feel of the store created by the light”. Energy efficiency and cost reductions
were also the central values of a new lighting investment for a Hemköp store in Björklinge, Sweden. The pioneering lighting solution features the first installation of HavellsSylvania’s Fast Trunking System (FTS) in Sweden. "Our challenge was to find a flexible
solution that suited both the store Owner and the Property Manager’s requirements. By thinking outside the box, we decided that light on the shelves instead of industry standard floor lighting was, in fact, the best way to display our products,” explains Jan Svannäs, owner of the projects’ installers, Svenska Ljusgrossisten. “As this is such an innovative idea, finding a completely new comprehensive solution was a challenge. Fortunately, HavellsSylvania provided the answer with its brand new FTS an extremely smooth and flexible lighting solution that is both
quick to install and energy efficient". The Fast Trunking System from HavellsSylvania is an innovation in modular suspended LFL systems, similar to “click” floor systems. Installed in 19 units of 9m lengths, this new lighting solution creates an inviting atmosphere within the Swedish Hemköp store. Through the intelligent use of large reflectors, light output is doubled to an average lighting value of 1050 Lux. The team at HavellsSylvania is
delighted with the response that their Fast Trunking System has had from contractors and retailers alike, who have been very positive about the
MHA Lighting worked on creating an energy efficient solution for Tout’s Budgens in Cheddar.
