How can Kellwood Lighting help?
- Enclosed Light Fittings - our paint shop lights are housed in tamper-proof, powder-coated enclosures with high IP (ingress) ratings for regular scheduled cleaning.
- Low Profile Lights - compact luminaires (suitable for recessed wall cavity installation) to optimise space within booths.
- Emergency Lighting - we can provide emergency lighting solutions for paint shops, as well as general lighting solutions.
- Energy Saving - High efficiency LED light engines minimise energy consumption, and electricity bills.
- Lighting Design - our lighting design team have the knowledge and experience to provide paint shop lighting schemes to meet SLL (CIBSE) requirements.
- Smart Controls - optional smart controls can further reduce energy consumption through integrated microwave sensors and DALI dimming.
Please refer to our Hazardous Areas page for information relating to lighting other areas including tank farms, distilleries, and chemical stores.
