THE CHALLENGE
IMPROVED LIGHT LEVELS WAS THE NUMBER ONE CONCERN TO INCREASE THE TEAM'S PRODUCTIVITY AND SAFETY.
Kubota Canada’s office and warehouses located in Markham Ontario wanted to become more energy-efficient and increase their lighting levels at the same time. In their warehouse, they required better light levels to make it easier for the staff to scan, pick and ship the products. On the exterior, better lighting on the loading docks was paramount for a safer, more efficient shipping area.
