The Challenge
Visibility in the recycling shed was extremely poor, as no natural light entered the building and the installed 400W metal halides operating 24/6 were rapidly deteriorating. Over 50% of them had failed and the remainder had discoloured, but the positioning of the machinery and height of the shed meant that the bulbs were not easily replaceable. With heavy machinery being operated and the resulting debris from this further reducing visibility, the workers had to rely on the headlamps from the loaders, so safety in the shed was a concern. Oxigen recognised the drain on resource the halides were causing and set out to find a more efficient lighting technology.
