Chalmor is helping Everards Brewery
reduce its carbon footprint and save
around £15,000 per annum on
lighting costs at its Leicester facility.

The project involved replacing
lighting and introducing controls to
minimise energy wastage.

In warehouse and cellar areas
Chalmor’s Brilliance 3 x 54W T5
fluorescent fittings have been
installed on a point-for-point basis,
while in the garage multi-wattage
Brilliance fittings have been used, each
fitted with 2 x 28W and 1 x 54W
lamps. In the loading dock the
Chalmor design has used Resilience
2 x 35W IP65 T5 fittings.

Resilience fittings in the loading
dock are zoned into three rows, each
controlled separately through an
AutoLux 6-channel lighting
controller. This enables the lighting
to be switched off row by row, in
relation to the penetration of natural
daylight, with the row closest to the
outside switched off first. Timer
control is also provided to ensure
lighting is not on when not needed.
