WHS - LED Lighting Trial - Newbury - High Street

Date: 30/1/2012

 

WHS have completed LED lighting trial at their High Street Store in Newbury. ArmadilloLED Barracuda LED tubes delivered more light, better quality on lighting and provided huge energy savings...

 

WH Smith PLC in their Corporate Responsibility report for 2011 says...

"... Lighting uses more than half of the energy of a trading store and, during the year, we have been trialling improvements to our lighting equipment in High Street. We conducted a trial of new LED lighting at our Newbury store and saw significant reductions in energy usage, with no impact to the levels of light within the store. The outgoing lights were recycled, and the new ones will last around ten years, reducing the environmental impact of disposing with old tubes. Based on our learnings from the Newbury trial, we plan to roll out similar lighting upgrades to other High Street stores during 2011/12 and would hope to accelerate our energy savings programme as a result...."

Some Great Feedback also comes from clients....

 

You should pop in and check out refurbished WHS store on Newbury High Street. Spoke to girl working there, and she said these are LED Tubes, in their WH Smith Store. I can now see :)  This New LED lighting is just amazing, I couldn’t believe how clean it is. Don’t know who supplied them but you have no glare and no spot compare to most of LED on market, and apparently they are very energy efficient. Maybe WHS to meet their carbon targets will stop switching lights out to save energy. You are absolutely right most of WHS is very dull, and you couldn’t see what you buy. Glad is changing!
