It has been reported in Business Green that the system will be adopted in Sainsbury’s new store in Leek, Staffordshire and will enable the company to make energy savings of 59%. As well as making use of the new highly efficient LEDs, the move will also include daylight sensors to optimise the use of natural daylight. The new lights are just one of a number of green features installed in the store as part of the company’s 20x20 sustainability programme.
The team at Simple Lighting co. offers an extensive range of LED tape lighting and are therefore fully aware of the economic and environmental benefits. A representative shares their thoughts on the matter.
“As a large nationwide supermarket, Sainsbury’s has to find a balance between not compromising the customer’s shopping experience and addressing their own environmental impact. LED lights are a perfect way of doing this as the energy saved is through reduced heat loss and not quality of light. As such we have begun to see a number of large businesses and organisations making the switch."
"At Simple Lighting we are approached by a number of individuals looking to make savings through swapping incandescent bulbs for LEDS, so we regularly update our stock to reflect the demand.”
