The Challenge: Substandard Light Levels and Rising Operating Costs
The distribution center in question was operating under outdated lighting conditions, producing just 70 lux, far below the company’s newly established corporate minimum of 200 lux. Employees will have lower productivity rates and create an unsafe working environment, as well as possibly violating code compliance. In addition to those issues, it interferes with daily operations. The facility experienced regular interruptions and high energy use. The retailer’s primary goals for the retrofit are to meet or exceed the new 200-lux minimum, reduce energy consumption, and minimize maintenance needs.
When considering an LED retrofit for your facility, energy savings are not your only benefit. In our blog, Benefits of an LED Retrofit in 2025, offers a look at the lifespan and maintenance, as well as lighting performance in quality LED lighting.
The Solution: Turn-Key LED Retrofit for Commercial Warehouses
Action Services Group implemented a full-service, turn-key LED retrofit that included site evaluation, lighting design, photometric analysis, product selection, and professional installation. Leveraging a manufacturer-neutral business model, the team was able to specify the best lighting products based solely on performance, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness, rather than brand affiliations.
The integrated lighting solution pairs LEDs with advanced lighting controls. Having occupancy sensors throughout the warehouse ensures lights are only on when needed and cuts down on unnecessary energy consumption.
When the lighting installation was complete, the client’s lighting was 25% above the corporate standard, and energy usage dropped by 22%. LEDs emit enhanced light quality that creates a safer and more productive workplace for employees while minimizing the frequency of maintenance needs. The lower energy consumption and long lifespan lead to cost savings and a higher long-term ROI. The manufacturer-neutral approach ensured a customized solution that matched the facility’s specific operational goals.

This retrofit improved both the working environment and our bottom line.”
