Industrial LED Lighting

LED lighting retrofits for manufacturing plants and industrial facilities, built for high ceilings and harsh environments, installed without shutting down production, and backed by the company that designs the fixtures and administers the warranty.

Industrial and manufacturing facilities are Think Green Solutions' specialty, from single plants to facilities of a million square feet. Plants run long hours under high ceilings, and a failed fixture 30 or 40 feet up means a lift, a technician and disruption to the work underneath it.

That is why fixture life matters more here than anywhere. Think Green designs its own fixtures, has them manufactured and sells them direct, then administers the warranty itself. Our longest-running projects are over 16 years old with a failure rate under 5%.

Our upgrades routinely reduce lighting energy consumption by 30 to 70 percent and maintenance costs by up to 95%, depending on what you are replacing. With full financing sized to your savings, an industrial plant retrofit can be cash-flow positive from the first month in many cases.

Proven onthe Plant Floor

At Hauser Industries, leadership saw the impact as the retrofit rolled out section by section and expanded the scope, choosing to replace even recently installed LED fixtures to standardize on the Think Green system.

Read the Hauser case study

  • “Night and day” at Hauser

    The first completed section at Hauser Industries was described as “literally a difference between night and day,” with dramatically improved visibility for workers and a clear benefit to quality control.

  • $48,000 instant rebate

    Think Green secured a $48,000 instant rebate for Hauser Industries and handled the process from start to finish.

  • Payback likely beaten

    Don Pickett, Director of Operations at Hauser, says the payback was expected to be around 4 years, and Hauser anticipates it will be met and probably beaten.

  • 50% less energy at Greentec

    Greentec's 2012 retrofit under 30 to 40 foot ceilings reduced energy use by 50 percent and generated 165,000 kWh in annual savings. Across both retrofits, Greentec achieved a 78 percent overall energy reduction.

What Industrial Facilities Need

Every area of a plant has a different job, so each gets its own fixture choice, layout and light level.

  • High bays at height

    Fixtures specified for your mounting height, from low bays over mezzanines to high bays under 30 to 40 foot ceilings.

  • Enclosed fixtures for dust and debris

    Fully enclosed, encapsulated fixtures suit dusty manufacturing environments and are easier to keep clean over time, as Hauser chose for its metal shop.

  • Multi-shift operation

    The more hours your lights run, the faster the savings add up, so plants running two or three shifts save more.

  • Inspection and task areas

    Brighter, more consistent light where workers inspect parts, read labels and check quality.

  • Warehousing and shipping

    Racking, aisles and loading docks inside the plant, lit to the same standard as the production floor.

  • Controls for low-traffic areas

    Networked controls dim or switch off lights in storage rooms and quiet areas, and can be programmed around your shift schedule.

Installed WithoutStopping Production

We never shut a business down. Installs are planned around your shifts, line schedules and shutdown windows, and rolled out section by section.

  • Normal hours or overnight

    Crews work during normal hours or overnight, around how your plant operates, so production keeps running.

  • Photometric layout

    Where a layout needs it, we run photometrics on the computer before install, so light levels and uniformity are right the first time.

  • 99% accurate second count

    Before install, our team returns to recheck every fixture, so the order matches your plant.

  • Warranty and service

    Our 10-year limited warranty on LED panels, high bays and low bays is administered by Think Green, with nationwide installation and service teams and same-day response for service.

Incentives andFull Financing

In Ontario, Think Green is an authorized Save on Energy partner. The Instant Discount comes straight off your quote, with no application for you to file, and networked lighting controls carry their own incentive, paid to you by cheque in approximately 90 days.

Programs outside Ontario vary by province, and incentives are available in almost every US state through local utilities. Where a program needs an application, savings calculations or post-installation measurement and verification, we handle it. Think Green has delivered over $15M in incentives to clients in Canada.

We also offer full financing, so an industrial upgrade can go ahead without a large upfront cost.
