LED High Bay Lighting for Logistics Warehouse: HBS 150W Upgrade at TNT Germany(images 1)

This project took place inside a TNT logistics warehouse with long aisles, high racking, and constant movement of forklifts and pallet trucks. The ceiling height was well above standard industrial spaces, and most fixtures had been running continuously for years.

On paper, the task looked straightforward: replace old 400W HPS lamps with LED. On site, it was not that simple.

Understanding the Warehouse

The warehouse layout was linear and repetitive. Rows of shelves, narrow lanes, and loading zones at both ends. Any uneven light shows up fast in this type of space. Dark spots slow operators down. Glare causes hesitation.

We walked the aisles first. Some HPS lamps were still bright. Others had already shifted color or dropped output. Maintenance logs showed frequent replacements, especially near loading areas.

That told us where the real cost was.

Fixture Selection

We chose the HBS Series 150W LED high bay. Not because of headline numbers, but because it matched the mounting height and beam requirement without forcing changes to the structure.

The 90° beam angle worked with the existing spacing. Wider optics would have wasted light on racking tops. Narrower beams would have created stripes on the floor.

CCT was set at 4000K. Neutral light made labels readable and reduced eye fatigue during long shifts. Higher CCT was discussed, then rejected after test comparison.

Installation Notes

All fixtures were installed using the original suspension points. No rewiring changes beyond driver replacement. That saved time and avoided downtime.

Once powered on, the difference was immediate but not dramatic. The light felt steadier. No warm-up. No flicker. Operators noticed it during night shifts more than daytime operations.

After Commissioning

Maintenance teams stopped tracking lamp failures in this zone. That alone changed how the site planned its routine work.

This LED High Bay Lighting for Logistics Warehouse project was not about redesigning the space. It was about making the lighting stop being a problem.
