Blackstone Facility Reduces Lighting

Energy Consumption by Over 60%

In our continuing effort to support corporate stewardship and sustainability, Showbest fixture has added to its initiatives by installing energy efficient lighting in its Blackstone plant.

The savings on energy consumption are on excess of 60% per annum, and feature intelligent light switches which separate areas of little traffic volume to reduce unnecessary consumption.

In replacing the old lighting system, Engineering Manager Scott Schubert said, “In addition to the financial savings, the facility now has an exceptional lighting level which draws 60% less power from the main grid.”

This is not the first sustainable initiative undertaken at the Blackstone plant since its opening. Last year a new computer controlled HVAC system to reduce energy costs by use of automatic set back of heating and cooling was installed, as well as computer based automated processes which resulted in reduced wood waste through optimized woodcutting.
