CRH Case Study: EHL

EHL is a CRH company that specializes in the manufacture of concrete blocks for garden and landscaping. Their 5,150m2 manufacturing facility in Roßla, Germany was equipped with an aging and inefficient lighting system, resulting in poor light levels both inside and outside the building, a high energy spend, and a significant environmental impact.

EHL and their parent company, CRH, sought a zero cap ex lighting solution that would allow them to not only improve light levels on site, but also to see the monetary benefits from the outset. What’s more, it was vital that the lighting project did not disrupt their busy production schedules. UrbanVolt’s Light as a Service was the answer.

UrbanVolt project managed the retrofit of the entire premises with investment-grade LED lighting. The installation team worked outside production times to minimize disruption. In 9 days, 161 custom-made LED light fittings were installed outside production hours.
