Overview
Anglo American Oil Company Ltd. distribute a wide selection of clean-burning performance fuels worldwide. Kellwood LED Lighting was asked by the client to provide a hazardous-area solution for their new UK facility.
The volatile nature of the client's merchandise ensured extreme care had to be taken when specifying lighting for their project areas. Continued employee safety was paramount. A highly functional premium solution for a competitive price was our client's end goal.
Kellwood's in-house design team produced over 10 iterations of the project area working closely with the client to tailor the perfect result. Energy forecasting and product payback modelling was provided. Zone 1 hazardous area hardware was manufactured and supplied.
"...We started a major expansion last year which included moving premises into a custom-built warehousing facility. Th nature of our business means that flammable liquids are permanently stored on-site and a new explosion-proof lighting system was going to be required.
Initially LED seemed to be the best option but after the first set of quotes came back I was seriously put off the idea. Having searched some more we came across Kellwood, a bricks-and-mortar Scottish engineering group.
Kellwood, more than anyone else I talked to, showed interest in supplying exactly what I needed. I wanted open advice and I got it. I didn't want bells and whistles, I needed a lighting system that worked. I needed a supplier who was interested in offering me the level of serice I would expect Anglo American to give our own clients. I'm more than satisfied, the installation looks fantastic."
