Innovative Packaging T5 Lighting Retrofit Case Study

Welcome to the first in a series of lighting retrofit case studies we will be publishing in the coming months.  In this series, we highlight customers in various industries that have gone through a lighting retrofit in their facility to take advantage of more energy-efficient technology.  This lighting retrofit case study can be used as an example of what is attainable via a lighting retrofit by those interested in undergoing similar retrofit projects.  If you have a facility type that we have not covered, please feel free to leave a comment or contact us.  We have been involved in many lighting retrofit projects and may be able to call upon our previous clients for specific data needed for a case study.

Case Study Name Innovative Packaging, Inc.
Case Study Location Huntington, IN

Company Background

Innovative Packaging produces all types of corrugated packaging products and serves the Indiana, Michigan and Ohio markets. The company designs all products to customer specifications and can take projects from conception to a final corrugated piece delivered to the customers location. That final product may be a printed or labeled carton, point of purchase display with graphics, or any number of specialty die cuts.

The Opportunity

Innovative Packaging operates out of a 118,800 square foot facility that is used for both production and warehousing.  Prior to the lighting retrofit, the facility was predominantly lit with 400 W Metal Halide fixtures.  Light levels were very low throughout the area so the company had also installed 4' and 8' T12 Linear Fluorescent strips over work areas to improve the light levels where needed.
