Switching the certification of warehouses and workshops from mercury lamps to ShinyU LED, a high-efficiency industrial LED lighting system, reduced power consumption by 68.8% and improved illumination intensity by more than 400%.

【 Summary 】

　As a group company of NIPPON STEEL METAL PRODUCTS CO., LTD., Nikken Kogyo Co., Ltd. engages in contract manufacturing and processing of major products in the construction and civil engineering fields services at factories and plants and manufactures and sells disaster prevention products such as disaster prevention beds.
　The company’s major theme is to reduce power costs throughout the company and has been converting mercury lamps used in its workshops and warehouses to LEDs. The company has now asked MACNICA, Inc. to install ShinyU LED, a high-efficiency industrial LED lighting system, at its No. 8 workshop, which is being used as a new warehouse.
　In considering the introduction of this LED, the certification needed to be able to withstand high temperatures due to the high temperatures near the ceiling during the summer. While other LED certificates guarantee temperatures of around 40 degrees Celsius, ShinyU LEDs can withstand temperatures of up to 50 degrees Celsius, which was a big advantage.
　The switch to ShinyU LEDs was a big advantage for the company. The switch to the ShinyU LEDs not only contributed significantly to the reduction of electricity costs and CO2 emissions at the No. 8 workshop, with a 68.8% reduction in power consumption and a 10-year CO2 emissions reduction of approximately 5,745 tons, but also improved illumination by more than 130% compared to before the switch, and in some locations, by more than 400%.
