The lighting project was contracted to Murphy Energy Systems, and the project includes upgrading and retrofitting all interior and exterior lighting.
The energy-saving renovation also included the implementation of lighting controls to reduce the energy required to light the facility, while improving overall light quality and quantity, resulting in a lighter and brighter work environment.
On average, the fluorescent technology increased light output throughout the plant by 20%-30%, yet costs 60% less to operate than the previous lighting technology, MOM Brands claims.
MOM Brands will save nearly a quarter of a million dollars in energy costs annually and reduce CO2 output by about 4.5 million pounds per year.
