The Challenge
The existing lighting system at Börjes Logistik caused high energy costs, required frequent maintenance, and offered insufficient light quality. A solution was needed that would lower costs, improve visibility, and make employees’ daily work safer and more efficient.
The Solution – LED Retrofit with GLT LED TUBE
A total of 122 old T5 and T8 fluorescent tubes were replaced with GLT LED TUBES in a 1:1 retrofit process according to IEC/EN 62776, carried out during ongoing operations. The existing luminaires were converted according to EN standards, and the old ballasts were removed. The LED driver is fully integrated into the GLT LED TUBE, allowing non-electrical personnel to easily replace the light source in the future.
Maintenance costs are reduced to an absolute minimum, supported by the exceptionally long service life of up to 130,000 hours. The new LED lighting system meets all technical standards and legal requirements for quality, energy efficiency, and sustainability. A significant improvement in workplace safety and visibility has been observed, which sustainably enhances efficiency and employee well-being.
Thanks to the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) of the GLT TUBE, all environmental impacts of the lighting can be transparently measured and documented.
Key advantages of our LED retrofit for Börjes Logistik in Nybro:
- Energy-efficient and cost-effective: 122 GLT LED TUBES save around 22,500 kWh of electricity per year, with a payback period of just 15 months.
 - Maintenance-free and long-lasting: The LED retrofit solution with GLT LED TUBES minimizes maintenance requirements thanks to their 130,000-hour lifetime.
 - Sustainable and resource-efficient: The scientifically verified life cycle assessment (EPD) of the GLT LED TUBE is an essential component of Börjes Logistik’s sustainability and ESG strategy.
 - GLT Reuse System: At the end of their service life or rental period, GLT LED TUBES are returned, refurbished, or recycled. When purchasing new GLT TUBES, we take back the old ones and credit €5 per unit.
