LED lighting retrofit for Hines Germany in Hamburg

Across 40,200 m² of office space – including corridors, stairways, and outdoor areas – Hines Germany implemented a future-ready lighting solution by replacing 408 outdated fluorescent tubes with modern GLT LED TUBES “Made in Germany.” The collaboration between CQuel and German LED Tech enabled an efficient LED retrofit, significantly reducing energy consumption and operating costs while improving light quality throughout the property.
