Business Summary
Dulux is an international brand of paint, introduced in 1931. The business has built a solid framework manufacturing and selling architectural paint. It has grown to be a house hold name in Australia and has become an important pillar in the paint industry.
Upgrade Summary
Dulux enlisted Victorian Power Savers to assist them in upgrading their old inefficient lighting. Our energy and lighting audit identified a number of shortcomings in the existing lighting system. Mainly, most spaces were underlit and the shelved products were not highlighted effectively. We designed a system comprised of LED Highbays, Shoplights, Tubes, and Downlights, aimed at best illuminating these spaces. The result was a better spread of light and excellent colour rendering, with a 73% reduction in energy consumption! Retail spaces come under tier 1 - 100% rebate, so this upgrade was completely free to Dulux!
