Imagine arriving at 7am at a distribution center and seeing all the lights on, even with the strong sun shining through the roof. In another sector, excess light on the fruit and vegetable counters accelerates the ripening of fruits. And in the separation area, employees face unbalanced heat and light, affecting productivity in the early hours of the day.
Scenarios like this are still common in cash and carry and are costly.
Not only in the energy bill, but in operational wear, inventory losses and lack of control over the environment.
It is in this context that MB Group's solutions for natural lighting and intelligent control gain prominence.Domus Linealight e MB Smartthey form a precise combination between the use of sunlight and the automation of artificial lighting, with a direct impact on cost reduction and environmental balance.
Domus Linealight:Precision-engineered natural light
Domus Linealight is a natural lighting system developed to ensure maximum use of sunlight in large structures, without compromising the air conditioning or visual comfort of the environments.
Present in networks such asKoch Wholesaler, Domus is designed to maintainoptimal lighting levels (300 lux)throughout working hours, even on cloudy days, reducing the need for artificial light and delivering:
- Reduction in electrical energy consumption
- More comfortable environments for employees and customers
- More sustainability with less environmental impact
- Tailor-made adaptation for different types of coverage
MB Smart:intelligent control of artificial lighting
While the Domus takes advantage of natural light, theMB Smartcomes into play to fine-tune artificial lighting, delivering exactly what each environment needs, when it needs it.
With sensors that read ambient light in real time, MB Smart adjusts the intensity of artificial light by sector, avoiding excess and waste.
Benefits for wholesale operations:
- Significant reduction in energy consumption
- Lighting control by sector and shift
- Integration with dimmable LEDs
- Less thermal wear in sensitive areas (such as produce)
- More visual comfort and less interference with inventory
The ideal combination for wholesale
Together, Domus Linealight and MB Smart transform lighting management into a strategic action.
While Domus drastically reduces the need for artificial energy during the day, MB Smart ensures that when the lights need to be turned on, it is done in the most efficient way possible.
This integration generates a more predictable, sustainable operation and aligned with technical standards for ergonomics, safety and commercial lighting.
The real gains of those who project light intelligently
When lighting is thought of as part of the operation's engineering and not as a technical detail, the impact spreads throughout the routine:
- Reduction of consumption peaks and stabilization of energy costs
- More balanced operating environments with less thermal wear
- Less manual interventions, more precision and reliability in routine
- Dynamic adjustments between shifts, sectors and weather conditions
- Real improvement in teams’ working hours and customer experience
It's not just about saving energy, it's about designing an environment that works alongside the operation.
