It takes immense skill and judgment to offload shipping
containers, so it is essential that crane drivers have
the right amount of light. The integrated light shield on
Thorn’s Champion fitting ensures no light travels up
from the luminaire or creates glare for the driver. It also
still provides excellent lighting for the containers.

Tight control of obtrusive light ensures the light
from the Champion luminaires is directed only
where required, so the surrounding buildings and
environment are not affected. Nearby residents
will no longer have their front rooms lit up on
match night.
When you have to maintain thousands of luminaires,
it is vital to be able to check operation remotely.
Thorn’s Oxane provides a long-life LED and
driver and communicates with the local authority’s
central controls when the lighting needs attention.
In turn, this can significantly reduce maintenance
requirements and costs as the modern light source
and optics save energy.
