Yokohama

Founded in 1990 from the joint venture of Yokohama Tokyo, Marubeni Corporation and Magri Gomme, Yokohama Italia, the Italian branch of the leading Japanese tyre manufacturer, operates exclusively through the professional channel of the specialist tyre dealer.

Sustainability has always been one of the pillars on which the policy of this global giant is based. Examples of this are green tyre lines with low environmental impact and Yokohoama's commitment to environmental protection. Already in line with the targets set in the Kyoto Protocol, the company's goal is, in fact, to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25% by 2020.

Following the international sustainable policy, the Italian subsidiary also commits itself daily to the pursuit of an environmentally friendly corporate policy. For this reason, the hub has chosen Gewiss to illuminate the areas of the document storage, loading and unloading, tipping and order preparation.

Compared to the 834 1x80W fluorescent ceiling lights of the previous installation, the current 500 Smart [4] luminaires installed, equal to 40% less, have made it possible to increase the level of illumination, to reduce energy consumption by 53.7% annually, from 352kWh to 162,950kWh consumed.

The intervention also allowed the lighting to be adjusted according to UNI EN 12464-1:2011.
