Smart warehouse lighting in Kaunas

Here’s how smart warehouse lighting helped Signeda optimize its 10,000-square-meter warehouse in Kaunas, enhancing energy efficiency, safety, and overall visibility.

 

 

Location:

Kaunas district, Lithuania

 

Hardware:

  • Lusety network router
  • Microwave sensors
  • Smart light dimmers

 

The challenge

When Signeda, a major importer and exporter of car body parts and lights across Northern and Eastern Europe, opened its 10,000-square-meter warehouse, lighting quickly emerged as a concern. Traditional lighting systems were driving up energy costs and proved inefficient for such a large industrial space. Especially one with varying activity zones and usage patterns throughout the day.

The company sought a solution that would ensure:

  • High-quality illumination only when and where it was needed
  • Wouldn’t compromise visibility and employee safety.

 

The solution: smart warehouse lighting

Together with Signeda, we implemented a smart lighting system built on three core components:

  • Lusety network router for centralized control and seamless communication between devices
  • Microwave sensors to detect movement in real-time, even in large open areas or between shelving units
  • Smart light dimmers to automatically adjust brightness levels based on activity

This system allowed for precise, zone-based control and dynamic lighting adjustments throughout the warehouse.

 

Results & benefits

  • Significant energy savings
    By using motion detection and dimming capabilities, Signeda reduced its energy consumption by 86% compared to conventional warehouse lighting systems.
  • Quick ROI
    With such a substantial reduction in energy use, the entire lighting investment is expected to pay for itself in just 1.8 years.
  • Intelligent light management
    Lights automatically dim or turn off in unused areas while maintaining full brightness in high-activity zones, ensuring optimal illumination.
  • Improved operational efficiency
    The smart lighting system reduces the burden of manual light control and enables better oversight across the vast warehouse space.
  • Smart infrastructure for a growing business
    This project demonstrates how smart lighting technology can transform industrial spaces by reducing energy costs, supporting sustainability goals, and offering flexible, future-ready infrastructure. For large-scale operations like Signeda’s, it’s not just about lighting—it’s about smarter ways of working.
