Projects and Case Studies
Sky Stadium, Wellington
The Sky Stadium Wellington, affectionally known as the "Cake Tin', is a leading venue for sports and entertainment.
The Stadium has recently completed a major sustainability upgrade. As part of this initiative, we replaced over 3,000 outdated light fittings with high-efficiency LED luminaires, significantly reducing both carbon emissions and energy consumption. This targeted lighting upgrade, which covered key areas of the stadium is forecast to reduce the lighting related power usage by 79%, saving the Sky Stadium over $260,000 a year on their electricity bills.
Justice Centre, Wellington
The Justice Centre is a large 16-storey office block located in Thorndon Wellington which is tenanted by a number of government departments.
The building has a DALI lighting control system so the Ecobulb supplied LED luminaires had to be compatible. Compatibility with the buildings third party contractors prior to procurement was validated. Being busy offices, most of the installation works are being completed after hours. In total we installed 4,500 luminaires that will collectively save the tenants of these offices over $360,000 a year on their electricity bills.
New Zealand Post, Palmerston North
New Zealand Post’s Manawatu Mail Centre is a busy warehouse and office which runs seven days a week, 20 hours a day.
The facility already had a DALI lighting control system installed, so we had to supply luminaires that were DALI compatible, including commissioning. The site was occupied and operating almost 24/7, so significant planning was involved to ensure we didn’t disrupt their operations. This lighting upgrade is saving New Zealand Post over $20,000 a year and has reduced their lighting power bills by 80%.
Healthcare Logistics, Richard Pearse Drive Auckland
The Healthcare Logistics facility on Richard Pearse Drive spans approximately 3,000 m² of open warehouse space.
Healthcare Logistics' warehouse and office previously relied on traditional lighting, but switched to energy-efficient LED lighting to reduce their electricity bills. Due to the high level of activity in both areas, most of the installation was carried out outside regular business hours. This upgrade is saving over $30,000 a year and has reduced their lighting power bills by 72%.
Healthcare Logistics, Verissimo Drive Auckland
Healthcare Logistics, spanning 6,760m², is a leading provider of healthcare supply chain solutions in New Zealand.
Healthcare Logistics' warehouse and office originally used conventional lighting, but the transition to high-efficiency LED lighting has led to substantial cost savings. Given the high activity in both areas, most of the installation work is completed after business hours. This upgrade is saving Healthcare Logistics over $32,000 a year and has reduced their lighting power bills by 62%.
ProPharma Auckland
ProPharma operates a large 15,000m² office and warehouse facility located in Auckland.
Recently ProPharma upgraded its office and warehouse facilities in Auckland by incorporating energy-efficient LED lighting, further advancing its sustainability efforts while enhancing the work environment. This upgrade is saving ProPharma over $35,000 a year and has reduced their lighting power bills by 73%.
Apex Valves
When Apex Valves moved into their new premises, they needed a full warehouse lighting redesign. Referred by the landlord, they chose Ecobulb for our industrial LED expertise. We replaced and repositioned 44 existing highbays and added 25 new fittings to suit engineering, assembly, packing and racking areas. Work was coordinated around other trades with minimal disruption. Results: Bright, even lighting across all zones, no dark aisles, and more than $9,000 in annual energy savings. Office upgrades are next, continuing the push for efficiency and long-term savings.
St Claudine Thevenet School
St Claudine Thevenet School, a small Catholic primary in Wainuiamata, upgraded its outdated lighting to improve classroom comfort, aesthetics, and energy efficiency. 188 LED light fittings were installed across the school, delivering brighter, more consistent lighting. The installation was completed in under a week during the school holidays, minimising disruption. The upgrade saves over $11,000 a year in electricity and maintenance, reduces the school’s carbon footprint by 3.4 tonnes of CO₂, and has a payback period of just three years – a smart investment in both learning and sustainability.
