LED lights at LPS Industries. - LPS Industries

LPS Industries, a vertically integrated flexible packaging manufacturer, has replaced 1,100 fluorescent and incandescent light fixtures with LED lights at its facility in Moonachie.

The project took two months and required the contractor to work 16-hour days. During that time, day-to-day operations at the manufacturing plant and corporate offices continued as normal. Employees now work with better and more diffuse light.

Studies have shown LED lights can improve employee moods, boost work efficiency and enhance work performance

The Societal Benefits Program from Public Service Enterprise Group, the local utility, helped hold down costs to LPS Industries. The program allows utility customers to “bank credits” for energy conservation projects and is a surcharge appearing on the monthly bill. By lowering the upfront expenses, the utility is providing incentives for upgrading a customer’s electrical infrastructure.

“LPS Industries’ switch to LED lighting will make our employees happier and safer. It will allow them to function at a higher level than before, and that will benefit them, the company and our customers. There is no downside to happier and more productive workers. PSEG made our lighting change much more attractive financially with its Societal Benefits Program,” Paul Harencak, vice-president of LPS Industries, said.

“The switch to LED lighting was an appealing proposition from the beginning. The change to LED lighting eliminates the need for fluorescent recycling. The LED lights are warrantied for 10 years, thereby reducing the need to continually buy and replace fluorescent bulbs. And there is much less energy consumption with LED lighting,” Madeleine Robinson, CEO of LPS Industries, said.
