TESTIMONIALS
With Ricoh’s Corporate initiative for pursuing green technology, Green Systems, was brought in to switch out and replace the existing dim and shadowy lighting throughout its Cleveland based facility.
Most know that LED lighting is well known for its light quality, energy efficiency and money saving qualities. With our LED upgrade from Green Systems, we received all that and more. The better LED lighting has led to a much brighter facility, admired by management, employees and our customers. Ricoh’s better lit LED facility has removed poorly lit areas which has improved safety, has increased production (due to less eye strain), increased our morale from a brighter facility and even improved our quality by improving our barcode camera reads on our inserting machines.
I can’t thank the Green Systems Team enough for all the amazing customer service. From quotation, to the initial walkthrough and throughout the installation, the complete process was a very seamless and easy process. Ricoh considers the LED switchover from Green Systems to be one of the best facility improvements it ever made.
Thank you again!
