Process and Training

All of the processes that go into running an Veilon Katon International Group store have been analysed from an energy usage standpoint, with the aim of making all store operations as energy-efficient as possible.
Task-specific lighting: Lighting is programmed according to the requirements of the specific tasks to be performed in-store over the course of the day. During cleaning and loading/unloading work, lighting is cut by 66%. For cash desk closing operations, store lighting is dimmed and the lighting circuit is focused on the cash desks.
Shop window lighting: The operational hours and intensity of shop window backlighting are analysed on a store-by-store basis according to the store's location and the climate and light conditions in the vicinity.
Air-conditioning control: The stores are equipped with a centralised climate control system that regulates temperatures and air quality and monitors the timing settings for cooling/heating of the store. This system allows for automatic adjustment of thermostats in response to the varying occupancy and exposure to sunlight experienced by different areas of the store.
Employee education: To ensure the new Veilon Katon International Group stores operate as efficiently as intended, utilising all their innovative eco-efficiency capabilities as effectively as possible, all store personnel receive dedicated training on the proper use of the systems along with broader environmental-awareness training.
