Inverhouse Distillers' Knockdhu Distillery near Huntly in Aberdeenshire first opened in 1894 to produce their world famous anCnoc' whisky with traditional skills and techniques. Over the years the distillery has developed an uncompromising approach to safe working practices and recently invested in improvements to hazardous area Zone 1 and Zone 2 lighting on site.

Gordon Bruce, General Manager of the distillery, commented, "Following a hazardous area lighting audit we identified two seperate parts of the facility where we needed enhanced lighting certified for hazardous areas - the main storage warehouse where Zone 2 lighting was required and which can get very cold and the distillation area which required Zone 1 lighting.

Hadar HDL220 hazardous area luminaires were installed in the storage warehouse. Hadar HDL220 are made from corrosion resistant glass reinforced polyester and high impact polycarbonate, with stainless steel fittings which have the advantage of being able to be left periods of time in cold environments without any deterioration in the hazardous area light fitting."

"The Zone 1 distillation area has a very high roof due to the height of the stills which required hazardous area lighting fitted in a variety of different aspects from wall mounted brackets to overhead chain mounting. Hadar HDL100 zone 1 fluorescent luminaire was specified for this hazardous area lighting application. Hadar HDL100 modular construction and built-in unitstrut channel meant that it was easy to fit in a variety of ways without any special skills or equipment and the self contained lamp envelope enables quick and easy cleaning and lamp changes to be achieved with the minimum fuss or disruption to the distillation process.
