Joliet Mobil, a key location on Route 66, was losing business to a newly opened gas station down the street, which boasted modern and bright lighting. To compete effectively and attract more customers, Joliet Mobil needed a lighting upgrade that would enhance visibility, improve aesthetics, and create a safer environment.

Challenges
- Significant color shift in the existing lights, which resulted in a green hue, negatively impacting the overall aesthetic and safety.
- Inadequate lighting levels, particularly in critical areas such as in front of dispensers and at nozzle level.
- Pressing need to improve visibility and curb the loss of business to a nearby competitor with superior lighting.
Solution: FlexBeam™ Canopy Light

To address these issues, Joliet Mobil chose Jarvis Lighting’s FlexBeam fixtures to replace the old Cree 228 Series lights. The FlexBeam fixtures, set to 5000K and featuring ‘side throw High output’ modules, ensured optimal light distribution and brightness.
