What is industrial lighting?

If you’ve ever wondered ‘What is industrial lighting?’ or if you’re considering new lighting for your industrial facility and want to find out more, you’ve come to the right place. 

This blog post will focus on the benefits and applications of LED lighting in industrial settings, so keep reading to find out more. 

Understanding the Importance of Proper Lighting in Industrial Facilities: What Is Industrial Lighting?

Large industrial buildings require unique lighting solutions. Hallways, workstations and areas with machinery present their own risks, so ensuring adequate lighting can be overwhelming.

Here are just some of the many reasons that proper lighting is so important: 

• Safety: Proper industrial lighting can’t be underestimated when it comes to worker safety. Inadequate lighting can and will lead to accidents, mishandling of equipment or even longer term health issues like eye strain. High quality lighting, on the other hand, improves visibility, helping workers navigate with ease and execute tasks with precision.
• Glare and shadows: Proper placement of lighting in industrial facilities is essential for minimising eye strain and reducing productivity. The goal is for uniform light that reaches all areas. 
• Energy efficiency: Industrial facilities are expensive to run, but using LED industrial lighting can make a big difference. See more about the benefits of LED lighting below. 

Benefits of LED lighting

If you’re not familiar with the many benefits of LED lighting, here are the main ones that make it a hugely popular choice for commercial, domestic and industrial lighting alike: 

• Energy efficiency: LEDs are energy-efficient lighting solutions that reduce your carbon footprint and can result in significant cost savings. An LED factory light is the perfect solution to your industrial facility lighting issues because it’s brighter, uses less energy and lasts longer than traditional lights. 
• Cost reduction: LED lights don’t only last longer, they’re also cheaper to run. Because they’re so energy efficient, making the switch can save hundreds of pounds each year. 
• Improved safety: Research shows that many businesses can lower their lighting energy consumption by 75% by switching to LED lighting!
• Better light quality: LED lights don’t ‘burn out’ as other light bulbs do and last a lot longer than fluorescent lighting. These bulbs are designed and built to last - the average bulb is designed to last for between 25,000 to 50,000 hours of continuous use. 
• Reduced maintenance: These lights are very durable meaning they rarely need to be replaced and they’re much safer than incandescent lights. Since they produce less than half the heat, they’re less of a fire risk and less likely to result in burns or injuries during replacement.
