Parking Lot Lighting With LEDs
Proper illumination of parking lots and lead-in access roads is necessary for security and safety. Unfortunately, this comes at the significant expense of energy and maintenance cost using conventional lighting. In contrast, LED lighting provides the double advantage of lowered energy and maintenance costs. Additional benefits include truer color recognition, precision optical shaping, unsurpassed durability, […]
LED Natatorium Lighting
Natatoriums present some of the most unique lighting challenges of any indoor sports arenas. Water surfaces reflect and refract light, making it difficult for observers and referees to watch competitive swimming events. Pool chemicals and humidity can corrode metal surfaces on light fixtures in a relatively short amount of time. Lifeguards need good lighting to […]
Correctional Facility Lighting With LEDs
Correctional facilities place a high priority on safety, security, and operational efficiency. LED lighting systems can help meet or exceed performance standards in all three of these areas. Due to the instant-on and dimming capabilities of LED systems, new control methods are now practical and promise to allow even greater performance. LED lighting can improve […]
LED Shipyard Lighting
Shipyard illumination is typically broken into sub-categories of wall pack, flood, and canopy dock lighting. LED lighting systems are an ideal solution for all three sub-categories. SpecGrade LED produces luminaires with high beam uniformity for consistent lighting across an entire shipyard. They also provide a high Color Rendering Index (“CRI”) to replicate natural lighting conditions, […]
Lighting Manufacturing Areas with LEDs
Factories and manufacturing spaces have evolved from the dark and dangerous places of the industrial revolution to modern production lines and assembly stations with improved lighting over the years. Now lighting manufacturing areas provide even more opportunities to increase the productivity, safety and efficiency of manufacturing operations. Factory designers and production engineers are finding that […]
LED Exterior Space Lighting
Some of the more dramatic images of exterior spaces are seen under custom lighting conditions in evening hours. LED lighting systems are becoming the light source of choice to accomplish those stunning views. Unlike floodlights or other traditional lighting sources that shed light without discriminating among different exterior space features, LED light can be configured […]
Lighting Retail Areas with LEDs
Retail stores have discovered that they can make the retail shopping experience more pleasant, entertaining, and noteworthy by creating an optimum environment for consumers to experience goods before purchasing them with Lighting Retail Areas. Providing the right lighting conditions are an important part of that environment. Shoppers who feel relaxed spend the time to read […]
LED Highway Lighting
Highway authorities have an important responsibility of providing safe roadway illumination within a state or local budget. Advances in LED highway lighting technology are providing an opportunity to not only produce the optimal lighting; but also, save energy in the process. The cost of high performance, high quality LED lighting will typically be recouped several […]
LED Warehouse Lighting
Modern warehouses typically cover hundreds of thousands of square feet with operations that rely on logistics that can be timed down to the second. The efficiency and profitability of warehouses can be vastly improved with lighting that gives employees the best visual acuity at all levels in a warehouse, including between shelves and down long […]
