The Benefits of LED Lights in the Workplace

Why LED lights? Reduce the amount your business spends on energy by switching from old fluorescent, halogen, high-pressure sodium, and incandescent lighting to LED fittings and lamps. Here are some of the reasons that LEDs are a great option in the workplace! Long Life Average LED lights last around 50,000 hours, whereas a 15-watt fluorescent bulb may only last around 8,500 hours – so the average LED can last around 5 times longer than a normal bulb.

But they are also useful for lighting busy production or industrial areas. LEDs emit far less heat while in use, compared to traditional bulbs and as such, use less electricity. They last longer than other types of bulbs such as halogen, meaning that energy bills are lower each month. They don’t require replacing as often either which... Read More
