Top 8 benefits of LED lighting

1. Long service life

LED lighting distinguishes itself from other types of lighting by its long lifespan.
LEDs and diodes have an excellent operational life expectancy of up to 100,000 hours.
This translates into continuous use of at 50%. If you let the LED fixture burn for 8 hours a day, it would take approximately 20 years before you have to replace the LED lamps. LEDs are also different from standard lighting. They do not really have burnout and stop working, as with light bulbs for example.

2. Energy efficient

The LED lighting is currently the most energy-efficient solution on the market, with an average efficiency between 80% and 90%. This means that about 80% of all electrical energy is converted to light, while about 20% is lost energy and is therefore converted to other forms of energy such as heat.  With traditional light bulbs, which only have an energy efficiency of 20%, 80% of the electricity is lost as heat energy. Imagine the following scenario: if you use traditional lighting and have an electricity bill of for example of that amount is used to heat the room, not to illuminate it! With the help of LED lighting, the electricity bill would only be around and you would have saved of that amount!

3. Environmentally friendly

LEDs do not contain toxic chemicals. Unlike LED lights, traditional light bulbs do contain a number of toxic substances such as mercury, which are dangerous for both the environment and your own health. In addition, LEDs are 100% recyclable and help you reduce your ecological footprint by up to 30%. It has also been mentioned that they have a long operational life.
This means that the production of one LED lamp ensures that we can save the production and raw materials for 25 traditional light bulbs. A big step towards a greener future!

4. Immediate lighting and frequent switching

LED lights immediately emit bright, clear light. This is a major advantage if LEDs are used in large infrastructure projects such as traffic lighting. Moreover, they can often be switched on and off without affecting the life of the lamps.

5. Sustainable quality

LEDs are incredibly durable and are built with strong components that are very robust and can withstand even the most extreme weather conditions. Because LED lamps are also resistant to shock, vibration and external impact, they are the ideal outdoor lighting for harsh environments, even with external vandalism, traffic exposure and on construction sites.

6. No UV radiation

LED lighting emits little infrared light and even almost no UV radiation. This makes LEDs extremely suitable not only for goods and materials that are sensitive to heat but also for things that are sensitive to UV radiation, such as museums, art galleries, and archaeological sites.

7. Flexible design

LEDs can be combined in any form to produce efficient lighting. Individual LEDs can be dimmed, giving you dynamic control of light, color, and distribution. Professional configured LED systems can produce incredible lighting effects, not only for the eye but also for your mood and your mind.

8. Works in extreme hot or cold temperature conditions

LEDs are ideal for operating under cold and low outside temperatures. In contrast, fluorescent lamps have difficulty operating under low temperatures, which makes them a challenge. Fortunately, LED lighting also works well in cold environments, such as freezer rooms.
