What should the characteristics of shop lighting be? – LED luminaires
Purchasing decisions in shopping facilities are significantly affected by attractive and appropriately selected lamps. Therefore, in order to maintain a high quality of lighting it is necessary to ensure the requirements concerning its individual parameters are met. The basic terms that are essential when choosing lighting for showrooms are:
Glare factor UGR (<18)
Illuminance
Colour temperature
Energy-saving solutions
Colour rendering index CRI (>80)
These are, of course, only the most important ones. Each parameter should be matched to the room,the sales counter and the product on display.
Will LED lamps be suitable for general and workplace lighting in a shop?
Replacing traditional fluorescent lamps with energy-efficient LED luminaires is a guarantee of the many benefits in shop lighting. LED lamps are characterised by a high colour rendering index, making them ideal for general and spot lighting. This type of lighting, in contrast to the use of conventional incandescent lamps, generates a pleasant light for the customer and employee, reflecting the parameters of daylight. This is conducive to effective work as well as comfort for people in the retail space.
Lamps for sales counters – types.
There is no definite answer to the question of which lamps are best for a sales counter. It depends on where they are used and what products are being offered. LED lighting includes:
- Pendant lamps, mounted on slings,
e.g. linear luminaires of the Trunking LED type - surface-mounted industrial luminaires,
- floor lamps,
- light sources designed for installation in suspended ceilings,
- special-purpose lamps designed for precise work,
as well as other solutions. Note that shop, as well as warehouse lighting, can be provided with control solutions that can adjust the illuminance and save even more energy.

What is discomfort glare?
Every one of us has, on more than one occasion, experienced dazzling light, which, in practice, is known as discomfort glare. Commonly referred to as glare, this effect adversely affects the eyes, reducing vision and recognition.
Lumens to watts – how to convert the luminous flux?
The luminous flux of LED lighting is given in lumens. With traditional light sources, on the other hand, the luminous intensity was usually determined as the power they consumed in watts. To be able to at least compare the two sources to some extent, it is necessary to convert lumens to watts. Therefore, in this article we address this issue.
