Investing in proper LED lighting is one of the most important decision for any business owner. This lighting solution reduces the business’s energy costs, enhances productivity and provides a cleaner and greener environment. LED lighting is far more durable, efficient, longer lasting and versatile when designed well. The cost of making the change over is reimbursed through the energy savings it offers.

Why Choose Office Led Lighting

1. Cost Savings

When comparing office LED lighting to traditional incandescent solutions, there is no comparison. When it comes to the incandescent bulbs, replacing the bulbs, the time to replace them and the labor expense is where the true cost lies. These are major factors, particularly in the office setting where there are a large number of bulbs installed. When you consider office buildings and skyscrapers, the costs for replacing the bulbs and maintenance are enormous. LED lighting virtually eliminates these issues.

The Clinton Climate Initiative, back in February 2009, replaced over 140,000 Los Angeles street lights with energy-saving LED lighting. Today, the city of Los Angeles is now saving over $5 million annually because of this investment, and it is expected to increase to a $7.5 million annual savings once there is an upgrade to the LED fixtures.

2. Power Consumption

Reduced power consumption is one major strength of LEDs. A LED circuit, when designed correctly, will reach around 80% efficiency, meaning that 80% of this energy converts to light energy. The other 20% is a loss in heat energy. With the incandescent bulbs, it is the opposite; you get 80% lost to heat energy and only 20% efficiency.

3. Non-toxic and Greener than Other Sources

Aside from the remarkable efficiency, energy savings and lifespan, office LED lighting is also a greener solution for today’s market. First, LEDs do not contain Mercury like the CFLs which is highly toxic and very harmful to our health and environment.

Second, LEDs are 100% recyclable and made with toxic free materials. They also help reduce up to a third of your carbon footprint. When it comes to environmental change and global warming, LED lighting releases significantly less CO2, nuclear waste and sulfur oxide. When compared with 30 incandescent bulbs which releases around 2500 kg’s of these emissions annually, the LEDs only release around 200 kg’s a year.
