Benefits of LED lighting in the office

Installing LED lighting in your office brings several benefits. LED lighting is a lot more energy efficient and lasts longer. Ocab LED lamps have a lifespan of 50,000 hours or more. As a result, you save significantly on energy bills each month, as well as on replacement costs each year.

It is good to think about installing dimmable lights and LED panels that work on a sensor for the office. Then, when no one is in the office, the lights won’t accidentally stay on longer than necessary, again saving you money.

Office lighting for all spaces

In offices, there are often several areas: in addition to the workplace, there is also the coffee corner, lunch area, kitchen, toilets and in some cases, for example, a game hall for active breaks. Each of these spaces needs different lighting with the well-being of employees in mind. In the workplace, it’s nice to mimic daylight in the general lighting and make it bright enough that you don’t have to sit bent over at your computer with a crooked back. In the lunch room, it is good to look at how light affects food. And in the coffee corner, it can be nice to express a warm atmosphere so that during the coffee break people actually feel like they can relax for a while. That makes lighting for offices need to be carefully thought out for each room. This way you have the right LED lighting in every room of the office. This prevents poor lighting from reducing the energy efficiency of staff. With the right office lighting, you can increase productivity.

Ocab’s tips for office lighting

When you start taking a sharp look at office lighting in your office, there are several aspects to consider. We would like to highlight some of the most important tips in advance….

Choose the right temperature: warm or cold lighting.
Get lamps with the ideal lux: the amount of light coming from the lighting. 1 lux is equivalent to 1 lumen/m2.
Go for sustainable lighting by installing LED lighting and save on energy bills.
Take into account screen lighting of the computers being worked on. There should not be a big difference in the brightness of the screen and the light falling on the workstation because of eye strain. We are happy to advise you on this.
Be sure to read up on the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment’s website about current workplace lighting guidelines.
Do you have old fluorescent or T5 light lines and are considering switching to LED? We are happy to calculate the payback period for you. In many cases, you will earn it back in as little as 2 years!
