Trends in Commercial Lighting

Lighting can make or break your commercial space, whether it is an industrial building, medical office, or retail store. Without the proper lighting solutions, spaces could be dangerous, unattractive, and cause lower productivity in employees. Basically, things no business owner wants.  

Our commercial electricians understand the power that light can have in a space. Let’s shed some light on emerging trends in commercial lighting that you will not want to miss if you’re business is in growth mode!

LED Lighting 

In recent years, we have seen a shift away from incandescent and fluorescent lighting towards light-emitting diodes (LEDs). LED technology is advancing more quickly than any other type of light bulb that came before it.  

LEDs have surpassed all conventional lighting technologies in terms of energy efficiency, lifespan, versatility, and color quality.  

What makes LEDs great for commercial spaces is that they are brighter and produce better light quality than traditional lighting options. Further, not only are they cost-effective and energy-efficient, but they have dimming capability and low voltage applications which are perfect for a commercial setting.

Automated Accent Lighting 

Having the ability to transform the lighting in your commercial space at the press of a button can be used to attract, engage, and retain customers, especially in retail applications. Through increased control of their lighting fixtures, commercial businesses can now create new lighting settings and accent different areas that will make their space feel new and dynamic.  

Recently, many commercial property owners have been utilizing motion sensors with their exterior lighting to mitigate possible break-ins or theft. With a controlled lighting system, you can monitor every lighting application in your commercial space with your phone, computer, or tablet.

Human-Centric Lighting 

Many commercial spaces, from hospitals to office settings, are installing commercial lighting that is ‘human-centric' to improve the productivity and health of their employees, and the experience of their guests. 

Today, many commercial lighting options utilize technology that mimics natural light to follow our circadian rhythms. Natural light helps the circadian rhythm stimulate or suppress the body’s natural hormones while enhancing the emotional, visual, and physical needs of employees and customers alike.  

Tip: Generally, cool white light color temperatures in the 3500K-5000K range are perfect in work settings and offices during the day, and warm white light color temperatures in the 1800K-2700K range work well for residential settings at night.

Landscape & Outdoor Lighting 

The experience with your commercial property does not just start when a customer walks through your front doors, it starts as soon as they park in front of your building or walk up to it. Therefore, many commercial businesses are turning their attention to outdoor lighting applications.  

Outdoor lighting can be used to design and enhance outdoor spaces, provide security, improve brand recognition, create ambiance, increase curb appeal, and more!

Low Voltage Infrastructure 

The emergence of LED lighting fixtures has revolutionized the way we think about lighting infrastructures. Now, LED lighting fixtures can be powered by a single CAT 6 network cable. This is significant because all the lighting in your commercial space could be powered with a 12/24/48 volt cable rather than the 120v of a traditional high-voltage infrastructure.
