Factory Lighting Guide

Understanding the right lighting that spaces like manufacturing plants, factories and other facilities need is very crucial for the owners as well as the electricians who carry out the process.

The process gets further complicated by the high risk of accidents and other hazards that exists in these spaces.

Both things complicate each other as poor lighting increases the risk factor significantly.

The Illuminations Engineers Society and American National Standards Institute have designed factory lighting standards that have been readily adopted by OSHA.

This means that there exist penalties for factories not in compliance with these standards.

A decent factory lighting design can revolutionise the way you and your staff work. Even if your systems are largely automated, having a well-lit floor can make inspections and cleaning much easier, keeping your machinery functioning as it should. Factory lighting also has a bigger impact on your budget than you think. Inefficient lighting can cost you thousands of pounds over the course of a year, especially if you have a large warehouse to illuminate. Energy-saving lighting solutions are the future of factories and all commercial sites, which is why, at Harled , we’re delighted to provide a free lighting survey for whenever suits you.
