An energy efficient, sustainable design is crucial to the efficiency, productivity, and even morale of a commercial environment. Regardless of your industry, sustainability is becoming an essential consideration in design, construction, and practice alike. By utilizing highly efficient LED light bulbs and fixtures in your commercial lighting system, you can reduce energy bills, reduce maintenance, and even improve your work atmosphere. Here are just a few reasons it’s time to update your commercial lighting system.

Energy Efficiency

Compared to traditional fluorescent light bulbs, LED lighting can help you save nearly 80% on energy use. This can have a dramatic effect on your energy bills while also reducing the cost of the lighting fixtures and bulbs themselves. LED light bulbs last much longer than traditional bulbs, so you’ll have to replace them much less often. These reliable lights are great for reducing energy costs and reducing the stress on your electrical system. Every change counts when it comes to increasing energy efficiency in your commercial building, so making the switch to LED lighting can have a significant impact.

Environmental Impact

Increasing your energy efficiency also means reducing your carbon footprint. Environmental sustainability is becoming more and more important to consumers, so reducing your use and doing your part to create an eco-friendly workplace is a great place to start. Updating your lighting system can have a major impact on your commercial building’s use of power, while also reducing the amount of waste associated with frequently changing fluorescent light bulbs. Conserve energy and help your business run more responsibly by updating your lighting system to use more environmentally friendly LED lights.

Improve Work Environment

New lighting is also a great way to improve the atmosphere in your commercial building. LED lights can mimic natural lighting, meaning no more harsh fluorescent lights washing out the color in your commercial environment. Additionally, flickering light bulbs are a common cause of headaches and migraines. LED lights don’t flicker, so they can make your workplace more pleasant by reducing headaches and associated stress. These changes can boost morale, having a positive impact on employee productivity and overall mood. After all, the right lighting can make a difference when it comes to making your commercial building a better place to work.
