How To Choose The Right Type of Lighting For Your Warehouse
The lighting in your warehouse is very important and it must be designed with two goals in mind: increased productivity and better safety for your employees. Consulting with a professional lighting expert is one of the best ways to ensure that your warehouse lighting is working optimally for you.
Here are 3 tips to follow when choosing your warehouse lighting:
1. Install Lighting Controls
If you are looking for a way to make your warehouse safer and more effective, while cutting down on energy costs, then you should consider installing some lighting controls. Putting motion sensors which switch off the lights automatically when movement isn’t detected will prevent high electric bills and energy waste.
2. Choose The Lighting Product Carefully
With so many new advancements in lighting technology, it can be quite challenging to decide which lighting product is right for your warehouse. Some of the options business owners have today, include:
- LED lights. LED lights are a favorite for warehouses because they can be customized for your space and they give you instant access to light while also being more energy efficient than any other lighting product and boasting a long lifespan.
- Linear Fluorescents. Linear fluorescents are cheaper than LED lights and have been used in warehouses safely for many years. However, their lifespan is shorter than LEDs so they’ll need to be replaced more often.
- Natural Light. Natural light has been shown to boost employee productivity and happiness and it’s a great way to compliment your other sources of light. It is the cheapest form of lighting and can be done by adding a skylight or additional windows to your space.

There are specific tasks performed in a warehouse that require very good lighting, such as reading packages or picking stock. By using task lighting for such duties, you’ll be able to reduce the number of errors made, improve customer satisfaction, and enhance productivity.
