BS EN 12464-1 (Light and lighting of workplaces, indoor). Colour-critical inspection areas benefit from a higher colour rendering index of 80 to 90 or above and a cooler colour temperature. Wash-down and dusty areas need sealed IP65 or IP66 fittings such as tri-proof battens. Values are a guide only. Speak to our lighting designers for site-specific calculations.

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about LED lighting for your factory led lights.

What is the best LED lighting for factories?

The best factory lighting is usually LED high bay fittings for the main production floor, paired with low bays or battens for lower-ceiling and ancillary areas, and IP-rated tri-proof fittings for wash-down or damp zones. Premium fittings with high efficiency, up to 200lm/W, sensor readiness and a 5000K output give bright, even light for safe, productive work. The right choice depends on your ceiling height, the tasks carried out and the environment, which is why we design every factory scheme individually.

How long do factory LED lights last?

Quality LED factory fittings typically last 50,000 to 100,000 hours, which for most sites means 10 years or more of use before output drops significantly. That is far longer than the metal halide or fluorescent fittings they replace, which often needed changing every year or two. In a factory with high roofs, that means far fewer access visits and much lower maintenance.

Can LED factory lights reduce energy costs?

Yes, significantly. Switching to LED can cut lighting energy costs by up to 80% against metal halide or fluorescent, and adding sensors, dimming and daylight controls saves more still in areas that are not always in use. For a factory running long shifts, that adds up to a substantial reduction in running costs, with the upfront investment usually recovered within two to three years.

Are LED lights suitable for high factory ceilings?

Yes, LED high bay fittings are designed specifically for high ceilings, typically above 6 metres, and are available with different beam angles to suit the mounting height and floor layout. Higher ceilings usually call for higher-output fittings and narrower beams to keep light even at floor level. We calculate the right wattage, beam angle and spacing for your ceiling height as part of the free design.

What lux levels does a factory need?

Under BS EN 12464-1, general assembly and production areas need around 300 lux, rising to 500 to 750 lux for fine assembly and inspection, and higher again for precision or colour-critical work. Storage areas need around 100 to 150 lux, and packing and dispatch around 300 lux. We confirm the right level for each area as part of your design.

Do you offer a free factory lighting design?

Yes. Send us your floor plan and ceiling height, and our team will produce a free lighting design, including fitting positions, wattages and predicted lux levels, so you know exactly what you need before ordering. It is the best way to get an accurate specification and quote for your factory.

Can factory lighting have sensors and controls?

Yes. Many of our high bay and batten fittings are sensor-ready or available with built-in microwave and PIR sensors, and dimmable versions work with DALI and 1-10V controls. Sensors and zoning cut energy use in aisles, stores and areas that are not always occupied, while keeping the main floor lit for safety.
