What should you pay attention to when purchasing lamps for livestock buildings, plant and mushroom cultivation, and industrial facilities?

LED lighting in poultry farms – poultry, welfare and efficiency

In case of poultry farms and hen houses, the key parameters are: no flickering, because birds see at a very high frequency. Flickering causes stress, aggression, lower immunity, and more falls.

Suitable light color (2700–3000K for layers, 4000K for broilers) and the possibility dimming They provide birds with conditions that closely mimic natural conditions, ensuring efficient breeding and higher production. Day length will vary depending on the type of breeding, for example, the photoperiod in a rearing facility will be longer than in layers and broilers.

Equally important is uniformity of lighting and appropriate intensity (20–100 lux)which influences behavior, feed intake and production results. Well-chosen LED lamps for the hen house improve welfare, stabilize the daily cycle and increase breeding efficiency.

High luminous efficiency ensures lower energy bills compared to all other lighting solutions available on the market.

It is also very important to ensure that the lamp has a hermetic construction and is made of materials that will perform well in difficult conditions of moisture, dust, ammonia and periodic pressure washing. LX1200KR+ lamp  meets all these requirements and remains one of the most affordable solutions on the market. We offer a 5-year warranty!

Pigsty Lighting – Pigs and Environmental Conditions

In pigsties the most important things are: ammonia and moisture resistance (IP65+), stable light intensity depending on the type of farming (completely different intensities are required in the fattening house and in the weaning house) and no flickering, which also indirectly has a positive effect on pigs, compared to low-quality fluorescent and LED lamps.

Additionally, it is important light color: we recommend neutral or cool white (4000–6500K)), which make it easier to find food, less stress related to the myopia of pigs and ease of color recognition, which has a positive effect on their welfare. LED control and dimming allows the light to be adjusted to the production cycle, but in the case of these livestock facilities it is not necessary.

In the field of lighting, the energy efficiency of the lamps is again a crucial aspect, as it determines the amount of energy consumed. For pigsty, depending on the anticipated investment outlay: a cheaper version can be envisaged LX1500JA lamp or a more expensive version LX1200KR lamp (includes a 5-year warranty and is dimmable). If you're unsure which version is best for you, please contact us! We'll be happy to help you choose the best livestock lamps.

LED lamps for barns – cattle, comfort and production stability

In barns it is of key importance length of daylight, appropriate light intensity (min. 150 lux) and uniformity of lighting, which affect milk production and the cattle's circadian rhythm. Uneven light causes stress, unnecessary competition for the brightest parts of the barn, and decreased productivity.

It is also important tightness of the fittings (IP65 or higher) to moisture, dust and ammonia and the possibility dimming, which provides cows with information that bedtime is approaching. Neutral or cool color (4000–6500K) makes it easier for cattle to eat, reduces the risk of injury and ensures the safety of the farmer and employees.

Even though cattle have very slow eyesight, light plays a crucial role in their hormonal management. Therefore, it is worth equipping yourself with barn lampswhich do not flicker, have high luminous efficiency (energy-saving solution) and lighting controllers that will reduce stress. Depending on the height, we offer several solutions: for low or low-level halls – LX1500JA lamp, for halls with an installation height of over 5 m – Highbay Q-series 80W and for halls with an installation height of over 7 m – more powerful versions of the Highbay Q-series lamp available in our store.

Stable – lighting for horses and work safety

In livestock facilities such as stable the key are: warm light color (2700–3000K), no flickering and IP65 tightness or higherHorses are very sensitive to sudden changes in lighting, so the ability to gently dim and brighten it is important to reduce their stress.

However, it should be remembered that lighting in stables is not as important as lighting in a hen house, for example, but it can support the regeneration of animals and is very important for the management of the farm.

A good LED solution would be LX1200KR lamp as daylight lighting, while red lamps can be used at night LX1200KRR lamp.

Greenhouses – specialized lighting systems

In greenhouses, it is crucial appropriate light spectrum (e.g. blue-red), which directly affects photosynthesis and plant development. It is important resistance to high humidity and water jets IP65+. High the luminous efficiency will translate on crop efficiency – faster growth and higher yields.

Lighting for mushroom and other fungi cultivation facilities

In mushroom farms it is important resistance to high temperatures (up to 70–80°C), because mushroom farms are regularly disinfected with hot steam. Good light scattering ensures uniform conditions across the entire cultivation area and reduces the glare of light sources, which is irritating for harvesters and prevents long hours of work in such an environment.

Compactness This is important due to the narrow aisles in which harvest carts are moved. This exposes the installed lamps to damage, but our mushroom grower lamp models are designed for this and are impact-resistant.

We ensured the highest quality of lamps for mushroom farms – very high light dispersion, resistance to high temperatures, tightness up to IP69, minimal cross-sectional dimensions and high luminous efficiency. We present dedicated solutions for mushroom farms.

Warehouses – efficient LED lamps

In warehouses and halls, wide ranges are crucial illuminance (50–500 lux), depending on the warehouse zones resulting from the activities carried out within a given zone. High uniformity and intensity impact employee safety and productivity. This is best achieved through well-designed lighting in a dedicated lighting simulation program.

Also important are sensors, control systems and luminous efficiency, which help reduce energy consumption. The lamp's dust-proof design and 5-year warranty ensure years of peace of mind and reduced maintenance.

Solutions Highbay Q-series These versatile fixtures are ideal for warehouse applications. A wide selection of power, sensors, accessories, heights, and mounting options ensures easy system customization to meet customer expectations.

Production halls – high-quality LED technology

In production halls, wide ranges are crucial illuminance (50–1500 lux), depending on the workstation. Therefore, the most important aspect is a well-prepared lighting design. Meeting the requirements of all zones, all workstations, and the safety requirements of a production hall is most often achieved by using high-power LED lamps for general lighting and lower-power, low-hanging lamps for task lighting.

Lamps should have a tightness level of IP65 or higher, and luminous efficiency also plays a key role in this case, as lamps in production halls are subject to intensive use.

Outdoor lighting and social rooms

In outdoor lighting, it is crucial water and dust resistance (IP65+), appropriate light intensity (10–100 lux) and uniformity ensuring safety on access roads, communication routes, parking lots and maneuvering areas.

Application motion and twilight sensors allows you to additionally optimize energy consumption and increase the functionality of the system.

Summary – Why Invest in Professional LED Lighting? The Benefits of LED Lighting and Good Design

Selecting the right lamps for livestock, crop or industrial buildings should regularly take into account parameters such as: light intensity, color, uniformity, IP tightness, no flickering and the possibility of control.

These are the elements that determine whether lighting will actually support production, animal welfare, and improve employee safety and comfort.
