Lighten Up Your Business


Office lighting Overview

An important but often overlooked part of decorating an office is office lighting. There are many ways of illuminating an office. There is natural lighting, where you have big wide windows and skylights in the roof to let daylight in. There is ordinary lighting, where you let standard ceiling lights serve as your office lighting. Then there is specialized lighting. This involves a sort of lighting design aesthetics. Environmental impact could be considered, as well as proper illumination for task areas as opposed to other more general areas.

Here is where lighting products can help you.

Illuminating the Office

Office lighting products can be divided into three major topics:

• Light fixtures- In this category are all the different kinds of table and desk lamps, the ceiling lights, the recessed lights, the lights for shelving, the under-the-cabinet light fixtures.

• Light bulbs-these include replacement bulbs, fluorescent bulbs, LED lamps, energy saving bulbs.

• Office Lighting Accessories- Light switches, cables and wires, mounting hardware, office lighting parts, all the peripherals of lighting belong to this category.

Bright Tools for Lighting Design

There are always companies and brands that stand out in their fields. Equipping your office with the time tested office lighting fixtures and bulbs will eliminate the process of experimentation.

Light fixtures

• Verilux, Kitchler, Adesso, and Normande Lighting all have a line of functional and attractive desk lamps for office lighting. These desk lamps are useful for task lighting. With these, you can control illumination on just your work area.

• Ledu, Ace, ESI Ergonomic, and HON have different designs of under-the-cabinet lighting. These are useful for some office environments. The lighting is installed under shelf space, cabinets, and the like.

• Fontana Arte has a line of recessed lighting. Recessed office lighting is a modern approach to office lighting. They are usually pre-planned lighting fixtures. The preparation will start with the building or renovation of a space.

Light bulbs

The competitive brands for light bulbs are:

• General Electric-one of the oldest companies to make
light bulbs, General Electric is a trusted name in office
lighting.

• Philips-Philips is to be commended for taking the huge leap to
LED lighting technology. It has plenty of options for your office
lighting needs using LED.

• Westinghouse-together with GE, Westinghouse is an old hand
in producing lightbulbs. It has an impressive line of bulbs from
incandescent to flood lights to fluorescent to general purpose
lighting.

• Sylvania- Sylvania is also an old company and has the same
strengths as the others in the market. However, this one
concentrates itself on the fashion and style front.

Always look for the new energy saving bulbs when lighting your office. These are initially more costly but will save you money on electricity bills and on longevity of the bulb.

Accessories

There are various office lighting accessories to help you with the lighting design system of your workplace. Usually, the brands you use will be the same ones for your office lighting fixtures.
