THE STORY BEHIND THE ENTREPRENEUR

  26-01-2016  

THE STORY BEHIND THE ENTREPRENEUR     26 jan 2016 The eastern Netherlands is doing well economically. Who are the driving forces behind this success? Speaking today in The Stentor: Ton Reinders, director of Vocare Ledlight and Vocare Specialties. Of course there is a hall for storage, but Ton Reinders keeps his office at home: a characteristic dyke house on the river IJssel. Thatched roof, beams, wood stove. The lighting, however, is very modern: LED lamps in all shapes and sizes. Not surprising if you deal with Light Emitting Diodes on a daily basis. You weren't always in the LED lamps business? "That's right. I also dealt in plastics, for example. Trade and technology have always been the common thread in my life. Last I traded in stoves. That went well for a while, especially with the rise of the Internet. Because of...

LED verlichting in maneges en rijbakken

  24-08-2012  

LED Verlichting in maneges   Bij maneges is het benodigde lichtniveau afhankelijk van de doeleinden van de rijbak. Voor trainingen is 150-200lux nodig maar voor wedstrijden en springsport is een gemiddeld niveau van minimaal 300-350lux gewenst.   Uit onderzoek is gebleken dat verlichting invloed heeft op de vruchtbaarheid van paarden. Dus is het van belang dat de stallen uitgerust zijn met een uitgebalanceerd verlichtings systeem. Vocare Ledlight adviseerd een gemiddeld lichtniveau van 150-200lux.   Daarnaast zal een goed lichtniveau de haargroei tijdens de wintermaanden tot een minimum beperken.   Vocare Ledlight adviseerd per 2 boxen floodlight 80W te plaatsen en boven de rijbak Klokarmaturen.
