What you need to know about LED lighting
Replacing ordinary lamps with LED lighting has many advantages.
In recent years, much innovation has taken place in the various LED products such as LED floodlights, LED construction lamps, LED TL, etc.
The advantages of LED lighting at a glance:
Long life: up to 100,000 burning hours
Low energy consumption: save 70% on your energy consumption
The LED lamp hardly gets warm
The LED lamp is vibration and shock resistant
The LED lamp can withstand fast on and off
Different color temperatures possible, ranging from cool to warm white (ambient lighting)
No UV radiation, ensures a healthier working environment
Assembly benefits: no starters, ballasts or extra parts
Sustainable business: less CO2 emissions, no sulfur production and fully recyclable
The LED lamp is also available as a dimmable lamp

What is LED?
LED stands for Light Emitting Diode, in Dutch: light-emitting diode. In short, it is an electronic light source that does not use combustion (like a light bulb).
A LED lamp is based on the technology of an electronic part that starts to light up by the flow of a light or weak current. By bundling these closely together and reinforcing them with a few miniature mirrors or otherwise, a real energy-saving alternative to classic light bulbs can be obtained. Not only do they consume up to eight times less energy than ordinary, classic lamps, but they also emit at least the same intensity of light. It is therefore self-evident that these will represent a significant saving on your energy bill.
The average payback time for LED lamps is 1 to 2 years.
Lifespan
The LED products have a lifespan of up to approximately 100,000 burning hours. Compare a classic light bulb only lasts 1,000 burning hours and an energy-saving lamp 6,000 burning hours.
Affordable quality
Quality is a comprehensive concept for us. It is not only about the purely technical quality of LED products, but also about matters such as service and reliability.
All the products recommended by us meet the highest quality requirements and have undergone a strict quality test before we offer them.
We advise LED lamps from TOP suppliers so that we can always offer a perfectly suitable solution with the best quality LED fluorescent lighting.
The price you pay for the LED lamp will be recovered in 2 years due to the savings on your energy bill. In addition, you save on the purchase of replacement lamps due to the much longer lifespan.
Rule of thumb with LED lighting
LED lighting provides a saving of € 4.00 per m2 of business area.
Replacement and maintenance
The replacement and maintenance costs of older lighting are € 2.50 per m2 per year.
The replacement costs of LED lamps are € 1.00 per m2 per year.
Investment
The investment for LED lighting is on average € 5.00 per m2.
Payback period
The payback period for LED lighting is usually within 2 years.
Practical to use
LED lamps hardly wear out with use. This means you have to replace your lamps much less often and you save on the costs of maintaining your lighting. You no longer have to regularly screw in a new lamp in hard-to-reach or high places.
Due to the low heat development in the LED lamp, you will never again be bothered by the lamp burning yourself (or your child). In addition, there is no risk of fire and you save on the costs of the air conditioning.
The LED lamp does not need a warm-up time, it only takes a fraction of a second before the lamp gives full light output.
Outdoor lighting
In general, LED floodlights and e.g. LED lamppost fixtures can be used with an air temperature between -40 degrees Celsius and +40 degrees Celsius. Direct sunlight on a fixture can cause much higher temperatures. As a result, outdoor lighting should be fitted with a circuit to prevent overheating. Think of an astro clock or daylight sensor. The warranty on outdoor lighting lapses if the customer has failed to take precautions against overheating due to direct sunlight or if fixtures are set up with an ambient temperature higher than +40 degrees Celsius.
Friendly to the environment
Because there is virtually no heat development with LED lighting, and due to the favorable energy consumption, a reduction in CO2 emissions can be achieved.
