Fact OR fiction? In 2012 the United States enacted legislature that will completely phase out the production of incandescent light bulbs. By the end of this year 40, 60, 75, and 100-watt bulbs will no longer be produced.
FACT!
These changes are having a revolutionary impact on everything from the environment to helping businesses save money with more efficient and better quality lighting options. One of the industries that is seeing some of the largest return on investment (ROI) is manufacturing.
1. Tax Savings
By switching from traditional bulbs to manufacturing lighting from LED sources, businesses can see benefits in tax savings, energy rebates, longer lighting life, and huge energy savings.
2. Longer Lighting Lifespan
Manufacturing plants around the world are seeing up to an 85% cost reduction and an increased lifespan of their lighting up to 60,000 hours.
3. Worker Productivity
One noticeable and unexpected benefit that businesses are achieving from LED lighting is in the area of worker productivity. In addition to being great for the environment and even better for the balance sheet, LED lights seem to cause much less eye strain in manufacturing facilities. So workers are reporting far less fatigue from the more efficient lighting, and it is estimated that they are somewhere between six to eight percent more productive because of it.
At Relumination, we help companies from many different industries, including manufacturing, to reduce energy costs; lower maintenance expenses; decrease their environmental footprint; and improve their quality of light through energy-efficient lighting solutions. No company is too big or too small. We would love to hear from you!
