In a modern factory, lighting is not just about “being able to see clearly” but is also a critical factor in improving production efficiency, ensuring occupational safety, and optimizing operating costs. If you are a business owner, technical manager, or simply responsible for infrastructure, understanding LED lighting solutions for factories is something you cannot overlook. So how does lighting affect the working environment in a factory? What are the criteria for choosing the right LED industrial lights? Let’s explore these questions with NLT Group below.

Why is factory lighting important?

The role of lighting in factories

Lighting in a factory can be compared to a “second set of lungs,” after the ventilation system, helping ensure continuous, precise, and safe operations for workers throughout production shifts.

Unlike office or residential lighting, factory environments typically:

• Have high ceilings ranging from 6 to 12 meters or more
• Operate continuously with multiple shifts
• Contain machinery, dust, humidity, or harsh working conditions

Therefore, investing in a properly designed factory lighting system not only ensures clear visibility but also enhances overall operational efficiency.

Impact on productivity, safety, and costs

Did you know that insufficient or poorly chosen lighting can cause eye strain, operational errors, or slower reaction times for workers? This is why many businesses choose high-quality LED industrial lights to achieve:

• Higher productivity: Bright, clear spaces allow workers to perform tasks faster and more accurately.
• Improved safety: Good lighting helps identify obstacles early and reduces the risk of collisions or slips.
• Lower long-term costs: Modern LED factory lighting consumes less energy, has a longer lifespan, and requires less maintenance.

In short, factory lighting is not merely a technical issue but a comprehensive challenge tied to production efficiency, product quality, and worker health.

Criteria for selecting LED lights for factories

Not every type of light is suitable for factory use. Below are key criteria to consider before investing in an LED lighting system.

Luminous efficacy (lm/W) and appropriate wattage

Luminous efficacy, measured in lumens per watt (lm/W), indicates how efficiently a light converts electricity into illumination. The higher the efficacy, the greater the energy savings.

• Modern LED factory lights typically achieve 120 to 160 lm/W
• Common wattages range from 50 W to 300 W, depending on ceiling height and lighting area

Color rendering index (CRI) and color temperature (CCT)

CRI (Color Rendering Index) measures how accurately colors appear under a light source. For factories, a CRI of 80 or higher is recommended so workers can clearly distinguish details and product colors.

CCT (Correlated Color Temperature) usually falls within:

• 4000 K: neutral light that is comfortable for the eyes
• 5000 K to 6500 K: cool white light that is sharp and suitable for precision manufacturing environments

Note: Avoid warm yellow light in technical work areas, as it can distort true color perception.

IP rating, lifespan, and durability

Factory lighting should withstand dust, moisture, vibration, chemicals, and high temperatures.

• IP65 or higher for full dust protection and strong water resistance
• Die-cast aluminum housing with good heat dissipation and anti-corrosion coating
• LED chip lifespan of 50,000 hours or more, equivalent to 10 to 12 years of use at 12 hours per day

Using low-quality lights may lead to electrical faults, frequent failures, or rapid lumen depreciation after only a few months.

Control capabilities (dimming, sensors, IoT)

In the era of Industry 4.0, factory lighting is no longer just about switching lights on and off. It has become part of a smart operational system. Useful control features include:

• Dimming to adjust brightness based on schedules or natural light conditions
• Motion sensors that automatically turn lights on when people are present, reducing energy use in low-traffic areas
• IoT connectivity to monitor energy consumption and control lighting groups via apps or centralized software systems

Introducing three flagship LED industrial lighting products from NLT Lighting

NLT Lighting is one of the pioneering providers in Vietnam of professional industrial lighting solutions, offering a wide range of LED luminaires specifically designed for demanding operating conditions in manufacturing environments. Below are three representative products that are widely used in factories, warehouses, and industrial parks.

LLF0058A industrial LED light

This is a traditional linear LED fixture designed to industrial standards, featuring high durability and uniform illumination. It is suitable for production facilities with medium to high ceiling heights.

Key features:

• Robust housing with efficient heat dissipation, easy to install in continuous rows or grouped layouts.
• Common power range from 100 W to 200 W, providing clear and evenly distributed lighting over large areas.
• High luminous efficacy of approximately 130 to 150 lm/W, delivering significant energy savings.
• Dust and water resistance rated at IP65, ideal for environments with oil mist, fine dust, or high humidity.
• Average lifespan of up to 50,000 hours, equivalent to around 10 years of stable operation.

LLF0058A is a reliable, cost effective, and durable choice for businesses looking to upgrade existing factory lighting systems without major structural changes.

UFO X2 round high bay LED light (100 W, 150 W, 200 W)

The UFO X2 series combines a modern design, powerful illumination, and excellent thermal management. It is specifically designed for high ceiling factories ranging from 8 to 15 meters, where high illuminance, focused light distribution, and continuous operation are required.

Outstanding advantages:

• Compact round design, suitable for independent suspension or mounting on lighting tracks.
• High efficiency LED chips with luminous efficacy of 140 to 160 lm/W.
• Available in three power options, 100 W, 150 W, and 200 W, allowing flexible configuration for different zones.
• Meanwell power supply with surge protection and electrical safety features, ensuring stable operation even under voltage fluctuations.
• Superior heat resistance and thermal dissipation, extending lifespan up to 60,000 hours.

For factories with high ceilings that require maximum performance and a clean, modern appearance, the UFO X2 is a strong option to consider.
