ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY Fluorescent lighting contains mercury. LEDs do not. This makes LEDs safer both to use and dispose of. The mercury contained in just one fluorescent lamp is enough to contaminate 30,000 litres of water beyond safe drinking level limits. Fluorescent lamps are therefore classified as ‘hazardous waste’.
SAFE LIGHTING
LEDs emit minimal Ultra Violet light (UV). UV light attracts insects and can be harmful to skin, clothing and artwork. Heat emissions are greatly reduced with LED, which means they are cool to touch and perfect for heat sensitive applications
DURABILITY
LEDs do not contain a filament that can be damaged by shock and vibration – making LED one of the most stable light sources available.

COST EFFECTIVE The true cost of fluorescent lighting is not only in its energy consumption. There is also maintenance over its lifetime, replacement labour and lamp outlay, and disposal costs. With LED, these costs don’t exist. LED is a Fit-&- Forget solution.
INSTANT LIGHT
LEDs produce 100% light instantly, with none of the warm up time required by fluorescents.
LONG LIFE
The life of LED is between 4 and 40 times greater than traditional products. What’s more, they produce consistent light output over their entire life.
