LED Highbays

What is an LED highbay and when do you choose it

LED highbays are powerful industrial fixtures specially designed for spaces with high ceilings. Think of warehouses, production areas, sports halls, and large workshops. In these types of environments, standard lighting is insufficient to illuminate the floor surface properly and evenly.

A highbay is usually applied from a mounting height of approximately 4 meters. Due to the high light output and focused light distribution, visibility remains comfortable even at greater heights. This makes LED highbays suitable for both functional work environments and large open spaces where safety and overview are important.

UFO or linear highbay, how to make the right choice

Within LED highbays, there are two commonly used designs, each with its own application.

UFO highbays for open spaces

UFO highbays have a compact, round design and are often used in open spaces such as warehouses and sports halls. They emit light evenly all around and are ideal when there are few obstacles under the fixture. Due to their shape, they are easy to mount and suitable for greater heights.

Linear highbays for shelving and aisles

Linear highbays have an elongated shape and are widely used in warehouses with shelving or production areas with fixed work zones. They provide a wider and more directed light distribution, illuminating aisles and work surfaces better. This prevents shadow formation and improves visibility during work.

Saving energy with LED highbays

Many LED highbays are used as replacements for traditional industrial lighting, such as HQL or HID fixtures. By switching to LED lighting, energy consumption can be significantly reduced while maintaining or even improving light output.

Besides energy savings, you also benefit from lower maintenance costs. LED highbays have a long lifespan and are designed for continuous use, making them suitable for environments where lighting is often on for extended periods.

Suitable for professional and intensive use

LED highbays are often applied in environments where reliability is essential. Think of logistics centers, production halls, and sports facilities. Therefore, many models are available with options such as sensors for automatic switching or reflectors for focused light beams.

For situations where lighting must perform stably and continuously, there are also versions with high-quality drivers. This contributes to consistent light quality and a longer lifespan of the fixture.

Choosing LED highbays with confidence

When choosing the right LED highbay, factors such as ceiling height, space layout, and usage intensity play an important role. By carefully considering the application and type of space beforehand, you avoid installing too much or too little light.

Within this category, you will find an overview of various LED highbays, so you can easily compare and choose the right solution for your situation.
