When it comes to the food and beverage industry, suitably designed LEDs have many advantages over most legacy lighting technologies, such as no glass or other breakable materials that could contaminate food products, as well as improved light output and efficiency at the low temperatures of cold storage.
Add the benefits of low maintenance, longer life (50,000 hours), no toxic mercury, higher efficacies, wide-ranging dimmability and control, instant-on performance, and a broad range of operating temperatures; then one can begin to appreciate the versatility of LEDs in one of the most demanding industries.
Additionally it has been proven that LED light significantly reduces the number of bacteria bred compared to halogen or fluorescent bulbs.As such LED Lighting is widely used in supermarkets and in the food and beverage industry .
