Efficiently and precisely illuminating shops
Linear lights, UFO lights are both efficient tools for the effective presentation of products, they can make shopping an enjoyable moment by having a good experience walking between corridors. With a good light design, we can decide which light would be the best and for which area, depending on the dimensions we can go for Linear lights or UFO lights, or both of them if the warehouse design is “exotic”. In order to do that we provide always a design with the best options for our customers, so they can decide which light they want to use.
Why are LED high Bay Lights a good choice for warehouses?
They are good for several reasons:
- Long Lifespan; they have a longer lifespan than traditional lighting options, which means they don’t need to be replaced so often.
- High lumen output; they can provide enough brightness to the warehouse areas; this is very important for warehouses that need to maintain a high level of visibility.
- Durability; LED lights are more durable than traditional lights.
- Flexibility; they have different color temperatures and beam angles which makes them very versatile for different warehouses designs.
- Energy efficiency; LED high bay lights are more efficient than traditional lighting options.
That is what it makes them a good choice for this type of application.
Type of lights for warehouses
UFO LED High Bay Light. – As their name suggests, they are round-shaped, usually hung from a hook. UFO lights if are not good places they can produce more or less light than they should, making them waste light and consume more electricity which is not good for the business, but if the shop has a round area, they will suit perfect.
Advantages of using UFO High Bay Lights:
- UFO lights have more range illumination, having better light distribution makes them good to maximize productivity.
- They have a good beam angle.
Disadvantages of using UFO High Bay Lights:

Considerations before buying LED lights
Big warehouses need high quality lighting to keep workers safe and factories productive. Lights no only need to be durable enough, they also should require minimal maintenance and be energy efficient.
Today’s LED lights use 2-3 times less energy than their predecessors and they require less maintenance as well, warehouses need to achieve rapid payback on investment with significantly better light quality and control.
Before choosing UFO lights or Linear lights you need to check the wattages of each light, the wattages are made for different heights.
On Hyperlite we have a lot of options so you can decide and all of our products have a long warranty so you don’t have to worry about any failure.
