Free LED High Bay Lights for Warehouses, Manufacturing Units & Factories
In recent times, high bays have been the most widely replaced product under the VEU (VEET) scheme. Such types of lights are mostly found in commercial setups. Warehouses, storage areas, industries (any scale), retail, processing units, manufacturing units, factories, stadiums are some common examples. The non-LED high bays usually have a 400W mercury vapor or metal halide bulb, resulting in high electricity consumption.
Not only these lights consume high wattage but also create a huge amount of heat causing workplace fire. This makes them one of the most important products in the VEU upgrade program when it comes to switching from non-LED to LED lights.
Why LED High Bays?
Industries, manufacturing unit, storage unit, factories – names itself bring up a picture of big units, with a big job, with big commitments, lots of manpower, no time to waste and with lots and lots of lights, big lights! Most such units are lightly staffed on maintenance, and no one wants to be working on the lights all the time.

Because of the size and capacity of these places, one can imagine the energy consumed to keep them running. The major type of lights used for illuminance are called high bays. They are notoriously known for unnatural orange glow, insufficient light output, short lifespan, heat output, high maintenance and potential danger from mercury exposure.

One of our customer’s narrated times when high bays -would frequently dim out. Probably about more than once a year they had to have somebody go up and change bulbs on them. Something to note – high bays get their name because of the fact that they are placed high up in the ceiling and it’s not an easy task to get the lights fixed or replaced. One needs a scissor or boom lift to get the task done which itself is a big cost.

Before LED high bays some of the units would once every year-and-a-half to two years with conventional lighting, change old lamps – relamp the facility or swap out entire fixtures. It is said that one broken bulb can put workers at risk of mercury exposure that can cause severe toxicity symptoms, some that can have lifelong implications.

LED High bays/fixtures contain zero mercury or other harmful chemicals, making them a much safer alternative in industrial applications. By virtue of their long-life performance, reduced maintenance, and improved visibility, LED high bays are an important consideration when it comes to the short-term safety and long-term health of industrial workers.

Most of us acknowledge benefits of LED high bays, but we’ve come across many clients who would turn down the LED upgrade offer because of the initial cost involved. What has really turned around things is free installation under the VEU government program. Because these are the only industrial lights that consume maximum energy when compared to other conventional lights such as fluroes, low bays, etc.
