hospital lighting

In recent years, there are more and more questions about the consequences of SLE on health. Incandescent lamps have been banned today, and LED is now popular. With 10 years of the average life, this technology saves you money compared to previous lighting technologies. But the question is: What are the effects of LED on health? Explanations.
It is important to know the difference between LED lighting and other lighting sources.

What are the effects of incandescent bulbs on your health?

We all know incandescent bulbs. Pleasant and warm lighting, but very short life and very bad for the environment (excess of heat release, rapid decline in performance). They are very harmful to health because of the chemical elements that make them up. From now on, these are no longer produced.

What effects do fluorescent tubes have on our health?

If lighting is really bad for our health, it is the fluorescent lamps. With the flickering and flickering light, our eyes are permanently affected without our being aware of it. It is therefore recommended to replace 'old TL tubes' with LED tubes. With LED tubes, you will no longer suffer from the flickering of light because it is much more stable, much better for the eyes and health.

What are the effects of Energy Saving Lamps (CFLs) on health?

Energy-saving lamps look really innocent at first glance. They are full of mercury. If one of the lamps breaks, the toxic fumes can remain in the air for weeks. In addition, energy-saving light bulbs emit electromagnetic radiation, which can also cause major health problems if you are close to them.

What effects do halogen bulbs have on your health?

Halogen bulbs contain heavy metals that can be released into the air only if they break. The danger is in the transformer. It emits small electromagnetic radiation. These radiations are very harmful to health and continue to emit even after the lamp is extinguished

And, about the harmfulness of light itself?


The light of the bulb is largely responsible for whether or not the light is harmful to health. Until a few years ago, we only knew blue or light for LEDs. Fortunately, this is no longer relevant. The LED is now available in beautifully warm and pleasant colors. However, this light blue light causes a disruption of sleep patterns with consequent consequences. Modern LED lighting as it is known today is just as safe in a light color as incandescent lamps and much healthier than lighting for laptops, phones, and tablets.



In conclusion, is the LED light harmful to health?

LED lighting has far fewer disadvantages than most other light technologies. The only source of lighting that can be worth on LED lighting in terms of health consequences is the good old incandescent bulb, but it has been removed from the market. In addition, all LED bulbs are improving and all lamps are equipped with the necessary safety requirements with also the color and intensity of light. These standards only apply in Europe, so make sure where your LED lights come from. In our case, we have LED products that comply with all European standards and ensure better health!
