Technical Specs & Certifications
Display shelves with integrated LED lighting require precise technical specifications to ensure optimal visual presentation, energy efficiency, and durability. At Beauty (STC) Manufacturing Co., Ltd., our LED lighting solutions for display shelves are engineered with a focus on high performance, reliability, and aesthetic precision.
Our standard LED modules designed for display shelving achieve a luminous efficacy of 110 to 130 lumens per watt, ensuring energy-efficient operation without compromising light output. This range allows for bright, uniform illumination across product surfaces while minimizing power consumption—ideal for retail environments where lighting runs for extended periods.
Color Rendering Index (CRI) is a critical factor in display lighting, as accurate color representation enhances product appeal. All our LED solutions for display applications maintain a CRI greater than 90, with options available up to CRI 95+. This high color fidelity ensures that textiles, cosmetics, food, and other merchandise appear vibrant and true to their natural tones under the lit environment.
In terms of environmental protection, our LED systems are rated at a minimum of IP20 for internal dry locations. For display shelves in more demanding environments—such as in kitchens, bathrooms, or refrigerated displays—we offer configurations with IP44 or IP54 ratings, providing protection against dust and moisture ingress. These higher-rated fixtures are sealed and constructed with robust materials to maintain long-term performance in variable conditions.
