Technical Specs & Certifications
Beauty STC Manufacturing Co., Ltd. designs and produces LED hallway lighting solutions engineered for optimal performance, safety, and longevity in commercial and institutional environments. Our technical specifications are rigorously validated through internal testing and independent third-party certification to meet or exceed global standards. For hallway applications, we prioritize efficiency, color fidelity, and environmental resilience.
Luminous efficacy for our standard LED hallway fixtures consistently achieves 110–130 lumens per watt at 25°C ambient temperature. This range is attained through the strategic integration of high-efficiency SMD LED packages (typically 2835 or 3030 types) coupled with precision-engineered optical systems and thermally optimized aluminum housings. Our drivers operate at ≥92% efficiency, contributing to the overall lm/W performance while ensuring stable output across the full 120–277V AC input range. All efficacy claims are LM-79 tested and documented in IES files provided with each product line.
Color Rendering Index (CRI) is non-negotiable for hallway safety and user comfort. Beauty STC fixtures exclusively utilize LEDs with a minimum CRI of 92 (Ra) and R9 >50, verified under TM-30-15 methodology. This ensures accurate perception of skin tones, signage, and potential hazards like spills or debris. We achieve this through phosphor-converted LEDs with tightly binned chromaticity (SDCM ≤3 steps) and spectral power distributions optimized for human-centric lighting. Every production batch undergoes spectroradiometric validation to maintain consistency.
IP ratings are selected based on hallway exposure risks. Our standard dry-location hallway fixtures carry IP44 certification, protecting against solid objects >1mm and water splashes from any direction—critical for areas near entrances or during cleaning. For wet zones such as pool-adjacent corridors or exterior-covered walkways, we deploy IP65-rated luminaires with gasketed polycarbonate diffusers and sealed driver compartments. All ingress protection claims are validated per IEC 60529 and supported by factory test reports.
Beauty STC’s quality commitment is embedded in every component. Our hallway lighting features die-cast aluminum heat sinks with thermal resistance ≤4.5°C/W, ensuring junction temperatures remain below 85°C under continuous operation—directly supporting our 50,000-hour L90 lifetime (LM-80/TM-21 certified). Constant-current drivers include surge protection to 10kV and harmonic distortion <10%, while housings use UV-stabilized, fire-retardant (UL94 V-0) materials. Each fixture undergoes 100% photometric, electrical, and safety testing prior to shipment, backed by a 5-year comprehensive warranty. This disciplined approach to thermal management, optical control, and component sourcing results in solutions that outperform competitors in sustained lumen maintenance and real-world reliability.

Application Scenarios
LED hallway lighting serves distinct functional and experiential purposes across hotels, malls, and offices, requiring tailored approaches for optimal performance. In hotels, hallways are critical guest experience zones where lighting must balance safety, ambiance, and operational efficiency. Warm white temperatures (2700K-3000K) create a welcoming atmosphere while maintaining sufficient illuminance (100-150 lux) for safe navigation. Emergency lighting integration is non-negotiable, with fixtures often doubling as exit signs or path markers. Sensor-based controls like passive infrared (PIR) or microwave occupancy sensors reduce energy use during low-traffic periods without compromising guest comfort, particularly in residential floors. Uniform light distribution prevents disorienting shadows in long corridors, and dimmable systems support nighttime modes that maintain minimal illumination for safety while preserving guest sleep cycles.
Mall corridors demand high durability and visual appeal due to constant foot traffic and branding requirements. Illuminance levels should reach 200-300 lux to highlight retail displays at corridor junctions while ensuring safe movement through high-traffic zones. Fixtures must withstand vibration from crowds and feature robust IK ratings (IK08 minimum) against accidental impacts. Color rendering index (CRI >85) is essential to accurately showcase merchandise colors near storefronts. Thermal management becomes critical here—install fixtures with adequate spacing (minimum 1.5m between units) to prevent heat buildup in enclosed ceiling grids, especially in multi-story atrium corridors. Consider vandal-resistant housings in youth-centric shopping areas and integrate with mall-wide lighting management systems for synchronized dimming during off-hours.
Office building hallways prioritize productivity and regulatory compliance. Maintain 150-200 lux with cooler color temperatures (3500K-4000K) to support alertness during work hours, transitioning to warmer tones in residential-combined office towers. Strict adherence to standards like EN 12464-1 is mandatory, requiring uniformity ratios below 0.4 to eliminate visual fatigue. Emergency lighting must provide 1-hour backup with clear 1m path marking. Install motion sensors with extended timeout periods (15-20 minutes) to accommodate infrequent hallway use while meeting energy codes. For open-plan office corridors, incorporate indirect lighting coves to minimize glare on workstations near perimeter hallways.
Installation requires meticulous attention to technical details regardless of venue. Always verify voltage drop calculations for long corridor runs—use 2.5mm² cable minimum for circuits exceeding 25m to prevent lumen depreciation at fixture endpoints. Ensure drivers are mounted outside the fixture housing in plenum spaces for optimal thermal dissipation, as enclosed drivers in continuous-use corridors accelerate lumen depreciation. Align fixtures precisely using laser levels to maintain photometric consistency; even 5-degree misalignment creates visible hotspots in linear installations. For suspended ceilings, select modular troffers with snap-in mounting to simplify future lamp replacement without disrupting ceiling grids. Critically, all emergency lighting must undergo 90-second monthly functional tests and annual duration tests per IEC 60598-2-22, with wiring segregated in fire-resistant conduits. Finally, conduct glare assessments using UGR calculators—hallway fixtures should maintain Unified Glare Rating below 19 to prevent visual discomfort during extended occupancy.
