Eco Friendly Temporary Lighting Solutions
Using eco-friendly lighting is generally one of the simplest ways to go green. There are a few different types of lighting which run more efficiently than others such as LED.
Lighting is essential for the health and safety of everyone in the workplace. HSS offers a large selection of portable lighting solutions to ensure that your chosen location is always fully illuminated. Choose from a single unit or a combination of different lighting towers, many equipped with a built-in generator to produce clear, brilliant light.
Our interactive lighting guide below can help you see which lighting is best for you:
1. What area do you need to light?
The size of the area to be lit and the conditions of the ground all need to be considered – large open areas, for example, would require different lights to a large congested area.
2. What type of work/activity will be going on?
Differing activities require varied levels of lighting – more detailed work requires brighter lighting than the movement.
3. Do you have a power source?
Some lights come with their own power supply. For those that don’t, temporary power supplies can also be provided by HSS.
4. Are noise levels an issue?
Sites in built-up residential areas may need to keep to minimum noise levels outside daytime hours.
5. Is the area well ventilated?
Generators should only be used in well ventilated areas as they present a health risk. If the area is not ventilated then the generator should be positioned away from the area and cables run to power the lights, alternatively battery lights should be considered.
6. Does shadowing need to be considered?
For intricate work where shadows would cause a nuisance, lights that emit diffused light will minimise the shadowing caused.

Lighting may not be the top of the priority list when it comes to planning an event, however it is an important aspect of any event and can have a massive impact on the outcome. Work lights can be used to light up small spaces where detail is required but for larger scale events you will need large scale lighting.
Lighting technology has come a long way; there are many advancements which have led to safer, more effective lighting solutions. One of these is LED lighting. There are many benefits to LED lighting, yet in the past LED has only been available at a much higher premium when compared to alternative lighting options such as halogen lighting. Now, though the price of LED continues to increase, their benefits remain as intriguing as ever. Despite their slightly higher price tag, LED lights are actually more cost-effective than their counterparts as they last longer and are more energy efficient. LED light hire also means that you don’t have to worry about bulb replacement; therefore, avoiding any hidden costs.
