Lit and safe thanks to Würth France

The importance of lighting on site

More than 30% of falls from height or level accidents on a construction site are due to poor lighting. This figure highlights the importance of properly lighting a construction site: without good lighting, visual fatigue sets in and considerably increases the risk of errors and accidents. Construction site lighting is undoubtedly an essential element of safety.

In order to work in optimal conditions on a poorly lit construction site, it is essential to choose your lamps carefully.

How to choose your construction site lighting?

Lighting standards, measured in lumen and lux, must be met to ensure safe and productive working conditions. The choice of construction site lighting is essentially guided and oriented by its use, the type of construction site and the frequency of use. To determine various lighting needs, it is important to ask yourself some basic questions up front:

• The type of lighting required: complete or additional
• The need for mobility: battery or wired
• The type of lighting positioning: high or on the ground
• The desired power

To refine certain preferences regarding the type of light, it is important to have technical bases such as:

• The unit of measurement for light is LUX (lx), which characterizes the light intensity received per unit area.
• LUMENS (lm) which characterize the quantity of light emitted by a light source, thus measuring the total luminous flux. In other words, the higher the number of lumens, the brighter the lamp.

Equip yourself with lighting

The Würth lighting range offers wide flexibility to meet different needs depending on the construction site. To optimize the lighting installation, Würth markets additional products such as tripods or rails.
