HOW TO ILLUMINATE FOOD AND MEAT WITH LED LIGHTS

Is it difficult to find a balance between offering a wide variety of fresh foods and, at the same time, minimizing waste? While creating an inspiring shopping experience? Proper lighting can have a big impact on the success of your fresh food department. Accent lighting of fresh foods is the perfect recipe for a delicious presentation while extending the shelf life of your fresh products.

Benefits of presenting fresh food insight

  • The best presentation
According to research, people remember that the color of fresh products is more saturated than they really are. And when it comes to choosing a product, consumer preferences go further: they want an even more saturated color than they remember. The right lighting recipe can optimize the presentation and improve sales.
  •  Preserve quality
Bad lighting affects the quality of fresh produce. The right lighting recipe helps keep food fresh for longer, which means a longer shelf life and less waste.
  •  Create a memorable experience
LED lighting recipes for fresh foods can help make a difference in your fresh food departments by improving the presentation and quality of your most perishable products.

Case of success
The discoloration of sliced ​​meat is not a quality problem, but a cosmetic problem. Previously an important LED company, conducted an investigation in a laboratory and in a field test in the store and conducted tests with a popular meat supplier. The conclusion was that both the level of discoloration and its acceptance differ according to the type of meat, and that light (level of light and spectrum of light, in particular) was shown as key parameters in the presentation of ultra-fresh foods.
Fresh food recipes improve the presentation of food and reduce the psychological gap between the actual colors of products that naturally fade, and the colors much more saturated than people have in mind when they think of fresh products. They also help reduce food waste by emitting the correct color temperatures to decrease discoloration of sliced ​​meat.

5 THINGS YOU SHOULD CONSIDER WHEN BUYING LED STRIPS

Image
Where do you want your LED strip? Will it be the main lighting, the characteristic lighting or the ambient lighting?  Are the textures and reflectivity of the surrounding surfaces adequate? Tip: the goal is to see the lighting effect but not the real light source;  otherwise, you will see individual LEDs as "dots" of light, rather than a gentle wash effect.  If the LED strip will be visible (the ceiling LED lights, for example), then you can use one of our LED extrusion profiles to diffuse the individual LEDs and create a uniform and uniform light bar. How bright/intense do you want the emitted light to be? Different effects and levels of light can be produced by different types, numbers and colors of LEDs in a strip, and by using extrusions or profiles. (To test the chosen position, you can temporarily install an LED strip with adhesive tape and then fix the strip with your self-adhesive only when you are satisfied with the final effect). Is the surfac...

EXTRUSIONS FOR LED: WHEN SHOULD I USE ALUMINUM LED PROFILES?

Image
By placing your LED tape in an extrusion, you can create a more “finished” appearance compared to the non-installed PCB, which is ideal if the product is installed in a location where it is clearly visible. What are the benefits of LED extrusions? Aluminum extrusions with LED light strips help prevent contact damage if the LED tape is placed within easy reach.  And although they are not waterproof, extrusions can help prevent moisture.  (For added protection against water, consider installing an IP67 LED tape on extrusions.) These LED lights have a range of extrusion profiles, each with different advantages.  They include our optical lens extrusion, which actually "sheds" the light even closer by narrowing the beam of the LED ribbon and adds a luxurious finish to the LED strip lights. What is the difference between LED extrusions and LED profiles? There's no difference.  The terms "aluminum extrusion" and "aluminum profile" are interch...
