How AV Companies Can Help Maximize Productivity in Your Office
Commercial Lighting Solutions Can Impact Employee Mood and Performance
Office environments are proven to impact employee performance and health. Ergonomic seating, for instance, is essential for employee comfort, but lighting is also a key component in creating a workplace conducive to productivity. For example, dim or artificial lighting can lead to eye strain, headaches, drowsiness, or lack of focus. If your employees are not feeling well, they will not perform well.
It might be time to rely on an AV company like Campo Better Living to provide an updated lighting design that focuses more on employee well-being. Our commercial lighting solutions can help your employees feel more welcome and focused at the office, improving their moods and maximizing performance.

Using Natural Light
Natural light is one of the easiest ways to boost employee energy. Sunshine gives our bodies a natural boost and is also an environmentally friendly choice. If your office has large windows, don't be afraid to let the light shine.
Our AV company can assist you with installing daylight sensors throughout your office. Sensors pair well with artificial lighting to help maximize efficiency throughout the day, using as much natural light as possible. If the sun is shining, the sensor will dim interior lights; however, if the sun is not providing adequate levels of light for work, the sensor will activate the artificial lighting in the office to glow brighter.
If the sun's glare causes concern for workers throughout the day, consider automated shading that can provide glare protection yet allow natural light to shine through. Shading options such as these can also provide thermal protection to stop the sun from overheating the office.
Lighting Color
Tunable lighting is another way lighting design can improve workers' moods, health, and productivity. Campo Better Living can help you design a lighting plan incorporating artificial light color tuning to boost employee energy and productivity throughout the day.
Studies have shown that cool color tones (such as whites and blues) can improve focus and alertness and reduce employee fatigue. However, areas like break rooms or meeting rooms may benefit from warmer-toned colors (such as oranges and yellows) because they promote comfort and relaxation.
Benefits of LED
If your office still uses fluorescent lighting fixtures, it may be time to upgrade to more energy-efficient LED options. Pairing LED light bulbs with a natural lighting plan can significantly reduce your office energy bills. Not only are LED bulbs more energy efficient, but they also last much longer than fluorescent bulbs. Maximize your energy savings by installing occupancy sensors to turn off the lights when employees have left a room.
