When it comes to commercial lighting, finding an efficient set-up that provides warm, functional illumination is always a top priority. When working with a lighting contractor or light bulb supplier, they may recommend LED flat panels or LED troffers depending on the layout and needs of your property. Here's a guide to both options, so you know what to install. 

Understanding Your Commercial Lighting Options

LED Troffer

An LED troffer is generally square or rectangular in shape and is permanently installed in a recessed ceiling grid. Unlike a flat panel, the light source of an integrated LED Troffer is normally centered taking advantage of the troffer's designed photometrics to obtain maximum light output. Any fluorescent troffer can be retrofitted to use LED tubes, some tubes utilize the troffer's electronic ballast while others can be direct-wired. With the transition to LEDs, troffers are now more energy-efficient without sacrificing brightness. Better still, with LEDs, bulbs have a longer lifespan, reducing overall maintenance and expenses. 

LED Flat Panel

LED flat panel lights appear flush with the ceiling and can be installed in both indoor ceilings and some outdoor applications that are conducive to recessed lighting. Flat panels are ideal for shallow ceilings as they are only two to three centimeters thick and provide a modern and sleek look. When you're looking for an affordable option with flexibility that can range from decorative lighting to functional overhead lights in an office, gym, warehouse, or hospital setting, this is the perfect option.
