This post walks readers through some of the options for illuminated signage. Choose the product that best suit your business needs.

LED Lighting There are some marked advantages of using LEDs including: Lasts more than conventional lighting solutions. The bulbs used by professional sign design

services normally last for 7 to 10 years. More affordable than traditional lighting because it uses lower voltage, thus helping you save your

hard earned dollars over the lifespan of your signage. Though it may require more initial investment for fluorescent bulbs but much less for neon.

LEDs emit insignificant heat compared to traditional lighting systems. This means LEDs are much safer and less liable to fail owing to excessive heat build-up.

Fluorescent and Neon Lighting Though illuminated signage was manufactured using fluorescent tubing and neon lights, they had their own flaws.

When it comes to fluorescent lighting, they are perfect for backlit products and similar items but not much beneficial for signs other than simple rectangular or square shapes. These lights offer greater benefits than conventional glowing lamps because fluorescent illuminates more and emits less heat. However, fluorescent bulbs score low in terms of reduced efficiency in bad weather conditions, thus restricting their use outside your business establishment. Neon lights, on the contrary, are made by designing and bending fragile glass tubing into the specified design. Thereafter, it is lighted up via a high voltage and ionizing a filtered gas mix. This kind of product needs considerable power to operate and would require more as and when the gas starts depleting.
