Interior Design and Plant Lighting
Plants need light - Optimize with right lighting!
Light is the lifeblood of your plants, as crucial as food for us humans. To create a harmonious and thriving indoor environment, it's essential to choose the right lighting. Each plant is unique and requires its specific light to flourish, just as each room needs its special atmosphere. At Plantlight, we understand this dynamic and offer solutions that enhance both your plants and your space.
In most office and home environments, there is a lack of light that limits the growth and health of plants. While a light level of 500 lux may feel comfortable for us, it is barely sufficient for plants to maintain their appearance. By increasing the light level to 800 lux, you open up for a greater variety of plants, and at 1000 lux, almost all types of plants can thrive. Our innovative lighting solutions, from stylish plant walls to unique plant paintings, are designed to provide your plants with the best conditions.
To ensure that your plants receive just the right amount of light, we recommend using our precision-manufactured lux meter.
It's an indispensable tool for creating a perfectly balanced indoor environment. The correct light level not only contributes to the well-being of the plants but also helps reduce maintenance costs and improve the aesthetics of the room.

Optimize your plant lighting with LED – A guide
Enhance Your Plants with the right LED Lighting
Plantlight.se,
here, we specialize in providing the most efficient LED lighting solutions for your plants. To achieve a perfect indoor environment, it's important to understand how to select and tailor LED lighting to the specific needs of your plants..
-
Begin by evaluating how much natural light your space already receives. Ask yourself: How much LED lighting is needed to supplement this and promote plant growth?
- Customize according to plant types and lighting goals: Each species of plant has unique light requirements. Consider which plants you have and what you want to achieve with your lighting – increased growth, aesthetic enhancement, or creating a specific atmosphere.
- Distance and beam angle: The distance between your plants and the LED light source is crucial. Use light sources with the right beam angle to maximize efficiency, especially if the plants are positioned away from the light.
- Benefits of LED: LED lighting is the obvious choice due to its energy efficiency, long lifespan, and design flexibility. Choose from a wide range of LED options to meet your specific requirements for brightness and color temperature.
-
Intelligent Lighting Control: Modern LED systems offer advanced control capabilities. Consider smart solutions such as timers, dimmers, or app-based controls to customize the lighting experience according to your needs.
