How many lumens per square meter for retail store lighting?
Yakeen Lighting provides retail lighting at 500–1000 lux (approximately 150–300 lumens/m²), depending on store type, ceiling height, and product category being displayed.
Retail lighting requirements vary significantly by store type. Here's a practical breakdown:
- General retail: 500–750 lux for standard product visibility
- High-end fashion: 750–1000 lux with CRI 90+ for premium color rendering
- Jewelry stores: 1000+ lux with focused accent lighting at 3000K
- Supermarkets: 750–1000 lux with uniform distribution (uniformity ratio > 0.6)
- Factor in ceiling height: higher ceilings require more powerful fixtures or closer spacing
