  • Abstract
    LED lighting offers significant advantages for pulp and paper facilities, delivering improved performance and reliability with significantly lower total cost of ownership compared to conventional lighting. This paper will examine the many benefits of LED lighting including: the improved quality of light and color rendering, the reduction in UV emissions that eliminates product degradation and insect infestation, the dramatic reduction in maintenance demand and cost, as well as incentive programs that ensure rapid payback/return on investment, all while improving facility safety and enhancing sustainability.
