A vital stage in the whisky-making process is the germination of barley, which occurs in kilns operating at temperatures up to 80°C with high humidity. While the industry is pushing for energy-efficient LED lighting, most standard LED fittings fail prematurely in these extreme conditions—leading to increased maintenance, downtime, and replacement costs.

The Solution

Ecolighting Systems now offers a robust LED lighting solution specifically engineered to withstand these harsh kiln environments. The fittings feature:

• High-temperature resistance (up to 80°C)

• Ingress Protection rating of IP66, ensuring full protection against dust and powerful water jets

• Operational lifespan of 4–5 years, far exceeding conventional LED options in such conditions

The Benefits

• Significant reduction in maintenance and replacement costs

• Improved energy efficiency compared to traditional lighting

• Reliable performance even in high heat and humidity

• Clear return on investment (ROI) for producers focused on long-term operational efficiency

This breakthrough offers whisky producers a reliable and energy-efficient lighting solution for one of the most demanding production environments in the industry.
