Swine Barn Lighting
Effective poultry lighting is a strategic investment in swine production—one that improves pigs' welfare, boosts productivity, and enhances operational efficiency. Drawing on research and industry best practices, Ceramiclite’s LED barn lighting solution is crafted to meet the unique lighting needs of pig facilities at every stage.
Core Benefits
1. Enhanced Animal Performance & Reproduction
Strategic photoperiods and optimized light intensity significantly improve breeding efficiency, feed conversion, and overall performance, while also encouraging natural behaviors like suckling and exploration.
2. Energy Savings & Lower Maintenance
Upgrading to LED lighting yields substantial energy savings (up to 85% compared to incandescent), prolonged fixture lifespan, and reduced upkeep—which directly benefits your bottom line.
3. Behavioural and Welfare Improvements
Lighting that mimics swine visual and biological needs—using correct spectrum, uniform distribution, and flicker-free delivery—can reduce stress, improve social behavior, and mitigate aggression.
Recommended Light Levels (Lux) & Photoperiods
Based on OMAFRA and industry guidelines:
1. Breeding & Gestation: 100–150 lux for 14–16 hours/day (supports estrus cycles)
2. Farrowing & Nursery: 50–150 lux for 8–12 hours/day with ≤5 lux overnight (stimulates suckling and rest)
3. Finishing Areas: ~50 lux for 8–12 hours/day (enhances growth and feed intake).
Solution for Healthy Growth and Performance
Design & Installation Considerations
1. Robust and IP-rated Fixtures
Use high-quality LED fixtures (NEMA 4X / IP66) that resist high-pressure washing, water vapor, and corrosive barn gases.
2. High Efficacy & CRI (≥85)
Maximize luminous efficiency (lm/W) and ensure light is perceived naturally with a high Color Rendering Index.
3. Uniform Light Distribution & No Flicker
Avoid shadows and flicker, which can cause stress or pose visual hazards. Even illumination promotes calmer behavior and safer environments.
4. Smart Lighting Controls
Integrate timers or dimming controls to tailor photoperiods across production phases—boosting performance while optimizing energy use.

T16 LED barn light
The T16 tri-proof LED barn light is engineered for modern livestock farms and food-processing plants that demand frequent washdown and chemical resistance. Its sealed IP66/IP69K enclosure and IK08 polycarbonate housing resist ammonia and hydrogen sulfide commonly found in swine and poultry barns. The ceramic LED lighting technology delivers up to 150 lm/W of flicker-free, 360° wide beam angle illumination to cut energy use and maintenance versus conventional LED light fixtures. Designed for poultry and livestock barn LED lighting's best practices, the T16 LED agricultural lights support animal-centric light programs—optional 0–10 V dimming enables tailored photoperiods and smooth intensity control. Qui, linkable installation simplifies retrofits across farrowing, nursery, finishing, and dairy areas, as well as food processing rooms, car washes, and mushroom growing farms with high humidity, dust and vapor. Backed by an 8-year warranty with CE, RoHS, UL, ETL, CB, CCC certifications, the T16 is a robust LED barn lighting solution that delivers reliable performance and lower total cost of ownership.
T21 LED barn light
The T21 Series LED barn lights are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of livestock farms, food processing plants and other facilities requiring frequent high-pressure cleaning. Built with ceramic LED technology, durable PC housing, and a fully waterproof structure, these LED pole barn lights deliver exceptional resistance against hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, and other corrosive gases—offering more than 4x the durability of conventional LED fixtures. Their robust design ensures reliable performance in high-temperature and high-humidity environments, such as swine barns, poultry houses, and mushroom cultivation rooms, where dust, steam, and vapors are prevalent. In addition to barnyard lighting, the T21 can also function as a tri-proof LED lights for car washes, industrial sites, and other demanding environments. This combination of longevity, energy efficiency, and corrosion resistance reduces maintenance costs while ensuring consistent, high-quality illumination.
