What are Food Grade LED Lights?

Food processing light fixtures are specifically designed and certified for use in areas of commercial facilities where food is processed and handled. They are commonly also called food-grade LED lights.

LED food processing lights are made with non-toxic materials. They’re designed to be easy to clean as well as prevent the accumulation of dirt and debris on the surface of the light fixture. Our food-safe LED fixtures have tempered glass lenses. Our tubular-style linear NSF fixtures have frosted polycarbonate lens covers. You should not have to worry about broken glass issues.

Some of our fixtures have a pendant mount option. Other options include an eye hook and suspended wire mount. More often than not, food factory lighting is either pendant or eye hook mounted because it makes it easier to wash down.

Some of the fixtures we sell can operate in temperatures up to 131F.

Food-safe LED light fixtures tested and certified by the non-profit NSF Organization. This organization’s primary goal is food safety. NSF (National Sanitation Foundation ) is a standard on its own, it is different and separate from the fixtures UL/ETL listing and DLC listing.

Food Processing Lighting That’s Safe for Food Safety

When it comes to food safety, the best option is lights that have NSF certification. There are different types of food-safe lights available. These include round-style hanging fixtures to linear strip NSF fixtures.

What are the Benefits of Using LED Food Safe Lights?

  • efficient, bright, and reliable lighting
  • reduced lighting bills, savings of 50% or greater
  • reduced maintenance, as there are no bulbs and ballasts to replace
  • safe and bright working environment as LED light lumens depreciate very slowly as compared to metal halide and fluorescent light sources.

What is NSF Rating?

NSF rating is a certification that certifies a light passes the NSF Organization’s test. This test examines a fixture’s ability to work in a food-sanitary environment.

NSF Certification Zones Our Fixtures Cover

Lighting never comes in contact with the food. Our lights are tested for both splash zones and non-food zones. The third zone, the food zone, does not apply to lighting as lighting is never in direct contact with food.

You need to use NSF-rated lights in commercial food processing environments. The health departments of many municipalities and states have strict guidelines. These guidelines detail when and where you should install these fixtures.

The lights on this page have the proper NSF certifications for food and beverage preparation. Call us and we can provide all the documentation you need.

Can you Wash Down Food Grade Light Fixtures?

Yes, you can. Food-grade lighting is designed to be able to withstand constant wash down to keep food-safe areas clean. Our lights are corrosion-resistant. Many of these lights are IP69K rated, designed for high pressure hot water washdowns.

Installation Instructions for our Food Manufacturing Lights

The actual fixtures themselves are easy to install. You should use a qualified electrician. They should be familiar with NSF-rated fixtures. They should also know the rules for connecting lights to junction boxes.

Can I Use a UFO or Vapor Tight Fixture Instead of a Food Safe Light?

No. Unless, of course, they are NSF certified. You should not confuse IP waterproof ratings with NSF certifications. NSF fixtures are indeed IP-rated for wet environments. It is not true that any IP-rated fixture is also NSF-rated.
