Offshore and coastal applications are among some of the most challenging industrial
environments on earth due to the toll that corrosive atmospheres can have on equipment,
including lighting. Heavy salt concentrations can literally eat away metal structures reducing
their structural integrity and creating a safety risk.
At industrial work sites it is common for lighting products to utilize metals such as
aluminum in their fixture housings and hardware due to its structural robustness and ability to
dissipate heat in order to protect internal electronic components. However, in environments with
heavy salt concentrations, several safety issues can arise when light fixture performance and
mechanical integrity is compromised.
