Lighting for outdoors, especially sports lighting, must create sufficient illumination for players to perform, without creating visible glare which can dazzle and distract. Specifically, designed beam angles can create a uniform lighting output, that benefits players and minimises energy wastage.
Effective outdoor solutions also minimise light pollution, which can be disruptive to nearby homes, and to wildlife. Outdoor lighting also needs to be able to withstand a range of weather conditions, so IP-rated luminaires are ideal for outdoor sports environments.
