Lighting a Skating Rink :
For skating rink lighting, we follow the guidelines of the French Ice Hockey Federation. There are 5 categories of rink with very specific lighting requirements. Categories A and B for International and Elite levels, categories C and D for the National level and category E for the Regional level.
Categories A and B: 1,000 Lux with a uniformity factor of ≥ 0.7
Categories C and D: 600 Lux with a uniformity factor of ≥ 0.7
Category E: 400 Lux with a uniformity factor of ≥ 0.7
These standards not only provide an optimal lighting result, they also generate power savings and significantly reduce the maintenance of your lighting installation.

Skating rinks are often equipped with very powerful floodlights in order to cover the large surface area. But power consumption is therefore high. We recommend these powerful LED floodlights
