When we conducted a major survey at Spectrasol with the Perfect Crowd agency a few months ago, we wanted clear evidence of how much light affects our lives. The results we compiled now describe it in the language of undeniable numbers: for example, a full 91% of Czechs already fully understand that light is a cornerstone of a healthy lifestyle. Yet we still risk our health every day indoors – 84% of us demonstrably suffer under ordinary artificial lighting, with tired eyes (57%) and an overall drop in energy (47%) being the most common complaints. People who have already switched to healthy full-spectrum light, however, report an immediate improvement: 86% have more rested eyes, 79% a better mood, and 75% finally sleep well. It is no surprise that 63% of employees already expect healthy lighting as a standard in their workplace.
We have neatly summarized the most important data and arguments for better light hygiene or for making the case to your organization’s management in our “cheat sheet,” so you can always have them at hand – PDF. Whether you are purchasing lighting for your offices, talking to HR, or preparing a new building, the right artificial light is not a luxury, but a little piece of sunlight that we deserve and need to have close to us every day. Our eyes, brains, and the rest of our bodies will thank us.
