Amerlux goes beyond ROI; Provides retailers with prescriptive approach to customized lighting programs that create stronger connection with shoppers

"Effective lighting does more than just illuminate up a store," says Mr. Plageman. "Well designed fixtures clearly improve the overall aesthetics of retail interiors and exteriors, however, visual cues can play a major role influencing consumer purchasing habits. Thoughtful lighting provides brick and mortar stores with a distinct advantage over the rapidly growing competition, including open-air markets and online websites, while also addressing the rapidly changing buying habits of millenials.

"Grocers are rethinking how they can light the aisle and influence sales between the shelves," says Mr. Plageman. "Many are exploring architectural grade lighting that generates greater excitement and visual interest by illuminating high-margin areas such as fresh and prepared foods," says Mr. Plageman. "Utilizing intelligent lighting design impacts consumer perception, makes produce pop off shelves, and retains customers in the space to buy more. 

"We updated our Lighting Toolbox with data mining sensors, color tuning capabilities, energy efficient controls, and a small amount of UV/Violet light that can be added to fixtures to help live products continue to grow, as well as add life while on the shelf," explains Mr. Plageman. "Smart sensors embedded in fixtures yield key insights about shopper behavior and leverage the physical footprint to determine best placement for signage, displays and entire departments. In addition to data collection, integrated sensors activate fixtures with motion and photocell detection, and implement dimming control for incremental efficiency, safety and security."

"Imagine growing herbs, vegetables and fruit in a store using lighting fixtures without natural daylight," says Mr. Plageman. "We can customize fixtures that appeal to consumers' senses with visual and olfactory cues.

"Utilizing vast capabilities, retail-oriented lighting is elevated from homogenous functionality to a more prescriptive nature," says Mr. Plageman. "We can custom tailor each lighting program based on the store's objectives, department by department, aisle by aisle, with an individualized methodology. Not just for driving sales, but building deeper connections to customers. In short, we offer a human centric approach to lighting."
