Go Green with an LED Sign

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

If your business prides itself on being "environmentally friendly" or if you are looking for ways for your business to become more "green," then think about investing in LED signs. Light Emitting Diodes (LED) uses a portion of the energy that a "traditional" or even Compact Florescent Light (CFL) light uses. The lights used in LED signs also have a longer useful life than "traditionally lit" signs do because they produce less heat which extends their life span. Because LED signs do not put off a lot of heat, they are also a safe choice to use in your business. Many Marquee style signs are lit up with fluorescent lights which contain mercury. Mercury is a toxic substance and requires special disposal. Because fluorescent lighting is gaining popularity it is also becoming an environmental hazard because the lights are not being disposed of properly. Fluorescent lights should always be recycled and the mercury should also be recycled. In order to avoid the danger and hassle of using fluorescent lights in your signs, LED lighted signs are a better alternative for the environment because they do not contain mercury.

A great way to attract attention to your business is with an LED sign. Have you ever driven by a business numerous times and never realized it was there because they didn’t have a good visible sign? LED signs are able to catch the attention of passersby in many different ways. There are many different styles and sizes to choose from to suite your business needs. They can be made to blink, flash or even scroll through print or pictures. They can display your store hours or display "open" or "closed." The messages can be changed quickly unlike the Marquee style signs in which it takes hours to change the letters out for a new message. By investing in a high-quality, highly visible LED sign people will be able to see you. You will be able to advertise specials to draw people into the store. You can also put the time and date on your sign which people will remember, so they will check your sign every time they drive by. LED signs can also be used at multiple locations and be controlled at one central "hub." If you have more than one business, you can have an LED sign at each place with details displayed of your other convenient locations. LED signs are innovation at its best and will allow your business to reach a broader audience than it otherwise would have.
