Display lighting can make or break any retail business. It is fundamentally important to attract the eye of the customer to the product, or it will remain unsold. 

Attracting the eye is achieved through increased illumination, colour changes, moving images and animating the object. This is easier to achieve if the ambient light level is lower, as the eye is naturally drawn to brighter, moving objects. 

During design, it is important to consider low energy / long life lamps, as display lighting is usually on for the majority of the day / evening. 

Some applications require a light source without heat. This can be achieved with fibre optic systems, where the heat source is remote from the light emitters. 

Fibre optic lighting systems are useful for a variety of applications, including high security museum displays, fresh food counters, underwater illumination and areas where it would normally be difficult to change lamps. They have the added advantage of being able to provide multiple light emitters, from just one source. Rotating colour wheels can be introduced for added interest. 

Side emitting fibre optic is now available which can provide a linear light effect over 30 metres. This can be useful for highlighting stair nosings, banisters, low level escape route lighting, and decorative effects. It is also suitable for use under water.
