    Preserving biodiversity with LED lighting for food

    Biodiversity

    A farm-to-fork strategy that works for the climate, producers, and consumers

     

    Food systems account for nearly a third of GHG emissions and consume large amounts of natural resources. Sustainable food production, on the other hand, ensures fresh, healthy food for all while limiting its climate impact and securing fair economic returns for growers and farmers. Transitioning to this method of sustainable food production can reduce emissions and restore biodiversity by conserving land and natural resources.

    What Signify's Green Switch can do


    Signify offers lighting specifically designed for more productive and sustainable food production methods, such as greenhouse food production, vertical farming and sustainable aquaculture. Our science-based LED light recipes help boost yield, increase predictability and improve plant quality, while our LED grow lights consume up to 50% less electricity than conventional options. Our aquaculture lighting boosts yields, improves feed conversion and improves animal welfare.

    • 90% of the world’s marine fish stocks are now fully exploited, overexploited or depleted

    • Grow lights for greenhouses help increase food production by up to 20%

    • Vertical farms consume up to 90% less water and don’t require pesticides

    • Vertical farming near cities reduces food miles

    • Lighting for food availability: an appetite for change

      Lighting for food availability: an appetite for change

      The global population is growing faster than our food supply. Innovation in lighting is key to unlocking more efficient and more sustainable food production.
