Project Location: Dubai, UAE
Application: Indoor Seafood Market
Product Model: XJ-HBL Series
Brand: SEEKINGLED
This project was carried out in a seafood market in Dubai, a space where lighting directly affects how products are perceived and how people move through the area. From the first discussion, the requirement was clear: the floor needed high lux levels. Not accent lighting, not atmosphere-driven design, but strong and usable illumination across the entire selling area.
That set the tone for how we approached the project.
Seafood markets are different from standard retail. Floors are often wet, surfaces reflect light unpredictably, and customers tend to look down more than up. Visibility of product condition matters, and shadows between counters slow people down.
We assumed early on that uneven lighting would become a problem quickly, so uniformity had to be treated as seriously as brightness.
We worked with the XJ-HBL series as the base fixture. Several Dialux calculations were done during the planning stage. The reason there were multiple rounds was simple: small changes in mounting height and spacing had a noticeable impact on floor lux in this space.
After each calculation, we compared the results against how the market actually operates during busy hours. We adjusted layouts rather than pushing higher power blindly. The focus stayed on reaching the required lux on the floor while keeping distribution even between stalls and walkways.
Once the calculated values matched the customer’s expectations, the layout was fixed. No decorative elements were added. The fixtures were there to work, not to be noticed.
During installation, we followed the planned positions closely. There were no last-minute changes on site, which usually indicates that the preparation work was done properly.
After the system was switched on, the feedback from the end customer came quickly. They focused on how easy it was to see products and move through the space. People spent less time adjusting their position to avoid shadows or dark spots.
For this LED High Bay Lighting for Seafood Market project, the result came from repetition rather than creativity. Running the calculations more than once felt necessary at the time, and in hindsight, it avoided problems later.
