Not only does additional lighting increase the ease of use of the furniture, it also complements the interior design. We like Emuca LED Strips for exceptional quality and ease of installation. Thanks to their size and versatility, they are ideal for highlighting shapes and forms and can be used as auxiliary lighting. They can be joined together to create longer lights for greater aesthetic value.

Experienced furniture makers know that the right lighting is the best recommendation for their work. After all, not all customers notice the well-functioning flexible, quiet and smooth closing of drawers or lift systems that guarantee unique comfort - for many, this is simple necessity "must have". Meanwhile, furniture lighting is like their perfect make-up, creating an aesthetic that will leave you unnoticed and underestimated by customers and visitors (who might not be shy to ask who made such stunning furniture).

Cabinet shelves, iliuminated after opening doors, even in the dark searching for items perfectly visible contents of the drawers or every woman's dream wardrobe are simply impossible without additional furniture lighting solutions. As for the dimly lit kitchen countertop, an experienced and professional cabinetmaker will do his best to communicate with clients so that his products do not raise any questions about what could have been done better. After all, perfectly lighted furniture is also a great emotional experience - every time you look at a smartly accented living room shelf, where you'll find pride-worthy items.

Advantages of LED strips offered by Spanish manufacturer Emuca:

• Quality and durability;
• Easy and quick installation.

Lighting of the furniture needs to last, which is why the quality and durability of LED strips is crucial. After all, no customer would want to worry about faulty furniture lighting, and for a furniture manufacturer, it would be unnecessary and damaging to a professional reputation.

Thanks to its size and versatility the LED lighting strips are ideal for highlighting shapes and they can be used as an auxiliary light. They have the possibility of being joined up in order to obtain longer lights with a high aesthetic appeal. They are also ideal for installation in hidden areas, achieving a diffused light. Emuca LED strips can be cut and are ready for extremely fast installation.

How to choose LED strips for furniture lighting? The answer to this question is classic - evaluate individual needs. Depending on the end use of the LED strips, the following criteria may be relevant:

• Light intensity;
• Power;
• Color temperature;
• Color rendering index;
• Protection against external factors.

The unit of measurement for luminous intensity is the lumen. The light intensity of Emuca LED strips is expressed in lumens per meter. The higher the number of lumens, the more intense the light.

Two technical parameters are important for the power of the LED strip: operating voltage (measured in volts, denoted by V) and current (measured in amps, denoted by A). The higher the current selected, the lower the voltage drop. However, in the case of furniture lighting, the most popular bands with a voltage of 12V. So all you have to do is choose the watt-meter power of the LED bar. The more watts, the more powerful the illumination will be. The power of LED strips is important in choosing the right power source. Usually, the LED light bandwidth is calculated and a 30% margin is added. For example, For a 1 meter 4.8W LED light bar, the power supply is calculated as: 4.8 W (strip power) x 1 meter (strip length) x 1.3 (30% spare) = 6.242 W. So 30 W of power for you even several strips of this length will be sure to join even the same.

The color temperature will determine the color of the lighting. LED strips are divided into 3 primary colors - warm white, cold white, and neutral. All of these colors depend on the color temperature expressed in Kelvin. The warm white diode has 2700-3500 K, the neutral 4000-5000 K, and the cold white 6000-7500 K. The most popular color for furniture illumination is neutral since it is more important to notice the furniture itself without focusing on the lighting alone. Cold white can be used for ultra-modern design and warm white for a classic design. A professional furniture manufacturer is always keen to explain to the customer all possible solutions and without hesitation to hear the individual wishes of the customer, which may differ from the most massive lighting solutions.

Lighting can affect people's senses - it is not for nothing that we meet good weather in a better mood than autumn rain. Proper artificial lighting makes the house cozier. One lighting is suitable for work, another for relaxation. For example, for a shared kitchen and living space, it is worth choosing different solutions than for a small separate kitchen. The cold white color of the kitchen can interfere with a pleasant relaxation on the sofa - in the case of a common kitchen and the living room area, it is worth choosing neural, rather than cold, lighting. Lighting with a decorative function should be warm white - this type of introduction is more pleasing to the eye. Meanwhile, the cold color is closest to the sun, making it perfect for work - for example, cooking. The warm color is perfect for relaxing with a cup of coffee or tea in hand.

The color rendering index significantly affects the quality of lighting. It can be perceived as the result of comparing LED strip lighting with natural lighting. The color rendering index ranges from 0 to 100, the highest value being for standard sunlight. A higher color rendering index means that the color of the objects seen in the LED bar light will be extremely close to natural. It is important to see colors realistically in the wardrobe and in cooking - with a lighting index of more than 70 satisfying even the most demanding individual customers. We recommend that companies that make furniture for shops, restaurants or hotels apply for individual lighting solutions.

Light source protection against external influences is specified by the IP standard class. For furniture that will be used in non-humid conditions, the lowest LED band of the IP20 standard is sufficient. We already have such LED strips in stock - you can find them at www.joldija.lt If you need to use furniture in a humid environment, we recommend that you contact us  +370 37 490 180 - we will offer you the best solution.

LED strips are usually mounted in profiles. In this case, a cozy diffused light effect is achieved. At Joldija warehouse we have the most popular choices of lighting profiles among our customers.

It is important to consider lighting already at the furniture design stage. The use of different profiles for LED strips can create a different lighting effect - you can choose a light or dark profile. The offered profiles of different shapes will allow you to adapt to the needs of a specific customer. Choose recessed, flat or angled LED strip profiles. Additional possibilities are provided by the fact that the profiles for mounting LED strips can be cut to the required length. The accessories offered for completing the profiles - end caps - can be with or without a hole, when choosing pay attention to the type of profile - a cover of the same type adapted to its shape will allow the installation of LED strip lighting aesthetically and with minimal effort.

You do not need to be an electrician to be able to install aesthetically pleasing and functional furniture lighting using LED strips and their profiles. The profiles for LED strips are made of aluminum, and the covers and their ends are made of plastic. Depending on the light transmission of the cover, different types of LED strip lighting will be obtained. Profiles for LED strips additionally protect the LED strips from environmental influences. Aluminum profiles for LED strips can be used for external and internal lighting of furniture. Lighting the bottom of the kitchen cabinets above the countertop will create additional lighting suitable for work. Recessed or angled profiles for LED strips are most commonly used for this purpose. By using the LED strips in the profiles for shelves or drawers inside the furniture, you will create additional lighting that is important for finding items. The LED strips built into the profiles can be used not only in furniture, but also in stairs, walls, ceilings and mirrors. LED strip lighting installed in the profiles will decorate and enrich any interior. Recessed LED profiles are suitable for installation in plaster ceilings or walls. Level line lighting, created with the help of LED strips mounted in profiles, is extremely common in modern interiors.
