What Are the Standards and Certifications to Consider When Choosing Lighting Poles?
From urban planning to industrial facilities, and from parks and gardens to highway projects, lighting systems are an essential part of both safety and aesthetics. However, the success of these systems depends not only on the quality of the luminaires used but also on the reliability of the lighting poles. Incorrectly selected lighting poles can lead to structural failures, early corrosion, and serious safety risks. Therefore, when choosing a lighting pole, it is crucial to consider not just the design and price but also international standards and required certifications.
In this article, we will share the key international quality standards, environmental and structural certifications you should consider when selecting lighting poles, and explain why certified products are essential for safe and long-lasting projects.
