Two ways we can help
Lighting solutions in Kenya for every type of space.
Some customers already know what they need: a solar floodlight for a gate, a street light for an access road or garden lights for a pathway. Those products can be viewed and purchased through our online shop.
Other projects need a more considered answer. A supermarket aisle, showroom, warehouse or production area cannot be designed from wattage alone. The dimensions, mounting height, working task, finishes, operating hours and required light level all influence the fitting, optics, spacing and controls.
This page helps both customers start in the right place.
Solar lighting solutions
Outdoor lighting without extending grid cables or adding monthly electricity use.
Solar lights combine a photovoltaic panel, battery, LED fitting and controller. Their performance depends on more than the wattage printed on a box: panel exposure, battery capacity, lighting mode, operating hours, mounting position and the quality of the components all matter.
Solar street lights
Integrated or separated-panel options for roads, estates, institutions, farms, parking areas and public spaces. Pole height, spacing and the intended lighting period should guide selection.

Choosing solar lights
Start with the area and the result you need.
- Identify the area to be illuminated and the reason for lighting it
- Check mounting height, available fixing points and obstacles
- Confirm that the solar panel will receive adequate direct sunlight
- Decide whether full brightness is needed all night or only when motion is detected
- Consider weather exposure, ingress protection and installation access
- Compare realistic battery autonomy rather than relying on nominal wattage alone

Lighting that supports how customers see, move and buy.
Retail lighting has more than one job. It must provide comfortable general illumination, make products easy to see, guide movement through the store and give selected displays enough emphasis. Poor spacing can create dark patches; unsuitable optics can produce glare; and weak colour quality can make merchandise appear flat or inaccurate.
For supermarkets, shops and showrooms, Plasma Solar develops a lighting solution around the floor plan, ceiling arrangement, shelf layout, product zones and operating hours. We can combine general ambient lighting with track-mounted accent lights and other task-appropriate fittings instead of forcing one type of luminaire to do everything.
The proposal can compare fixture quantities, installed load and expected lighting performance so the client understands why each fitting is being recommended.
Commercial and industrial lighting
Clear, efficient lighting for godowns, factories and large working spaces.
Large spaces often appear simple until the installation is evaluated properly. High mounting points, long aisles, dusty conditions, heat, moisture, machinery, racking and long operating hours all affect the choice of fitting. A bright sample lamp at eye level does not show how it will perform across the floor of a working facility.
Tubular tri-proof lighting
Durable linear lighting suited to spaces where dust, moisture and regular cleaning make exposed conventional fittings a poor choice. Useful for godowns, parking areas, workshops and selected processing environments where the specification matches site conditions.
High-bay and warehouse lighting
Optics and output selected for higher ceilings, working-plane targets, aisle geometry and racking. Layout matters as much as the headline lumen figure.
Retail and track lighting
Flexible ambient and accent lighting for supermarkets, showrooms and branded retail areas, with attention to glare, beam control, colour temperature and colour rendering.
Exterior commercial lighting
Flood, façade, parking and perimeter lighting selected for coverage, weather exposure, mounting position and the effect on neighbours, drivers and security cameras.
Lighting upgrades
Replacement of inefficient or poorly distributed lighting after reviewing existing fittings, measured conditions, electrical infrastructure and operational constraints.
Controls and operating strategy
Zoning, occupancy sensing and time control can reduce unnecessary operating hours while maintaining light where staff and customers need it.
Design inputs
What determines the right commercial lighting solution?
| Design input | Why it matters | What we establish |
|---|---|---|
| Use of the space | A warehouse aisle, checkout, shelf display and production bench need different lighting conditions. | The tasks being performed and the appropriate target at the working plane. |
| Dimensions and layout | Length, width, height, racking and obstructions affect spacing and uniformity. | A plan or survey showing the usable mounting locations and areas that need special treatment. |
| Mounting height | The same fitting produces a different result when installed higher or lower. | Ceiling height, suspension options, beam angle and required output. |
| Surface conditions | Dark walls, high shelving and machinery reflect less light than pale, open interiors. | Relevant finishes and obstructions used in the lighting calculation. |
| Colour and glare | Retail merchandise, detailed work and customer comfort depend on more than brightness. | Suitable colour temperature, colour-rendering performance and glare control. |
| Environment | Dust, moisture, heat, impact risk and cleaning regimes affect fitting life and safety. | The enclosure, construction and protection level appropriate to the location. |
| Operating hours | Long daily use makes efficiency, driver quality and maintenance access commercially important. | Expected energy consumption, controls and a practical maintenance approach. |
Our process
From an uncertain brief to a defensible lighting proposal.
Understand the space
We establish the dimensions, use, operating hours, current problems and the areas where visual performance matters most.
Survey and design
We review mounting points, electrical arrangements and environmental conditions, then develop a suitable fitting and layout concept.
Present the solution
The proposal explains fitting types, quantities, layout assumptions, installed power and the intended lighting result.
Supply and installation
We coordinate delivery, installation, testing and handover, with support for maintenance and future replacements.
For existing facilities
We can begin with what is not working today.
You may have dark aisles, harsh glare, frequent lamp failures, fittings that collect dust, uneven illumination or an electricity bill that no longer reflects the useful light delivered. An assessment can document the current installation and identify whether the answer is a new layout, different optics, more suitable fittings, improved controls or a combination of these measures.
For new developments
Resolve lighting before installation routes are fixed.
Early coordination makes it easier to align the lighting layout with ceilings, shelving, signage, cable routes and controls. This reduces improvisation on site and gives the electrical contractor a clearer basis for installation and costing.
Common questions
Lighting questions, answered clearly.
Which solar light is suitable for my compound?
Start with the size of the area, mounting height, hours of lighting required, available sunlight and whether you need continuous or motion-activated output. Photographs and basic dimensions help us recommend a more suitable floodlight than choosing from wattage alone.
Can I buy solar lights directly online?
Yes. Plasma Solar’s online shop lists solar flood lights, street lights and garden lights with product information, pricing and delivery options. Larger projects can still be discussed with our team before purchase.
How do you decide how many lights a godown requires?
We consider the floor area, mounting height, racking and obstructions, surface reflectance, work being performed, target illumination and the photometric performance of the proposed fittings. A layout based only on square metres or wattage can produce poor uniformity.
What is a lighting design?
A lighting design translates the space and its required use into fitting types, positions, aiming or orientation, quantities and controls. Where project information allows, calculation software can be used to estimate illumination and uniformity before installation.
Are tubular tri-proof lights suitable for every warehouse?
No single fitting suits every warehouse. Tubular tri-proof lighting can be appropriate where linear distribution and resistance to dust or moisture are important. Ceiling height, aisle layout, target illumination and the fitting’s tested performance must still be checked.
Can efficient LED lighting reduce operating costs?
It can reduce energy use where efficient fittings and sensible controls replace older or poorly selected lighting. The actual saving depends on existing power, new installed power, operating hours, tariff and whether the proposed layout still achieves the required lighting result.
What information should I provide for a commercial lighting assessment?
Share the site location, floor plan or basic dimensions, ceiling height, photographs, operating hours, the activities carried out in the space and any current problems. For an existing installation, include the number and rating of the current fittings if known.
