Specially developed LED lighting for poultry

Reduce stress and increase productivity

Poultry houses vary, which is why lighting must be adapted to the animals' age, production type, barn layout and desired lighting control. RN Solutions helps you choose the right solution for your specific production.

LED lighting for poultry houses
01

Broilers

Lighting programmes focused on calmness, growth, feed intake and a uniform flock throughout the entire production period.

02

Rearing

Stable lighting control from the very first weeks, with the option to gradually adjust light level and colour composition.

03

Layers

Dimmable light, correct placement and colour technology can support behaviour, egg-laying and calmness within the system.

04

Aviary systems

Lighting solutions for multiple levels, nest boxes, walkways and the floor, so light is placed exactly where the animals move.


Ceiling lighting for poultry

FARM-LIGHT™ for layers
and broilers

Linear ceiling light with specially developed lens for even light distribution across the entire floor area — IP69K, Flicker Free and Plug 'N Play as standard. Connects directly to a 230V single-phase supply without a transformer or special installation — resulting in low installation costs and easy integration into the existing electrical installation.

Ceiling lighting

FARM-LIGHT can be mounted directly on the ceiling or suspended by wire, depending on the layout of the house and mounting height. Regardless of mounting method, the fixture provides an even and uniform light level across the entire floor area - with no blind spots or dark zones in the house.

Special lens with wide dispersion

The specially developed lens distributes the light optimally with a dispersion angle of 130° or 190°. This ensures the correct lux level from edge to edge - regardless of mounting height and house width.

IP69K, Flicker Free and Plug 'N Play

FARM-LIGHT withstands washing, disinfection and high-pressure cleaning. Flicker Free technology has been tested by DTU Risø and makes the fixture particularly well-suited for poultry. Up to 60 fixtures can be daisy-chained with Plug 'N Play.

For rearing & broilers

BROILIE™ for rearing
and broilers

Innovative LED colour technology with growth-promoting green light. BROILIE helps create a calmer and more secure environment - especially during the first 17 weeks - and makes it easier for the chickens to find feed and water, promotes feed intake and reduces stress in the flock.

IP69K & Flicker Free

Better feed efficiency and growth

Specially developed green light promotes feed intake in broilers and during rearing, resulting in up to 2–4% lower feed consumption and 2–4% increased slaughter weight. The result is a more uniform slaughter weight across the flock and better economic returns from placement to slaughter.

Creates calmer animals

The unique colour technology reduces unrest and creates a calmer flock – particularly during the first critical weeks. Less stress leads to improved immunity and lower mortality, resulting in a more stable production process.

Robust and dimmable

BROILIE comes with Flicker Free technology and an IP69K rating for moisture, dust and high-pressure cleaning. The fixture is fully dimmable via TRIAC / STO and specially coated against ammonia for a long service life in demanding poultry environments.

For layers & rearing

BIRDIE™ for layers
and rearing

Revolutionary LED colour technology for aviary systems. With red light on the tiers and blue floor light, hens are encouraged to move upwards towards the nest boxes. In addition, feather pecking is reduced, while blue light can also be used for catching – giving greater control over behaviour and laying location.

Less feather pecking & floor eggs

BIRDIE uses red light on the tiers to attract hens up towards the nest boxes, significantly reducing the risk of feather pecking and unwanted floor eggs. This improves laying location and allows more efficient use of the aviary system.

Behaviour control

Blue light on the floor can reduce floor eggs and drive the hens away from the floor, making catching faster and gentler. The system provides greater control over the hens' movement and laying location throughout the entire production cycle.

Robust and fully dimmable

BIRDIE features Flicker Free technology, an IP69K rating and 0–100% dimming via 0–10V control. A special ammonia-resistant coating ensures a long service life even in the most demanding poultry environments.

Operational benefits

Correct lighting has a direct impact on poultry house operations

With targeted LED lighting, you can ensure the right lux level and a stable lighting rhythm throughout the poultry house. This supports growth, feed intake and egg-laying, while also improving animal welfare and providing a better overview of day-to-day operations.

Recommended light level 20–50 lux in production and control areas
Daily light period 14–16 hours for stable production and laying
Lower energy consumption up to
50–80%
when switching to LED lighting
Long service life up to 88,000 hours with robust LED solutions

The financial outcome depends on the size of the house, existing lighting, desired lux level and operating hours. With a correctly designed LED solution, energy consumption can be reduced significantly, while the lighting is adapted to the individual sections of the poultry house – from start-up and growth to egg-laying.

Practical experience

What our customers notice in practice

Better visibility in the poultry house

With correctly positioned LED lighting, staff benefit from better working light during daily inspections. This makes it easier to assess the birds' behaviour, monitor activity in the house and identify issues at an early stage.

A calmer flock with flicker-free light

Poultry are sensitive to light and flicker. That is why many choose a flicker-free LED solution, where the light can be dimmed smoothly and adapted to the production without unnecessary disturbance.

Robust lighting for demanding poultry environments

Poultry houses place high demands on lighting. The fixtures must withstand dust, moisture, ammonia and cleaning – while significantly reducing energy consumption.

Colour technology in the poultry house

Red, green and blue light affect poultry differently

Poultry perceive light differently from humans. Blue light has a calming effect, while green light promotes activity and growth. With the right combination, you can influence behaviour, reduce stress and optimise production.

Green light

Growth & activity

  • Promotes feed intake and growth in broilers
  • Increases activity levels in the flock
  • Helps chickens orient themselves towards feed and water
  • Reduces pecking and restless behaviour
  • Particularly effective during the first weeks after placement
Used in BROILIE™ For rearing and broilers

Red light

Laying location & tiers

  • Attracts hens up onto the tiers towards the nest boxes
  • Significantly reduces the number of unwanted floor eggs
  • Influences the hens' movement patterns in the aviary system
  • Improves the use of available nest box space
  • Can be combined with blue floor light for optimal effect
Used in BIRDIE™ For layers and aviary systems

Blue light

Calmness & fewer floor eggs

  • Has a calming effect on hens and chickens
  • Can be used for catching by encouraging hens away from the floor
  • Reduces stress during handling and transport
  • Reduces the risk of floor eggs in aviary systems
  • Can be combined with red light for precise behaviour control
Used in BIRDIE™ For layers and aviary systems

Coloured light is a supplement to the correct lux level and a stable lighting rhythm — not a replacement. RN Solutions tailors the solution to the house type, production stage and specific challenges in the poultry house.

LED fixtures developed for
modern poultry houses

Poultry production places special demands on lighting. The light must be precisely dimmable, flicker-free and at the same time withstand moisture, dust, ammonia, disinfection and high-pressure cleaning. That's why RN Solutions works with LED fixtures, cables and lighting control developed specifically for demanding barn environments.
