LED Lighting in Showcases, Carts, and Kiosks: Aesthetic Enhancement and Functionality

In the world of commercial displays, proper lighting can make the difference between a product that goes unnoticed and one that captivates customers. At Custom Showcases, we understand that light is not only for seeing but also for selling. That is why all our models can include high-efficiency LED lighting systems, carefully selected to highlight your products and create a visually impactful experience.

Why Use LED Lighting?

LED technology has transformed the way commercial spaces are illuminated thanks to low energy consumption, long lifespan, and the ability to provide clear, focused light without excessive heat—ideal for closed showcases or spaces where products must remain in optimal conditions.

Types of LED Lighting We Use

• Puck-type LED lights
• Linear LED bars

Puck-type LED Lights: Precise and Elegant Illumination

Puck lights are small, round fixtures, usually recessed into the showcase ceiling. Their name comes from their resemblance to a hockey puck. They are ideal for focused lighting that highlights featured products.

• Create a dramatic effect, perfect for jewelry, watches, or exclusive products
• Discrete and aesthetic installation
• Adjustable angles to create depth
• Available in warm, neutral, or cool light depending on the product

Common applications:

• Jewelry and watch showcases
• High-value cosmetic carts
• Kiosks with top display cases

We use UL or CE-certified puck lights with anodized aluminum housings and diffusers to prevent glare.

Linear LED Bars: Even Light Distribution

LED bars are ideal for diffuse, even, and continuous lighting. They can be installed horizontally or vertically depending on the showcase or kiosk design.

• Continuous illumination across the product surface
• Suitable for multi-level shelves
• Low energy consumption, ideal for prolonged use or battery-powered carts
• Can be hidden inside the frame for a “floating” effect

Common applications:

• Clothing, eyewear, electronics, or packaged food showcases
• Closed kiosks with internal shelves
• Mobile carts with illuminated side zones

We offer LED bars in various lengths and color temperatures: 3000K (warm), 4000K (neutral), and 6000K (cool), with direct installation or magnetic clip options.

Combined Systems

We combine pucks and LED bars to balance visual impact and coverage. For example, pucks above to highlight star products and bars on shelves for full visibility.

Extras Available

• Hidden switches
• Dimmers
• Optional motion sensors
• 12V or 24V connection depending on need
• Integrated transformers in secure compartments

Safety and Durability

All LED lighting we use is designed for commercial use and meets these standards:

• Supports prolonged operation (over 30,000 hours)
• Does not generate significant heat, protecting products and structure
• Encapsulated or protected against moisture and dust
• UL-listed power supplies for US and Canada

We also use aluminum channels and diffusers to protect LEDs, soften light, and avoid harsh shadows.

Custom Lighting Design

We offer advice for:

• Choosing color temperature (warm, neutral, cool)
• Optimal light distribution for the product
• Efficient electrical system design for autonomous carts or kiosks
• Battery-powered solutions with long autonomy
• Outdoor lighting with water-resistant LEDs (IP65)

The Right Light Sells More

Professional, well-designed lighting generates desire, trust, and sales. Proper placement, intensity, and temperature prevent shadows and discomfort for customers and display products in the best possible way.
