Triproof Fixture Manufacturer insights can simplify the often technical language used in lighting product specifications—particularly IP ratings. Understanding IP codes is essential when selecting fixtures for areas exposed to water, dust, or impact.

At cigelighting, we frequently receive questions about IP ratings like IP65 or IP66. These codes are not as complex as they seem. The IP (Ingress Protection) rating is a two-digit number. The first digit ranges from 0 to 6 and measures protection against solid particles such as dust. The second digit ranges from 0 to 9 and indicates protection against liquids, including splashes and immersion.

For example, an IP65 fixture is fully protected against dust and can withstand water jets from any direction. It is often used in car parks, workshops, or outdoor corridors. On the other hand, an IP67 light can survive temporary immersion, making it better for more extreme or wet environments.

As a triproof fixture manufacturer, cigelighting designs lights specifically to match these protection levels. The materials we use, from sealed housings to silicone gaskets, are chosen to maintain the stated rating in real-world conditions. We also test each design to confirm that it performs consistently in environments such as food production areas, tunnels, or even cold storage facilities.

Understanding IP ratings helps installers and engineers avoid mismatches between a fixture's capabilities and the conditions it faces. It can prevent future issues like corrosion, malfunction, or water ingress.

With a product line covering multiple IP levels, cigelighting makes it easier for buyers to select solutions based on practical needs instead of technical guesswork. You’ll find options across a range of environments and mounting types, designed to support safety, visibility, and performance.
