Whether you work in a small business or a corporate enterprise, adding commercial skylights is an effective solution to improving a workplace. While it may seem simple, this installation can be incredibly valuable to any company. If you don’t have them in your building yet, here are three compelling reasons you should add skylights to your business. 

How a Commercial Skylight Can Improve Your Business

1. Energy Savings

Skylights provide a tremendous amount of natural light, and since it's directed from above, the luminosity is available throughout the bulk of the day. In many cases, businesses can bypass artificial light altogether with the correct placement and number of these roof windows. As a result, they can cut a significant portion of your company's energy costs by going for the natural light option.

2. Enhanced Aesthetic

The illumination provided by commercial skylights is also more visually appealing than artificial lights. Fluorescent lighting creates a harsh finish that diminishes the aesthetics of any space, from dining to industrial workplaces. Natural light, on the other hand, provides an appealing brightness that’s sure to impress both employees and clientele. 

3. Increased Productivity

Not only will access to sunlight make your business more attractive, but it can also boost the performance of your staff. A recent study showed a direct link between natural light and increased employee alertness and enhanced productivity. Exposure to natural light has also been shown to improve the health of employees, which results in fewer sick days. Considering those results, it makes sense that natural light is now one of the biggest contributors to a team's work-related satisfaction. With the natural light of commercial skylights, you'll be setting your staff — and business — up for success.
