Fan’s Notes | Lighting Peak Season at End of October: How Street Light Factories Serve General Contractors Well

Time flies. We’re at the Lighting Peak Season at End of October: How Street Light Factories Serve General Contractors Well end of October, and only two months are left before 2026 ends. I’ve been chatting with peers in the street light industry recently, asking if they’ve hit this year’s targets.

This time of year is the peak season for outdoor lighting. Road construction, greening projects are nearly finished. The last step is installing street lights to complete the lighting delivery.

Unlike the old days when street light projects were tendered separately, general contracting is now mainstream. Many general contractors focus on civil works and road construction, and they are new to lighting projects. They don’t have stable long-term suppliers for solar street lights, so they search for suppliers online.

For factories that focus on real production, this is a great opportunity. But we need to solidify our technical plans and service quality.

I’m Fan. I’ve run this street light factory in Dezhou for more than 20 years. We’ve upgraded from sodium lamps to LED modules, all-in-one solar street lights and smart lighting systems. I serve projects in Liaocheng, Linyi, Heze, Shijiazhuang, Baoding, Handan, Changzhi, Yuncheng, Datong, Jincheng, Cangzhou and Zhangjiakou.

I’ve seen many rural lighting projects, municipal road lighting and LED street light renovation projects run into trouble due to fake specs. Many sellers advertise overstated wattages to attract buyers, with thinner poles and smaller batteries. The quotation looks good at first, but brightness drops sharply on rainy days. The project will fail acceptance, and the contractor gets stuck in trouble. That’s why I keep reminding everyone to avoid fake street light specs: confirm the full 6m solar street light configuration before comparing prices.

A qualified road lighting solution is far more than lamp poles and lamp heads. Smart street light light distribution, road uniformity, glare control, dimming strategy and energy storage balance all need careful calculation. If you don’t know how to prepare bidding documents for street light projects, our team can provide technical support and complete documents.

Shandong Yichuang Optoelectronic Technology Co., Ltd. has its own production lines. We produce solar street lights, grid-powered street lights, LED modules, LED street light heads and export all-in-one solar street lights. All products are insured by PICC, endorsed by sports champions. We hold CQC, CE, ROHS certificates, and CNAS lab test reports for every product.

Domestic business mainly covers Shandong, Hebei, Shanxi and Henan. We have local service sites in Dezhou, Binzhou, Liaocheng, Changzhi and other cities for fast after-sales support.

For export business, we cooperate with partners in Nigeria, Angola, Romania, Russia, Vietnam and South Korea. We have the full set of compliance documents for lithium battery shipments: Dangerous Goods Package Certificate, UN38.3 report, UN38.3 test summary, MSDS and dangerous goods identification report, to avoid risks in international logistics.

The industry is facing fierce price competition. But long-term business does not rely on low-price competition. What matters are implementation ability, stable delivery and after-sales guarantee.

If you are working on lighting projects and need solutions, calculations or factory inspection, welcome to visit our factory and talk. Contact: Mr. Fan | +86
