I run a warehouse that sells and embroiders baseball hats. We have lots of different colors of fabrics and many of them are very similar and I am struggling to find a commercially available "true color" light that will illuminate colors well in a warehouse environment. My QC area is approximately 300 square feet. Currently we have 4000k LED lights that are 84 CRI, they are mounted about 20'+/- above the table. One option is to install more of the same light fixtures and lower them to get more light to the table but I think trying to find a "true color" light would help us immensely. The specific colors we have trouble distinguishing are black/navy and light/dark green, but we also have dye lot variations that we need to be able to spot. My wife has an Ottlite that she uses for quilting and we tested it and it really illuminates the colors well, but it isn't feasible to check 8,000+ hats a day with desk lamps and I don't know if they make commercial size bulbs (or if there is a cheaper brand that is the exact same thing). I'm not sure what other information would be helpful for people to make suggestions to solve my dilemma. Thank you in advance.
