At Red Sky Lighting, we’ve spent a lot of time out in the field—on job sites where the weather doesn’t let up, the conditions are brutal, and the work never stops. And somewhere along the way, we noticed something:
Not every site calls for the highest level of classified, explosion-proof lighting. But that doesn’t mean you can get by with just anything.
You still need tough.
You still need reliable.
Because the elements don’t care whether there’s a hazard sticker on your light or not.

That’s precisely why we built the Harsh Line—lighting to take on salt, storms, chemicals, grime—with ease. The same hardcore DNA as our Hazardous Line, just without the extra classification you don’t always need. Because let’s be real: you don’t always need “hazardous,” but you sure need tough.

The real challenge isn’t always a spark or an explosion risk—it’s the constant beating from salt air, chemicals, pounding rain, blistering heat, or freezing cold. These environments chew through standard lighting like it’s nothing.
And when you’re using the wrong solution, you’re not just overbuilding—you’re overcomplicating.

• More equipment than necessary.
• More accessories.
• Heavier installs.
• Longer maintenance.

It’s time, money, and frustration—all for protection that the job doesn’t even call for.

The way we see it, not every job is hazardous, but every job is harsh, and every site deserves lighting that’s built to withstand it.
That’s where the Harsh Line comes in.
Same rugged construction, same “won’t back down” attitude as our Hazardous Lights. Just no explosion-proof classification—because not every site needs it.

With a NEMA 4X rating, these fixtures are fully sealed to withstand splashing water, hose-downs, swirling dust, and corrosive environments that would destroy an ordinary light. And thanks to that “X,” corrosion doesn’t stand a chance.

It’s everything you need to keep the lights on, the crew safe, and the work flowing—without all the extra layers that slow you down.
Fewer accessories. Easier installs. Less weight. Less hassle.
Because when the job is harsh, but not hazardous, this is the lighting built to take the hit and keep going.
At Red Sky Lighting, we’ve never believed in one-size-fits-all answers.
We believe in the right tool for the job—nothing more, nothing less.
The Harsh Line was built for job sites where failure isn’t an option, and for companies that know wise choices keep people safe and operations moving.

In the end, it’s not just about lighting—it’s about looking out for the people under it. And we always do this, thinking about safety and the client, because when the work gets tough, your lighting should never be the weak link. These solutions were built for the harsh.
