With the growing global energy market, there is need to find out energy efficient lighting options that could save money and energy consumption. With the energy-efficient lighting market estimated to grow 35 percent per year through 2012, YLighting, the retailer of modern lighting, continues to expand its energy efficient lighting options.
In addition to introducing a range of new Light Emitting Diode (LED) and fluorescent lamp designs, YLighting now provides educational content to guide consumers and trade professionals on selecting the best energy-efficient lamp for their needs.
Key factors in the development of the energy efficient lamping market include consumers' preference to be more eco-conscious, improvements in LED and fluorescent technology, and the upcoming phase-out of incandescent lighting in the U.S. market through the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007.In a statement, Sean Callahan, CEO of YLighting, said that modern design enthusiasts have always been early adopters of eco-friendly technologies, such as LED lighting and until recently, usage of LEDs was limited by the upfront price difference. He added that the company continues to work with renowned lighting manufacturers throughout the world to obtain new energy efficient designs and make them available in the U.S. market as quickly and economically as possible.
Expressive advances in technology and innovations in lighting design make energy efficient LED and fluorescent lamps more cost effective, functional and beautiful than ever. State-of-the-art LEDs are brighter and warmer than earlier LED generations and they remain drastically more energy efficient, durable and longer lived than traditional incandescent lamps. Due to their miniature footprint, they are also inspiring a host of new lighting designs, as they can be embodied into almost any form. While fluorescents have been around for quite some time, manufacturers continue to tailor lighting designs to accommodate them.
Callahan continued that the company continues to see more and more manufacturers release modified versions of their classic designs to now utilize fluorescent and compact fluorescent lamp options.
In other company news, TMCnet reported that YLiving announced the Knoll Space Annual Sale. All Knoll Space designs were 15 percent off and qualified for free shipping and free White Glove Delivery.
