Our Proprietary Fluorescent TUFBEND® U-lamps


As part of the LightSources group since 2009, Voltarc Technologies Inc. is the leader in the signage industry and architectural lighting dating back more than 75 years to our origins.  We have an unrivaled portfolio of high-quality products that includes fluorescent sign lamps, neon tubing, long lamps, U-lamps, and our unique cup-cathode construction that provides unsurpassed electrical life to the TriLight Max Series of fluorescent lamps.

One product we are extremely proud of is our TUFBEND® U-lamps, which are the top choice of sign-makers across the country for exterior fluorescent signs due to the high-output of the lamps.  Designed to simplify the construction of signs with difficult applications and irregular shapes, u-lamps provide an ideal solution as they require support at only one end while still offering the proper amount of light at the bend end.

As an industry standard, Voltarc’s TUFBEND® U-lamps can help sign-makers to cut labor and material costs up to 50 percent.  With the tough, heavy wall glass and patented stabilizing brace in our proprietary lamps, it provides an opportunity for significant changes in sign design, construction and maintenance.  Signs with U-lamps cost less and require less maintenance as each lamp does twice the work of a similar straight lamp.  Sign-makers have more freedom regarding the size and shape of their designs when using u-lamps because sockets are in the same plane and require only one raceway, which eliminates cross-wiring.   Also signs designed using u-lamps require fewer ballasts, sockets and lamps thus reducing construction costs as well as maintenance costs down the road. 

Furthermore, Voltarc’s TUFBEND® U-lamp’s bent ends will fill space that otherwise may have required the installation of straight lamps so there is no need for lamp overlap to realize bright, even illumination.  See our website to learn more about how our patented technology can help you with the design of your next sign.  

The LightSources group is the leading high-tech designers and manufacturers in the lamp industry today.  Our team consists of the most highly skilled professionals that specialize in a range of innovative solutions.  Please contact us to learn more about our broad range of standard and custom lighting solutions.
