Reliable Lamps Save OEMs Time and Money




OEMs across the globe have come to recognize that dependable, long-lasting lamps can save them both time and money by reducing downtime and requiring less maintenance. As an integral part of the LightSources group, LCD Lighting is one of the world’s leading fluorescent light manufacturers.  With specialty fluorescent technologies, we are able to provide proprietary, innovative solutions to assist OEMs in achieving measurable advantages over their competitor.

So what is it that sets our lamps apart from other manufacturers?  One reason may be that we have not been content to rest on our laurels but rather stay at the forefront of technologies by maintaining a large R & D division.  This has allowed us to work on cutting-edge research and to continue to develop new proprietary technologies for our lamps.

One such advancement is our Long Life technology, which is a special cathode construction that offers extra-long operating life when compared to standard fluorescent lamps. This means our reliable lamps not only run longer but require less maintenance and fewer replacement bulbs.  Long Life lamps are especially efficient in hard-to-reach places and applications include indoor/outdoor signs, advertising displays, architectural, building fascia, warehouses, retail lighting and more.   

In addition our thermal and thermal diffused lamps, perfect for use in cold temperatures, incorporate the Long Life technology.  We encapsulate T8 lamps in a T12 sleeve in order to provide thermal insulation and allow the fluorescent tube to reach its full brightness. 

Our fluorescent light technologies have set the bar for the industry’s standard of excellence and are among the best in the world.  Please visit our website to learn more.
