SOITEC : SOITEC LIGHTING UNVEILS T8 LED TUBE PRODUCT FAMILY FOR NORTH AMERICAN MARKET THAT REDUCES ENERGY COSTS BY 60 PERCENT OR MORE
GlobeNewswire - Mon Jan 27, 12:17PM CST
Soitec Lighting, a division of Soitec (Euronext) serving the commercial, industrial and institutional sectors by selling efficient LED lighting solutions, has unveiled its new T8 LED tube product family for the North American market. This line of solid-state replacement products for fluorescent T8 tubes compliments Soitec's existing European tube series. With illuminating power above 110 lumens per watt in neutral white (4,000 degrees K), resulting in energy savings of more than 60 percent compared to fluorescent tubes, Soitec's LED tube is a highly efficient LED lighting solution. In addition, it has a lifespan of 50,000 hours - more than four times longer than the fluorescent tubes that it is designed to replace. This long-life solution reduces maintenance costs and, together with its high energy efficiency, offers a return on investment (ROI) of less than two years in typical applications.
