Premstaetten, Itävalta, München ja Garching, Saksa, 5. syyskuuta 2024 - LEDVANCE jatkaa OSRAM-tuotemerkin yksinomaisena lisenssinhaltijana lampputuotteissa yleisvalaistuksen alalla. Lisäksi lisenssikumppanuus laajenee kattamaan myös yleisvalaistuksen valaisintuotteet Kiinan ulkopuolella.

Recognition Highlights LEDVANCE's Commitment to Sustainable and Innovative Lighting Solutions LEDVANCE, one of global leader in innovative lighting solutions, is excited to announce that it has been honored with the German Innovation Award 2024. The company has received the title for its groundbreaking product, EVERLOOP Linear Indiviled, in the category “Excellence in Business to Business: Lighting Solutions”. The German Innovation Awards recognize and reward industry pioneers who have made significant contributions through innovative products and solutions. The festive award ceremony took place on May 14, 2024 at the Futurium in Berlin. LEDVANCE’s EVERLOOP Linear Indiviled stood out among numerous entries for its exceptional innovation and advanced technology, setting new standards in the lighting industry.

In a new white paper, the Central Association of the Electrical Engineering and Electronics Industry (ZVEI) clearly defines in which cases the existing CE marking remains valid and a new CE declaration of conformity is not required when modernizing luminaires to LED technology. For electrical engineers this means greater planning reliability for using LED tubes.

First wave of all-new lamps and luminaires with at least 40 percent recycled plastics to be available in stores and online as of Mid-November. With the launch of its new NATURELOOP product range, LEDVANCE presses ahead with its LEDVANCE LOOP concept of transforming the lighting industry into a greener one. The all-new lamps and luminaires are made of at least 40 percent post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastics based on the plastic content of the product. Also, less CO2 is released during production compared to previous products. The first luminaires from the range are damp proof models as they mostly consist of plastics and thus offer the biggest opportunity for replacement with PCR materials. The six new products will be available in stores and online from January 2024. Before that, customers will be able to select from 20 new lamp types, coming to stores and to the LEDVANCE online shop in Mid-November.

Increased ratings in all four subcategories compared to last year Garching-based lighting expert LEDVANCE has been awarded a silver medal from EcoVadis for its sustainability performance in 2023. To evaluate its sustainability efforts and achievements and make them visible to all stakeholders, LEDVANCE has been using EcoVadis sustainability ratings since 2018, which assess performances in the areas of “Environment”, “Labor & Human Rights”, “Ethics” and “Sustainable Procurement”. Due to the company’s increased efforts to implement a global and holistic approach to sustainability through additional measures (e. g. by joining and committing to additional sustainability initiatives like SBTi, implementing a global sustainability strategy and new policies in several areas of the company, as well as publishing its first global Sustainability report), LEDVANCE improved its score in total and in all four subcategories compared to the previous year. Overall, LEDVANCE achieved a score of 65 (PY 62) out of 100 in the final report for this year. As with last year, this corresponds to an EcoVadis silver medal.

Sustainable solution to a circular economy: LEDVANCE EVERLOOP features luminaires with replaceable light sources and drivers The lighting experts from LEDVANCE launch a new product series, EVERLOOP, featuring luminaires with conveniently replaceable LED light sources and drivers. Rather than disposing of luminaires in their entirety, the product lifecycle of EVERLOOP luminaires supports various individual changes of light sources and drivers as well as software upgrades and thus maximize their lifespan and reduce waste. EVERLOOP products are not only a sustainable choice but also a convenient one for installers. The first model of the series to be available is the LEDVANCE Linear IndiviLED Gen 2 in December 2023 as direct and indirect versions with On/Off or DALI options respectively.

Uudella energiatehokkaalla LED TUBE EXTERNAL SYSTEM -ratkaisulla - joka koostuu LED-valoputkesta ja erillisestä DALI-2-liitäntälaitteesta – LEDVANCE tarjoaa LED-päivityksen nykyisiin T5- ja T8-loistelamppuihin, joka on sekä himmennettävä että sopiva turvavalaistukseen. Vaihdettavien komponenttien ansiosta se on myös erittäin taloudellinen ja edistää kestävää kehitystä kiertotalouden näkökannalta.
