Sourcing Lightings

• Check the brightness and color temperature of lighting products.
• Consider the harshness/glare, energy efficiency, and lifespan of the lighting product.
• Look for quality certification such as UL, ETL, DLC, Energy Star to ensure quality standards.
• Ensure that the products undergo strict quality control processes such as burn-in or aging tests, and electrical safety tests.

When sourcing lighting products, there are several key considerations to bear in mind:

• Determine your specific lighting needs. This includes the type of lighting (such as LED, fluorescent, or incandescent), the size and quantity of the lights, and any special features like energy saving or smart connectivity.
• Consider the cost. This not just refers to the upfront expense but also the annual operating expenses of the lighting system.
• Evaluate the quality of the products. Factors include lifespan of the lighting product, energy efficiency, brightness, color rendering index (CRI), and warranty period.
• Understand lighting safety standards. The lights you source should adhere to safety norms and have necessary certifications.
• Think about the reputation and reliability of the suppliers. Always refer to their past work, customer feedback, and industry reputation.

Energy efficiency is primarily determined by the technology used; for example, LED lights are more energy efficient compared to Fluorescent or Incandescent lights. Consequently, focus on sourcing lighting solutions that uses such advanced, energy-efficient technologies. Also, check for certifications from recognized bodies which highlight energy efficiency – such as Energy Star (NOI), BEE (India), and so on.
