Philips to focus on LED based solutions
Philips has announced it intends to re-focus its professional indoor luminaire activities to LED based solutions in the UK. The business will streamline its UK organisation so LED growth will be further accelerated.
Philips Lighting UK will still retain full focus on all outdoor luminaires, consumer luminaires and lighting controls.
Philips' existing lamps and control gear businesses are unaffected by this strategy.
Philips believes this repositioning of its business towards LED solutions will allow it to meet the current and future needs of its customers, bringing them the full economic, environmental and design benefits of this new technology.
This development is part of Philips' ongoing drive to accelerate a move in the market to more sustainable lighting solutions.
