The European organization explored how cyclical economic movements could increase growth opportunities in the SSL sector and how policies would encourage that possibility.
LightingEurope has published a whitepaper entitled “Serviceable luminaires in a circular economy” that explores how the lighting sector can contribute to and benefit from the so-called circular economy movement. Many LED-based lighting products today are not serviceable, although the potential to add some level of support for repair is certainly possible. And LightingEurope believes that the solid-state lighting (SSL) sector could benefit beyond the LED transition (sometimes called LEDification) currently underway, with the circular economy delivering added profits.

“We clearly see that the lighting industry, boosted by the fast transition towards LEDification, is moving in the direction of manufacturing circular products with extended lifetimes and additional capabilities compared to conventional products,” said Ourania Georgoutsakou, LightingEurope secretary general. Georgoutsakou stepped into the leadership position at LightingEurope earlier this year. LightingEurope is an organization that represents European lighting manufacturers, national lighting associations, and other parties in lobbying for policy matters that benefit the industry and in setting industry-wide, forward-looking market and technology roadmaps. For example, the organization has pushed the European lighting industry to accelerate the proliferation of human-centric lighting (HCL).
