Direct answerThe industry is reducing its impact through energy-efficient products, greener manufacturing, longer product lifecycles and service models that avoid unnecessary shipping.
Sustainability Measures
| Area | What is being done |
|---|---|
| Energy-efficient products | Laser and LED lights use more than 60% less energy than halogen or discharge lamps |
| Mercury-free sources | Eliminates toxic waste at end of life |
| Green manufacturing | Low-carbon production with energy-efficient equipment and clean energy |
| Packaging | Foam-free and fully recyclable cardboard |
| Circular design | Modular component replacement instead of full-unit disposal |
Service Model Impact
- Remote troubleshooting resolves 70% to 80% of issues without shipping equipment
- Quarterly remote inspections prevent catastrophic failures
- Software upgrades and free calibration extend equipment lifespan
- Long-life light sources at 20,000 to 30,000 hours reduce replacement frequency
Component partnerships with brands such as Nichia and Osram, combined with CE, RoHS, FCC and FDA compliance, drive greener upgrades across the supply chain.
