Lighting products can provide proper illumination while also significantly lowering overall cost

Ideal for end-users looking to improve illumination and decrease energy and maintenance costs, the Lumark Ridgeview LED luminaires offer a compact, efficient and economical approach to LED lighting that combines a low-profile design with excellent operating performance. For uniform and energy conscious illumination, Ridgeview LED fixtures include scalable IP66 rated led linear high bay light technology with patented AccuLED Optics? allowing for an energy savings between 30-70 percent over standard H.I.D. systems. Additional benefits include a warm white light of 4000K correlated color temperature (CCT) that won’t sacrifice lumen output; 50,000+ hour rated life, six times longer than traditional metal halide sources; and durable die-cast aluminum construction.

“More and more customers are turning to reliable LED fixtures to address their lighting needs,” said Mark Eubanks, President, Cooper Lighting. “While the shift is certainly due to the overall energy savings LED lighting can provide, we’ve found that many customers are upgrading based on the lighting performance associated with our LED technology. Our work with the Grand Traverse County Civic Center is yet another great example of how choosing Cooper Lighting products can provide proper illumination while also significantly lowering overall cost.”

Grand Traverse County funded the project in large part to a $45,000 Advanced Lighting Technology Demonstration Grant from the State of Michigan Energy Office. The grant was awarded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) for projects that create and retain jobs, save energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Funding was awarded to local units of government that were willing to demonstrate the benefits of advanced commercial lighting technologies in their facilities.

Cree is a proven leader in LED-based street and area luminaires,” said Christopher Ruud, vice president and general manager, Cree lighting. “Building on that success and combining cutting-edge form and function, Aeroblades luminaires leverage Cree? LED technology while incorporating forward-thinking and aesthetically pleasing architectural design to enhance the surroundings.”
