As LED based systems continue to dominate most lighting segments, there’s one critical element that doesn’t get the attention it deserves—the drivers. Whether you're a manufacturer, installer, or end user, understanding the importance of high quality LED drivers that are reliable, sustainable, and compatible can be the key to successful project solutions. In this post, I’ll explain why these drivers matter so much and how they impact everyone involved in the supply chain.

Sustainability is a large and complex subject in any context. It can seem daunting and overwhelming when you first start the journey.

Sustainability is a topic I’m deeply passionate about, and I’m always eager to expand my knowledge. However, its complexity can sometimes feel overwhelming, making it hard to know where to begin.

The lighting industry has a rich history of innovation and advancement, shaping the way we live and interact with our environments.

As a marketer in the lighting industry, enrolling in the Lighting Industry Association's Love Light training was fantastic for my professional growth. This course provides an in-depth understanding of the lighting sector, crucial for anyone looking to excel in this field. Here's what I found particularly beneficial:

I recently completed The LIAs Love Light course which provides a detailed introduction to the lighting industry, something that is fairly new to me, having just recently graduated from university in Product Design.

Entering the lighting industry as a newcomer can be both exciting and challenging. From understanding the technical intricacies to keeping up with the latest trends, the learning curve is steep.

It’s fair to say, having spoken to numerous people in the lighting industry, that more people have ‘fallen’ into a career in lighting rather than having chosen it. That is no bad thing as 4 out of 5 people never leave once they’ve joined! My own experience was very much the same. I fell into the job during my placement year at university. But when I was offered a permanent role post-graduation, I was very excited to continue my lighting journey. We should pave the way for future generations to discover the opportunities in this exciting industry.

As the darker months set in, many people experience a dip in mood and energy levels, often linking it to Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). The change in seasons, especially the reduced exposure to natural sunlight, triggers this type of depression. Fortunately, SAD lighting can help combat the symptoms of this condition, and it's becoming increasingly popular as a natural, effective treatment.

In recent years, smart lighting technology has revolutionised the way we illuminate our homes and workplaces.
