July 16, 2009... Company?s commitment to sustainability considered key to protecting environment
Herndon, Virginia USA--Renaissance Lighting, a leading innovator in the development and manufacture of energy-efficient, ultra long-life solid-state luminaires, has established an industry-leading recycling program designed to keep Renaissance Lighting products out of the nation? s landfills.
This latest move marks another milestone in a series of Green initiatives by the company, which was selected recently to the 2009 GoingGreen East 50 Top Private Company List in recognition of its ground-breaking energy efficiency and energy management technologies, ?elegant product design, overall Market potential and its compelling, highly energy-efficient family of LED lighting fixtures.?
In addition to being 80 percent more energy-efficient than incandescent lamps and 30 percent more efficient than compact fluorescent lamps, Renaissance Lighting luminaires are now nearly 100 percent recyclable. This means that virtually all of the luminaire ? from its reflector to mounting frame to LED Light engine ? can be recycled. Luminaires once destined for disposal in landfills will return instead to Renaissance lighting for a binning process and subsequently shipped to Potomac Metals Inc., a privately held independent scrap metal recycling company based in Sterling, VA.
From our shipping containers made from curbside recycled material to our new luminaire recycling program, green consumers interested in replacing their existing Renaissance Lighting products now can safely and easily dispose of them without the worry of harming the environment,? said Barry Weinbaum, Renaissance Lighting CEO. Earlier this year the federal government?s General Services Administration (GSA) awarded a contract to Renaissance Lighting and placed the company on the GSA Schedule for five years in recognition of our unrelenting commitment to green technology and energy efficiency. We believe our Commitment to recycling captures and even magnifies corporate obligation to helping preserve and protect the environment.?
