July 17, 2018

WELLESLEY, Mass., July 17, 2018–Stronger government regulations, rapid technological advancements, declining LED prices and reduced payback periods are driving growth in the global lighting market, according to a report by BCC Research.

Major players in the market include Philips Lighting, Acuity Brands, Panasonic and General Electric, among others.

“The global general lighting market is currently going through a substantial growth phase, with industry participants striving to meet the fundamental demand for a universal solution,” wrote report author Sinha G. Gaurav. “Such a universal solution is expected to meet the need of interoperability of different applications that at the same time should be easy to use and install.”

Market Challenged by High Purchase Prices and Highly Competitive Atmosphere

While newer lighting products such as LEDs and OLEDs are more efficient than past technologies, they have a higher initial purchase price; price consciousness by consumers can mean delayed purchasing. Meanwhile, the market is vast and well-established and is also flush with products. Brand loyalty is low, meaning companies must differentiate themselves by lowering prices and advertising, which are two factors eating into profits.
