17th September 2019, Selangor - Malaysia as a whole has an aim to be a sustaining, greener country by the end of 2020. The Energy, Science, Technology, Environment and Climate Change Ministry had set a target of 20% of the country's electricity to be generated from renewable sources by 2030, but are we fulfilling that target?
Signify (previously known as Philips Lighting), who are moving towards connected lighting in line with being an all-connected, accessible innovator within the industry has pioneered many sustainable breakthroughs towards a more trendy and environmentally-conscious brand, and aims to be at the forefront of this lighting revolution. Since the LED revolution, lighting solutions are leaning towards energy-saving light-bulbs which are cost-saving in nature through the elimination of passive electrical consumption.
The company's recent initiative contributed towards the MAPFest Earth Hour celebration where Signify unveiled the soft launch of its 3Sekawan products. Focusing on reducing carbon emissions, the products which consisted of the Meson Surface Mount LED Downlight, UFO LED Bulb and the Stellar Bright LED T-Bulb were showcased alongside Philips Hue Wireless Lighting System in an experiential room dubbed the 'Signify Experience'. The proceeds from the event were donated to the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) which gestured towards a shared goal for sustainable and clean energy lighting.
The company has also taken steps both locally and internationally to ensure our sustainable principle is well-voiced through the B2B and B2C sphere such as our Sustainable Operations Program which focuses on reducing carbon emissions, improving environmental and safety performance of our manufacturing facilities.
