Phuket business: LED systems to dim costs

PHUKET: Businesses and private homes looking to reduce overheads and increase marketing and profit potential can benefit by tapping into the latest LED powered solutions.

Osram-Traxon (Thailand), have partnered with SAPL-CAL Solutions and Boonsoong Technology Co Ltd to showcase its latest products at the Phuket Life and Drive Show, scheduled for March 28 to April 2 at the Homeworks complex opposite of Central Festival Phuket.

Indeed, the latest energy saving LED light management systems about to hit the Phuket market look to offer substantial energy savings.

“These innovative products will be able to save building owners and individual homeowners an average of 50 to 80% on their energy bills if properly applied and utilized,” said Chaluckkamol Fuengchan, Managing Director of Boonsoong Technology’s Phuket office.

Using movement and light sensors, light management systems can save energy by dimming lights when the respective room, corridor, or passageway is not utilized, she said.

“Rooms and buildings can also be preset at a desired lighting output for the respective room or building even when the room is occupied.

“For example, a 100 Watt lamp will draw 100 Watts of power when lit up. With an Osram light management system, the respective 100 Watt lamp can be set to output 70 or 80 Watts instead, thereby saving 20% to 30%,” she explained.

“At 50%, the total savings can be quite substantial,” she added.

Traxon’s creative lighting applications, its exciting range of LED color changing arrays, and dynamic white LED lights – including the creative mirror tiles for home and hospitality applications – will also be on display.

Another interesting display to look out for is the Dynamic White Lighting series of liners and wall washers, which illuminates only the full spectrum of White Light (warm white to cool white) and also the spectacular RGBW series of color changing lights.

“Home owners who want to add some hi-tech display features to spice up their stylish homes should not miss the display,” Miss Chaluckkamol said.

In addition to interior lighting displays, the latest development in digital media will also be unveiled to the Phuket market.

LEDtronics digital billboards are a modern replacement for conventional, static billboards in the out-of-home media industry, explained Anthony Teo, Director of SAPL-CAL Solutions.

Together with technology partner Daktronics Inc, LEDtronics provides one of the best digital LED screen offerings in the region.

“LEDtronics digital display solutions are essential tools to deliver target advertising messages for your front door customers.

“Besides, customers often use digital billboards to deliver corporate communications, enhance company’s reputation and their brand names,” he said.

Featuring easy installation and maintenance, high-quality video content and outstanding product quality, LEDtronics LED systems provide an overall hassle-free ownership experience for the life of the product.

Boonsoon Technology will support sales of LEDtronics LED screens for Thai markets south of Bangkok, including Phuket.

The upcoming Phuket Life and Drive Show is sponsored by the Phuket Gazette and PGTV.
