We're back!

Actually, Philips brand horticulture LED lighting has been here all along, but we’re back to learn and share more about how growers are using horticulture lighting.

In 2016, we partnered with Greenhouse Management for our first State of Lighting project at a time when horticulture LED lighting was considered new technology and viewed with a fair amount of skepticism.

In 2016, we posed the question: Are you “considering installing, replacing or expanding your LEDs in the next 3 years?” 65% of respondents said no. Eight years later, research shows that 77% of growers have begun the transition to LEDs.

That brings us to another interesting statistic: four of the eight LED companies named as an LED provider in the 2016 study are no longer in business. This may be attributed to a flood of “lighting manufacturers” trying to cash in on the hot lighting market.

One thing that hasn’t changed in the 17 years since the Philips horticulture LED team was formed is our commitment to product quality, knowledge, research and direct grower support. Our boots on the ground in the U.S. and Canada, and around the world, are ready to help you with your lighting needs and share our lighting, technical and horticulture knowledge.

So, we’re not going anywhere. We’re ready and eager to help. If you’re thinking about installing or expanding your LED lighting installation, or taking the first step into LED lighting, Philips is the right place to start.
