Another bright idea from Sharp

At Sharp, innovation is driven by a passion for improving people’s lives while reducing their impact on the planet. For decades, Sharp has been bringing together leading-edge technology and environmental solutions. Today the company is a world leader in solar cell production, energy efficient appliances and business products, and environmentally friendly LCD TVs. Sharp’s newest products, LED lamps for home and commercial use, continue the company’s proud history of environmentally conscious design and practices.

With more than 40 years’ experience in developing LEDs for use in electronics, Sharp is excited to bring its expertise to the lighting field. Energy efficient lighting represents one of the easiest and most effective ways to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. It represents a major step in achieving Sharp’s vision for a low-carbon society.

As truly green products, Sharp’s LED lamps are the next stage in the evolution of lighting. They offer significant advantages over every alternative, including compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs). Sharp’s LED lamps create light levels and colour quality comparable to traditional bulbs while using the least amount of energy. This translates into a huge reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. With a lamp life of more than 40,000 hours—40 times longer than an incandescent bulb—Sharp LED lamps mean fewer replacements and less waste. Unike CFLs, Sharp LED lamps do not contain mercury, and they do not emit ultraviolet light. Like all Sharp products, Sharp LED lamps meet the highest standards for quality.
