MaxLite has received an “Honorable Mention” for its LED Edge-Lit Flat Panels, at the 2011 Lighting for Tomorrow Competition.
Since 2002, the competition has recognized the best of the new energy-efficient residential lighting products that are helping to transform the market for efficient lighting, including those with high consumer appeal and usage. All LED luminaires were evaluated by a diverse panel of expert judges, and judged based on their ability to produce high quality white light for their intended applications, while using less energy than comparable technologies.
As a past LFT winner, the company was recognized for its LED FlatMax Flat Panel, and according to the award brochure, “The judging panel was particularly impressed with the performance of this fixture.” BD+C
