A Kerala-based company has started manufacturing LED Par lights, aimed at cornering the pie of the growing illumination sector, hitherto dominated by Chinese products.
According to K.R.Sunil, director, Reverie Constructions and Solar Solutions, LED par lights are widely used for commercial lighting and the domestic market is flooded with low quality Chinese-made LED par lights. Since they do not carry any guarantee, he said most of these products have to be thrown away in case of malfunctioning.
Claiming to be the first made in India LED par lights, he said that the company has set up a state-of-the-art manufacturing plant in North Paravur near Kochi to cater to the growing market demand. The plan is to manufacture 20,000 units in the current financial year and scale it up to 25,000 units next year. The products are available in the price range of ₹1500-7500.
