Supporting its continued commitment to delivering innovative, energy-efficient products, Solatube® International Inc., the worldwide leading manufacturer and marketer of Tubular Daylighting Devices (TDDs), introduced its latest product innovation to its commercial product line, the Integrated LED Light Kit.

The new Integrated LED Light Kit allows the integration of natural light and traditional electric light from a single fixture for a cleaner ceiling appearance and nighttime illumination. It works by harnessing the sun’s (free) natural light during the day, and additionally offers cost and energy-efficient LED lighting at night.

In addition, the high-efficiency LED lighting system includes a dimming option that can be paired with manual and automated dimming controls, which is perfect for offices and schools where lighting control and comfort are important.

“We developed the commercial Integrated LED Light Kit in response to our customers’ desire for technology that would provide optimal lighting and energy savings,” said Robert E. Westfall Jr., President of Solatube International. “It’s an intelligent fusion of natural light and LED lighting that makes for a clean ceiling design.”

Cost-effective, energy-efficient, and eco-friendly, a Solatube TDD harvests daylight at the rooftop, transfers it down a highly reflective tube, and distributes it evenly into an interior space through a diffuser at the ceiling — on both sunny and cloudy days — with virtually no maintenance.

Solatube is proud to offer the highest Light Transfer Efficiency (LTE), the most consistent Color Temperature Maintenance (CTM), and the best light-to-solar heat gain ratio of any daylighting system on the market.

The first Solatube product was sold in 1991, and today more than 2 million people have improved their homes with Solatube TDDs, and millions more have enjoyed the benefits at department stores, schools, hotels, hospitals, grocery stores, offices, and athletic facilities. Well-known Fortune 500 brands have enhanced their customers’ experiences, while reducing their corporate energy costs, by incorporating Solatube products into their stores, offices, and facilities.

For Solatube, 30 years of innovation and thought leadership have evolved into cutting-edge daylighting products that will continue to deliver energy-efficient solutions that inspire and shine pure, natural light on residential and commercial spaces across the world.
