The LED lights delivered over 65% more lumens to the gym floor while cutting the energy usage by 49%. When you start looking at those types of figures it can be a very compelling argument for change.”About Affineon LightingAffineon Lighting was founded in 2005 to explore the new opportunities presented in high power, solid state LED lighting.
