How Can We Reduce CO2 Output, Light Pollution and Environmental Pollution

?

The answer is simple, Start Specifying Light Tape

With everyone worrying about the long-term effects of climate change it's about time we started looking at little known alternative display lighting technologies like Electroluminescence that could have a massive positive effect if used properly.

Reduce CO2 output. We are constantly told by scientists, governments, environmental groups and the media that CO2 output is warming up the planet yet we use display lighting that gobbles up power, Light Tape uses less than 1/20th the power of Neon and Cold Cathode and 1/4 of the power of LED's.

Reduce Light Pollution. Light Pollution is not only making Starry Nights a distant memory it is reportedly having a major impact on Nocturnal insects and animals, Light Tape produces light at a wavelength that can be seen up to 4 times further and at a fraction of the brightness of the incandescent systems causing light pollution, Light Tape produces no infrared radiation and no ultraviolet emissions. Let's try lighting up the venue not the sky.

Reduce Environmental Pollution. We are poisoning our environment with the disposal of the chemicals, gas, glass and heavy metals used in the production of traditional lighting products like neon, cold cathode, florescent and even LED. Light Tape uses no glass, no gas and no heavy metals in it's production or it's components and is fully recyclable.

"Most lighting systems are designed around brightness, but it is becoming increasingly clear that brightness is not necessarily the optimum design point. Besides the problems associated with night vision, incandescent light systems consume large amounts of energy, produce heat are bulky and of lower reliability."

Light Tape uses less than one tenth of the power and is one third of the price of Neon and Cold Cathode display lighting, it is flexible, easier to install and maintain, reduces light pollution, produces no waste heat or infrared light, is fully recyclable, uses No Gas, No Glass and No Mercury.

Generating the electricity used to run 100m of Neon for a year produces over half a Ton of CO2 the electricity used to run the equivalent length of Light Tape produces less than 20Kgs of CO2.

Light Tape v Neon Neon 15mm (Mercury/Argon) Light Tape 25mm

Watts Per Metre 28.7 1

kWh PA/100m 12570 438

Cost PA/100m 1,257.00 43.80

Annual CO2 Kgs 527 18.5

Annual CO2 Tons 0.53 0.02

Light Tape with its wealth of benefits, versatility, ease of application, cost effectiveness and extremely low carbon footprint is fast becoming the chosen, viable alternative to more traditional forms of display lighting.(1 Watt per Meter at 25mm (1") wide, a 100m length of 25mm wide Light Tape only uses the same power as a 100w light bulb).

What is Light Tape?

Light Tape is made up of a DuPont metal ribbon coated in GTP-Sylvania phosphor and encapsulated in a Honeywell laminate. Light Tape has no glass, no gas, and no mercury/heavy metals and so is user and environment friendly. Light Tape provides an 85% 90% energy saving against other commercially available light sources such as Neon and Cold Cathode and due to its thinness (just 0.5mm thick, as thin as a business card) and being lightweight, affords inherent flexibility of use providing a neater, modern, space saving alterative that is easy to install with little to no maintenance and has a long working life.
