What are the latest trends in lighting and switches sector?

As a leading player in the consumer electrical space and the pioneer of the LED lighting system in India, our motto at Syska is to bring products with the latest technologies to the market. Smart LED lighting technology is catching up among consumers, and IoT-based smart home products are increasingly being adopted at a rapid pace. It not only provides ease of use with voice activation or an app, but it can also create a sense of security and allow homeowners to customize the home's overall feel. On the other hand, the illumination sector is evolving and improving to bring sustainable growth. The lighting industry is experiencing a major revolution with multiple outputs such as soft white, warm white, daylight, and cool white. Panel lights and down lights with various shapes are also playing a vital role in the trends for interior aesthetics.

What are the innovations happening in LED lights and panels?

Connected appliances incorporated with IoT are transforming almost every sector, and the lighting sector is no exception. With the ongoing research on the use of sensors and lasers in lighting, there has been an increase in the adoption of advanced gesture control and motion detection lighting. Growth in demand for durable, affordable, and environment-friendly lighting solutions are driving the market for solar LED lighting. Additionally, D.O.B (Driver on Board) based products and dimmable LED lighting are a lighting revolution. For society, Syska believes that technology-led innovations will drive the consumption of products.

How is design and aesthetics gaining traction? What are the latest design trends in lights?

As lighting plays a prominent role in setting the ideal mood and vibe in the house, we have introduced various products across variants like Glowring LED Recessed Down light, Rainbow Smart Strip lights, fan-shaped LED bulb etc. With the advent of LEDs, lighting has transitioned from analogue to digital as it can be controlled and monitored remotely. This has opened up a wide range of opportunities with applications in workplaces, homes, industries, and the outdoors, delivering unique aspects including greater productivity and energy efficiency. Chip on board (COB), lights across multiple shapes and sizes, concealed down lights (2-in-1) in various colours, smart strip lights that can be mounted, etc. adds an aesthetic value to the interior space of the consumer's home.

What are the energy efficiency features being introduced in lights & switches?

At Syska Group, energy efficiency is the central focus of our business operations as tomorrow hinges on the practices we embrace today. Lighting is a significant energy consumer, but lighting blended with innovation, sensors, and energy-saving roots can decrease the quantity of power consumed on lighting and increase energy efficiency. Adopting smart lighting will help a city to maintain its ecological balance and enhance living standards. Connected lighting solutions also let you remotely monitor and control various devices at home.

What are the trending products from the company in lighting and switches? What are the sustainability features?

We at Syska conduct in-depth R&D to understand the latest trends in the LED lighting space and design products that fulfill the needs of today's evolving consumer base.

What will drive the growth of lighting and switches market in future?

As the smart home technology sector is booming, the future of LED lighting technology is radiant as industries and societies have begun adopting smart lighting technology owing to its multiple advantages. Developing integrated lighting control systems, ongoing and future smart city initiatives in emerging economies, rising adoption and falling costs of LEDs, and growing awareness of energy conservation among consumers and governments globally are the key factors boosting the market for light control switches. Many Indian companies have also started to offer Li-Fi (data through light) solutions, which provide unprecedented low latency and reliability while delivering much higher security and safety. This is aimed to enhance and complement current cellular and Wi-Fi networks.
