When LED technology appeared, it represented a revolution in the concept of lighting. It meant savings, durability and sustainability. But technology does not stop evolving. We tell you!

At the time, incandescent light bulbs were withdrawn from the market due to their high energy consumption, which made them inefficient products. They were replaced by low-consumption light bulbs, they consumed 80% less than the previous ones, but they were soon far surpassed by the LED.

Today, cities are full of LED lights: traffic lights, vehicle panels, public lighting… And when it seemed that the light bulb I couldn’t give more of myself, a new advance appears: smart light bulbs.
