Cooper Lighting Amplifies Industry Reputation with 18 LED Product Awards


Company Achieves Record Number of Accolades for Innovative LED Lighting Solutions Array



PEACHTREE CITY, Ga. – Cooper Lighting, a division of diversified power management company Eaton, is reinforcing its industry reputation as a world-class lighting solutions provider by earning a total of 18 awards in a range of renowned industry competitions. In a span of just four months in 2013, the Lighting division earned these notable accolades, which recognize a variety of its innovative, indoor and outdoor light-emitting diode (LED) product solutions.



“These recognitions are a true testament to our employee excellence,” said Mark Eubanks, president, Eaton’s Cooper Lighting Division. “All of our team members strive to develop and deliver innovative products that make a difference to our customers, which is always our number one priority.”



Included in these awards is one of the most prestigious and stringent industry award competitions, the fifth annual Next Generation Luminaries™ (NGL) Solid-State Lighting Design Competition. The competition is designed to recognize and promote excellence in the design of energy efficient LED commercial lighting luminaires. In addition to being honored earlier this year in the outdoor competition, Cooper Lighting received recognition in the indoor competition for two of its innovative lighting solutions - the Corelite JAYLÛM pendant luminaire and the Halo HU20 LED undercabinet system.
