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., July 9, 2013 – 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 JAYLŪM
pendant luminaire and the Halo HU20 LED undercabinet system.
Both products were selected by the NGL’s industry panel and judged against strict performance standards,
which include color quality, appropriate illuminance, light distribution, glare control and energy efficiency to
name a few.
The Halo undercabinet product generated additional praise in two other competitions, the 2013 Architectural
SSL Product Innovation Awards (PIA) and the 26th annual appliance DESIGN Excellence in Design (EID)

Awards. The IRiS P3LED, the world’s first Zhaga complaint downlight luminiare, also garnered recognition in
the PIA Awards.

impressive feat makes the company the most decorated in the competition since its inception, including the
recognition of more than 100 awards over the last 10 years. This year’s platinum, gold and silver awardwinning products include energy efficient indoor and outdoor LED product solutions designed to satisfy a
range of commercial and residential needs.
