PEACHTREE CITY, Ga., February 6, 2013 – Cooper Lighting, a leader at the forefront of transforming the
lighting industry and setting an unmatched standard for innovation and reliability, is pleased to announce that
its Halo brand of recessed, track and surface lighting products has once again been named the Brand Leader

sweeping all four lighting categories including Brand Familiarity, Brands Specified/Used in Past Two Years,
Brands Specified/Brand Used Most, and Quality. The company will be featured in Builder’s April issue.
“We are honored that the builder community continues to recognize Halo as their preferred choice for lighting
products,” says Cooper Lighting President Mark Eubanks. “Today’s legislation requires lighting products to
offer great advances in energy efficiency. Cooper helps builders adhere to this changing energy landscape
with innovative, top quality, reliable lighting products that will add to a home’s value.”
For 57 years, Halo has been the industry leader providing high-quality recessed downlighting, track, and
surface lighting products. With changing local and national energy codes and legislation, the demand for
energy-efficient alternatives is greater now than ever before. Halo’s comprehensive portfolio of LED products
continues to grow, addressing the need for ENERGY STAR®, high-efficacy choices to meet today’s
challenging needs. As homeowners become more receptive to new LED lighting technologies, they not only
want energy-efficient solutions, but high-performing and reliable products that create a comfortable living
environment.
Builder magazine’s 2013 Brand Use Study, sponsored by Hanley Wood, LLC, was conducted by the
independent research company Readex Research to provide an in-depth look at the product brands builders
recognize and use most and how they rate quality. The report highlights respondents’ opinions about brands
in 70 product categories. The 2013 Brand Use Study results will be featured in the April issue of Builder.
