Green Practices

Litecontrol has always operated with a high regard for our customers, our employees and the world around us. It's part of our DNA - a natural by-product of the company's engineering heritage and the rural locations of our factories. You could say that a great deal of "energy" has gone into ensuring that Litecontrol products are the most efficient they can be. We integrate this philosophy into everything we do; from our manufacturing processes to our packaging to the way we design our products. The fact is Litecontrol was a green company long before there was a green movement.

In our factories, we eliminated all water discharges from our various rinsing operations, recycling the rinse water instead. We installed two powder-coat paint lines that produce no VOC emissions or hazardous waste. All of our trimmed or unused steel and aluminum is recycled as are all of the containers and packaging materials from the components from our fixtures. Many of our fixture housings and parts are produced from recycled steel and aluminum and are fully recyclable when removed from an installation.

Also our products are among the most efficient fixtures in the industry. We make use of the latest in lamps, ballasts and material to optimize our designs. Exclusive to Litecontrol, LiteCycle wiring was developed to eliminate PVC-based wiring material used by other manufacturers.
