■ Targets the European and prime global LED lighting market with comprehensive solutions

Starting with this exhibition, LG Innotek will try to promote and strengthen its status as an ‘LED lighting solutions provider,’ and is planning to launch aggressive marketing activities targeting global and European local component vendors and lighting apparatus providers.

The company has put in place a vertical LED manufacturing process; acquired eco-friendly LED lighting certificates approved by internationally authorized testing facilities; developed convergence technologies; and adopted the global standard Zhaga, as part of its efforts to reinforce its competitiveness in the LED lighting business and create additional differentiated customer values.

The company is determined to secure its position as an LED solutions provider with the capacity to provide customized products and technologies to their customers, based on its competitive edge and complete lineup of LED solutions.

The European market, where the company is preparing to launch a full-fledged promotional campaign, accounted for about 35% of the global LED market last year. In particular, the EU is expected to prohibit the sale of all types of incandescent lamps from the end of 2012, which leaves greater potential for the sale of LED lighting products than expected.

The caloric value of the LED lighting market is estimated to reach KRW 12 trillion as of the end of 2012, and may hit KRW 28 trillion by 2015.
