Lewes, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/27/2016 -- This is the analysis and forecast of global market consumption of damp-proof luminaires (also known as light fixtures) with LED linear tubes or LED linear light boards - printed circuit boards (PCBs).

Damp-proof and vapor-tight lights can be found in a wide range of damp/wet and dusty environments, such as - parking garages (covered car parks); damp industrial facilities; subways, underpass/tunnels; sports facilities, indoor swimming pools/area; locker rooms; car washes; stairwells; food-processing facilities including walk-in freezers and grocery store cold displays; and an almost endless number of related locations with exposure to dust, dirt, humidity, water, varied temperature ranges, etc...

The value is determined by multiplying the number of units (lamps) by the average selling price (ASP) in US Dollars. The ASPs are not retail prices; the prices are based on the price of the LED lamp at the initial factory level.

IP Codes
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) publishes the IP Codes. IP Codes, International Protection Marking, IEC standard 60529, sometimes interpreted as the Ingress Protection marking; the equivalent British standard is EN 60529.

Market Forecast Product Categories
This market forecast of the worldwide consumption is presented for five-levels of Luminaire, segmented by the following IP Code classification categories:
- IP64
- IP65
- IP66
- IP67
- IP68

The designation to indicate the degrees of protection consists of the characteristic letters IP followed by two numerals (the "characteristic numerals") indicating conformity with the conditions stated in Table 1 and Table 2.

FIRST NUMERAL
Protection of persons against contact with or approach to live parts and against contact with moving parts (other than smooth rotating shafts and the like) inside the enclosure and protection of the equipment against ingress of solid foreign bodies in accordance with IEC 60598-1:2003.

Table 1:
Description of the IP Code Classifications (First Numeral)

SECOND NUMERAL
Protection of the equipment inside the enclosure against harmful ingress of water

Table 2:
Description of the IP Code Classifications (Second Numeral)

De-coding the IP classification - Example
Regarding the market data presented in the Publisher market forecast and analysis, the IP codes are shown exactly, for example:

IP65
By referring to the description(s) on the preceding pages, the first numeral tells us the following -
- Numeral (6) = "Dust tight - No ingress of dust"

The second numeral tells us the following -
- Numeral (5) = "Protected against water jets.
- Water projected by a nozzle against enclosure from any direction shall have no harmful effects."

This market forecast covers new LED linear luminaire, which are qualified by the IP Codes. Theproduct competition for the new LED linear luminaries is as follows:
- Install LED Tubes, with any required re-tooling, to existing fluorescent tube-based damp-proof luminaire
- Install other LED linear luminaries, besides the linear-shaped fixtures (round, square, etc)
- Install fluorescent linear luminaries with fluorescent tubes
- Install other lamp and luminaire technology, besides fluorescent or LED

The information is presented in easy-to-follow illustrations and text. Company profiles of selected manufacturers of the Damp-Proof LED Linear Luminaires and related products are provided. Terms, acronyms, and abbreviations used are defined.

In the process of this market research project, in addition to interviewing existing customers and potential customers of luminaries (light fixtures) used to house LED tube lights or LED-based liner light-boards for wet, damp or dusty locations (environments), Publisher Consultants also studied lighting manufactures of these lighting products.
During the market research process, Publisher analysts perform interviews with authoritative and representative individuals in the LED and lighting industry, plus - R&D and industrial/factory/manufacturing, from the standpoint of both suppliers and users of LED linear lighting products.

Increasingly, the automatic assembly and test manufacturing process for LED solid-state lighting products allow for mass-production capability. In addition, over the next few years, the average selling prices of the LED-based lighting products will be driven lower, as a result of production efficiencies, yield improvements (aided by quality controls), competition (both market competition and technology competition), marketing/sales distribution improvements, and other factors.

Market Opportunity Analysis - Market Dynamics
The study process by Publisher Consultants takes into account the following points:
- Standards (including general regulations & standards, environmental issues, etc.)
- Policies and schemes for promoting the penetration of LED lighting
- Industry trends in LED lighting fixtures
- Distribution/Sales Channel
- LED Damp-Proof Lighting competitive environment is considered

Since the light output of individual light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is small compared to incandescent and compact fluorescent lamps, multiple diodes are often used together. With continuing improvement of diode technology, high power LEDs with higher lumen output is enabling the replacement of other lamp technology with LED lamps.

Luminaries are lighting fixtures complete with the light source or lamp, the reflector for directing the light, an aperture (with or without a lens), the outer shell or housing for lamp alignment and protection, components, and connection to a power source, and usually a socket to hold the lamp and allow for its replacement.

The light emitting diode (LED) market, despite exciting innovative devices driven by technological advances and ecological/energy-saving concerns, still face challenges in overcoming performance/price limitations and in attracting widespread consumption.

Consumption Value Forecast
The global consumption value of LED-based linear luminaires in damp-proof lighting is projected reach $872 million in 2015. During the 2015-2022 timeline, Publisher forecast that the consumption (use) value is set to increase at an impressive "double-digit" average annual rate of 15.2 percent to $2.34 billion in the year 2022. Market forecast data in this study report refers to consumption (use) for a particular calendar year; therefore, this data is not cumulative data.

The Asia Pacific region held a lead over the America region in terms of value in 2015, and then, in 3rd-place, the Europe, Middle East, plus Africa region. HOWEVER - the America region is forecast with faster annual growth versus the other regions; the America region is set to catch-up and eventually takes the lead in relative market share.

Increasingly, LED-based linear lamps, which are ideal candidates to replace fluorescent tubes, are forecast to finding a niche in the damp-proof lighting market segment. LED efficiencies are set to exceed those of fluorescent tubes, with dimming and controllable color rendering readily achievable.
