E.E: What are the ranges of products?
SEABOROUGH: Seaborough offers technologies for a better and healthier world, in three directions: I) Power Electronics, II) Healthy Lighting, III) improved phosphor materials.
Some of our solutions:
OneTLed: OneTLed is a unique LED solution for replacing fluorescent tubes, that works on 99% of all ballasts and fixtures – showing exceptional retrofit compatibility.
Ultima: Ultima uses an active power correction mechanism inside LED retrofit tubes, which reacts to the properties of the installed electronic ballast. It delivers a substantially more uniform power draw. The active-power-control driver design meets the EU norm in 82% of the cases – more than twice compared to the popular retrofit LED tubes.
SunLED: SunLED incorporates the right wavelength and intensity of near-infrared light, to brings its health benefits to indoor settings. Our patented technology has been scientifically proven by independently conducted clinical trials. SunLED can be integrated in a wide range of products, from lamps to consumer electronics and car interiors.
