Superior Lamp Lighting Products Country of Origin

SUPERIOR LAMP PRODUCT TIP

COUNTRY OF ORIGIN

In today’s multi-national economy, some of our customers have wondered which countries supply Superior Lamp's product. In selecting manufacturers for our Premium Quality products, Superior Lamp follows these purchasing criteria:

1. Quality: Regardless of where something comes from, it must meet or exceed our high quality standards. This gives our customers excellent service and value for their lighting dollar. Quality also protects your repeat business, keeping YOU #1.

2. We buy American whenever domestic products are available in our quality specifications. We support the USA and back up this support with our purchasing dollars. Keeping America’s economy healthy helps S.L. and helps you and your family.

3. If some products are sourced from non-domestic manufacturers, it means that either:

A. This product isn’t made domestically, making it likely that other lighting companies need to import it as well.

or

B. Domestically made products do not meet our quality standards. These may include specialty lamps such as Tubulars, Indicators, and selected Decorative lamps.


Regardless of the country of origin for Superior Lamp's products (which is America for the majority of the items), our customers can rest assured that Premium Quality is the #1 priority

Superior Lamp Product Tip

Energy-Saving HEAVY-DUTY™

Increasing nationwide electrical infrastructure costs. Increasing electrical demand. Carbon taxes on coal power. These are all topics that are or will be raising your customer’s energy costs. With the current focus on energy prices making national headlines, many people are thinking about items to cut back on energy usage. Most of Superior Lamp’s products can save electricity. This week we will focus on one of the lamps that S.L. has sold for many years…the HEAVY DUTY™ incandescent.

Some may ask “Why use HEAVY-DUTY™ instead of our energy-efficient Enviro-Twist™ spiral lamps?”…The answer: Because it’s fool-proof and it saves 12% in energy costs! It’s like getting a 12% drop in your electric rate for those sockets! And it carries a great 24 month warranty.

Unlike Enviro-Twist™ spirals, HEAVY-DUTY™ incandescent lamps can be used on dimmers, can be changed with pole-changers. They can also be used in extreme cold without any problems, they come on to full brightness instantly (no warm-up time), and are a rugged, rough service design. Yes, the Enviro-Twist™ saves the most energy, but they can’t be used in as many locations. The HEAVY-DUTY™ is fool-proof.

HEAVY-DUTY™ have been an anchor of the S.L. product line for over 20 years. Developed during the energy crisis of the 1970’s, the HEAVY-DUTY™ was designed as an energy-saving replacement of standard incandescents. It had another great feature; with its rough-service long-life design, it could carry a terrific warranty.

Re-lamping just 30 standard 100-watt lamps with
HEAVY-DUTY™ lamps could provide $315.30 annual savings! That means these lamps would pay for themselves in as quickly as 5 months! Plus, there would be additional savings from lowered air conditioning usage, and from the labor and lamp costs saved by lasting up to 24 times the life of a shortlife lamp.

Remember that your HEAVY-DUTY™ lamps are both great energy-saving lamps, and great extra-long life lamps.
Good Selling!

*Annual savings calculated using lamps operating 24Hr/day for 365 days/year at $.10 per Kwh.
