LED

20% of the global electricity is consumed for Lighting. Compact fluorescent bulbs use about one third as much electricity as incandescent. LED bulbs use about one tenth as much and over their 50,000 to 100,000 hour lifetime are cheaper than compact fluorescents. With Stanyl® ForTii™, DSM Engineering Plastics offers the best technical solution for LED housings and modules.

Extreme high reflectivity levels and robust heat ageing properties enable more efficient LEDs with much longer life times. This leads directly to significant savings in energy, product life time, cost and CO2 emissions. Key facilitators for such a performance are the high temperature and mechanical robustness of Stanyl ForTii. In combination with Stanyl TC, a new thermally conductive Stanyl® grade for the LED sockets, DSM Engineering Plastics offers a total solution.

Customers get specialist DSM support in LED socket design to safe guard not only high LED output and life times, but also high efficiency through optimum heat management.
