A clear view of the lighting industry
As the growing global energy crisis continues to loom, there are companies examining and questioning the fundamentals of energy usage in an effort to find new directions in established industries. PureSpectrum, Inc. is one of those companies.
PureSpectrum is an environmentally conscientious high technology firm formed in Savannah, Georgia in 2006 and is at the forefront of the movement to examine the foundations of the lighting industry with the purpose of developing the technological building blocks that will serve as the cornerstones for the evolution of lighting. PureSpectrum’s values are grounded in an awareness of the depletion of the world’s energy resources and the need for fresh perspectives to provide viable solutions. Realizing that a reduction in energy usage in lighting is a critical component to any conservation strategy, PureSpectrum’s mission is to bring to light by bringing to market technology advancements in electrical engineering that will aid the lighting industry’s efforts to promote energy conservation.
PureSpectrum’s executive staff is a blend of diverse business backgrounds and expertise that enables to see both the science and the business of the lighting industry. Rather than develop technology in a vacuum without specific direction, PureSpectrum identified future challenges to be faced by the lighting industry and addressed those cost, performance and functionality categories through intuitive engineering. By anticipating the industry’s future needs, PureSpectrum created technology that can be implemented now and continue to be relevant in the future.
In addition to licensing its breakthroughs in ballast circuitry for electronic ballasts to manufacturers, PureSpectrum is also committed to working alongside utility companies to educate consumers and protect power quality as well as promote energy conservation. A study in New Zealand conducted in 2004 revealed that a massive introduction of low Power Factor CFL bulbs could result in consumers being forced to absorb millions of dollars in corrective measures to repair the electrical grid. Through industry research, PureSpectrum became aware of the impending Power Factor crisis, and all PureSpectrum ballast technologies are engineered with high Power Factor to ensure that any product powered by PureSpectrum technology will not contribute to the strain being placed on energy grids worldwide by the infusion of new lighting mechanisms.
PureSpectrum owns the rights to a family of patents, patent applications and provisional patents related to proprietary circuitry designs for ballast-driven lighting applications. The company is perpetually involved in new research and development, stretching boundaries and challenging accepted principles in order to continue identifying the ideas that will ultimately produce the most cost effective solutions for improving the way artificial light is delivered.
