Lighting Industry

The incandescent lightbulb, a staple in lighting for over a century, has been officially phased out in the United States. A rule issued by the Biden administration mandates that light bulbs must emit a minimum of 45 lumens per watt, effectively banning the sale of traditional incandescent bulbs. This long-anticipated ban, which has been in the works for 16 years, is a significant step towards a more sustainable and energy-efficient future.
