“Anchor is looking at opening more such LED lighting experience centers across major cities in India to strengthen its partnership with interior designers, architects, and lighting professionals,” said Otaki. “We hope that the expansion of this new lighting business will also generate synergy effects with Anchor’s largest business, wiring devices.”

Commenting on the launch Takeda said, “Our aim is to bridge the awareness and experience gap that exists in the minds of lighting experts and users. We wish to apply the lighting business experience developed in Japan, for India as well by introducing high-quality LED lighting products that are safe and reliable. With environmental deterioration and energy shortages becoming more and more serious with each passing day, energy-saving has become a part of the global development trend.”

The company has also introduced a service for offering lighting plans for residential spaces. Keeping in line with the fact that Panasonic offers over 200 ,000 residential lighting plans annually in Japan, this service will also be utilized in India to create lighting designs tailored to individual clients, working with their interior design requirements when constructing a new house or renovating their current residence. Lighting consultants can select suitable lighting fixtures and suggest lighting layouts that can be incorporated into architectural drawings of the home. This service targets home owners as well as interior designers and architects active in housing design. It is a service that promotes sophisticated lighting environments and the products are specifically designed for residential, hospitality, and architectural purposes.

India is one of the most important and strategic markets for Panasonic globally. Having set a base in the consumer electronic business, the company now has a renewed focus on the B2B and B2G business aiming to secure 8 percent revenue from its enterprise business. Panasonic lighting is the world’s third largest lighting company with global sales reaching to 3 billion USD, with LED lighting sales accounting for approximately 1 billion USD. As India grapples with challenges related to energy deficiency, LED lighting technology would be highly effective in saving energy and reducing pollution. For example, a Panasonic 5.5W LED down light source consumes less than 2.5 times of power than that of a 14W CFL lamp light source and has over 6.5 times longer life. (LED downlight’s life of light source stands at 40,000 hours compared to CFL lamp light source life at 6,000 hours).
