Epistar

To understand major LED technology development trends, one just needs to visit Epistar’s booth at the Frankfurt lighting show. Main LED technologies exhibited at the booth included flip chip LED, HV LED, HV LED COB modules and other related applications. The company also displayed a flip chip COB module developed with client Unistars. Another product developed with client Everlight showcased at the booth was a white chip COB module.

Taiwanese luminaire manufacturer Everlight took on a completely different approach from last year. The company did not highlight its main Everlight brand at the show, but instead attended the show under subsidiaries Zenaro and WOFI. The booth’s main theme was lighting and luminaires.

Everlight’s strategy in the European and U.S. market is promoting Zenaro and WOFI. WOFI a German luminaire manufacturer that is focused on the residential lighting and decorative lighting field was acquired by Everlight in 2013. Zenearo on the other hand is mainly responsible for lighting retail distribution channels in North America and the bidding market. The subsidiary specializes in industrial lighting and outdoor lighting bids in Europe to differentiate itself from WOFI.
