HONG KONG, Apr 6, 2019 - (ACN Newswire) -
Organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, the 11th
HKTDC Hong Kong International Lighting Fair (Spring Edition)
(Spring Lighting Fair) opened today and continues through 9 April
at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC). More
than 1,430 exhibitors from nine countries and regions are featured,
with Japan taking part for the first time. The fair welcomes new
pavilions from Guangdong, Ninghai (Ningbo) and the Dali Aluminum

from the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and other
mainland provinces. Alibaba.com will also debut pavilions at the
Spring Lighting Fair, with selected suppliers from its e-commerce
platform going from online to offline to present their latest
lighting products.
To facilitate exchanges and business matching, the HKTDC has
organised 62 buying missions comprising over 4,000 representatives
from some 3,000 companies. These include Energy & Environment

Joyful Honda from Japan, Robinsons Handyman from the Philippines,

New Innobuild zone to support smart living and green
construction
This year's fair sees the launch of the new Innobuild zone, which
showcases innovative building technologies, practical building
tools, smart and green building materials, and hardware. The zone
highlights new technologies and construction methods that
complement smart lighting systems for domestic and commercial
purposes in response to the growing demand for smart living and
environmentally friendly construction.
Featured products include a vertical green wall from Canica
Building Materials (booth no.: 1A-D01) that suits both indoor and
outdoor settings. In addition to enlivening domestic and public
areas with dense foliage or colourful flowers with matching
lighting, the wall also serves to insulate sound and reduce air
pollution.
The Smart Lighting and Solutions zone returns this year in response
to this hot industry trend, exhibiting the latest smart and
remote-control lighting systems and products, as well as related
solutions that incorporate the new smart technologies into
lighting. Tuya Smart (booth 1C-E02) showcases its Internet of
Things operating system (IoT OS)-level plug-and-play technology.
This helps lighting enterprises to supercharge their development of
smart lighting products.
The Hall of Aurora continues to be the spotlight of the fair,
showcasing an extensive range of innovative lighting products and
technologies from more than 180 renowned brands, including MLS Co,
Shenzhen MOSO Electronics Corp, SKY-LIGHTING and Mooni Ltd. Hong
Kong-based Mooni (booth no.: 1E-D01) presents the Mooni Eclipse
Speaker featuring smooth curves, a pine wood handle and a concave
design that delivers powerful sound. The LEDs around the speaker
can create a fire-ring effect. Local exhibitor A-Z Star Electrical
(booth no.:1E-B18) presents a plug-in dimmer, which is remotely
controllable with Alexa, meaning users can easily switch lights and
appliances on and off anywhere, anytime with an app, even when on
the go. Users can set schedules and timers and adjust the
brightness of lights to suit different lighting needs at different
times.
Insights into smart lighting trends and industry developments
Prompted by the Hong Kong government's push on smart city
development, smart lighting and connected lighting systems were in
focus at today's Asian Lighting Forum 2019, at which
representatives from industry players and professional
organisations such as OSRAM, Signify, Illumination Physics,
Tridonic, TrendForce, LEDinside, Bluetooth SIG, and the Hong Kong
Applied Science and Technology Research Institute (ASTRI) discussed
industry trends, the latest technologies and applications in smart
lighting, and the market outlook.
Reflecting the growing prevalence of artificial intelligence (AI)
and the internet of things (IoT), a forum titled "Smart Lighting:
IoT and Its Supply Chain" will be held tomorrow (7 April), with
experts from Tuya, Alibaba AI Labs and JD Cloud sharing insights
into the application of these technologies in smart lighting
products.
Despite various economic uncertainties including the China-United
States trade dispute, some of Hong Kong's lighting export markets
recorded satisfactory growth last year, with Mainland China up
8.5%, Japan rising 10.4% and the United Kingdom growing 8%.
