Simi Valley, CA, USA - Zyloware Eyewear, a global supplier of high-quality
eyewear, is proud to announce that it is the first privately held company
based in Westchester County, New York to convert from fluorescent lighting
to LED lighting. Zyloware's new 50,000 square foot facility is illuminated
by LED lights from manufacturer Seesmart, Inc., a division of Seesmart
Holdings, Inc. (Frankfurt: APF). The retrofit began at the end of last year
and now Zyloware's offices and distribution center shine with 700 clean,
energy-efficient Seesmart LEDs.
In August 2010, after 87 years in the same facility, Zyloware moved its
corporate headquarters from Long Island City to Port Chester, New York.
Zyloware's new facility better accommodates the company, which has evolved
and expanded significantly over the decades, but didn't initially support
Zyloware's mission to improve its environmental impact. Zyloware quickly
identified cost-effective strategies to make the building and the company
more environmentally friendly and made the decision to replace its
fluorescent lighting with long-lasting Seesmart LED lighting.
'As an innovator in the eyeglass frame business, we also want to be an
innovator and role model in sustainable business initiatives. We are proud
to be the first privately owned company in Westchester County to convert to
LED lighting, and are already feeling the positive effects from this
conversion,' said James Shyer, Zyloware Chief Operating Officer. 'After the
conversion to Seesmart products, we immediately started saving as much as
40% on our electric costs from when we first moved in to our new facility.
We expect to recoup our investment in less than 2 years,' he added.
Seesmart's LED lighting is 50%+ more efficient than fluorescent lighting
and is rated for up to 50,000 hours of operation. LEDs produce far less
heat than fluorescents, decreasing the demand on air conditioning systems.
Thus, the transition to LED lighting reduces Zyloware's energy expenditure
and consequently its carbon footprint. In fact, the retrofit reduces
Zyloware's CO2 footprint by over 146,000 lbs annually, a dramatic step in
becoming a more environmentally responsible company. Zyloware has even
installed motion sensors throughout its facility to further reduce energy
use.
The retrofit has also positively impacted employee comfort and
productivity. Since switching to Seesmart products, Zyloware employees have
experienced a reduction in eye strain and glare caused by fluorescent
lighting. Their facility is now absent of the constant humming noise
produced by fluorescent ballasts. Some areas of the facility are even
achieving 27 more footcandles with LED lighting than they were with
fluorescents. The color temperature of the LED lighting is also important
to Zyloware's manufacturing. At 5,800 Kelvin, the day white LED lamps mimic
the color of sunlight, which allows employees to see colors much the same
way they appear in natural light - a great benefit for designing eyewear.
For nearly a century, family-owned and operated Zyloware Eyewear has prided
itself on quality, service and customer satisfaction. Zyloware is committed
to environmental initiatives, and with the addition of Seesmart LED
lighting throughout its facility, is making huge strides in becoming more
environmentally responsible. The company continues to explore further means
by which to reduce its environmental impact.
