Press Releases

The HKTDC Hong Kong International Lighting Fair (Spring Edition) steps into 11th edition this year, which marks the beginning of the second decade, and will be on stage from 6 to 9 April at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. It is expected that more than 1,400 exhibitors from nine countries and regions will gather at the fair, offering global buyers an exclusive sourcing platform for all finished lighting products, parts and accessories. Last year, the fair welcomed close to 21,000 buyers from 137 countries and regions. Building Future with Environmental and Smart Lighting HKTDC Research revealed that Hong Kong’s total exports of lighting products accounted for HKD8.9 billion in 2018, majority of which were exported to the US (35%), the EU (21.2%), and Mainland China (15.7%). In regard of the product trend, the lighting DIY market is booming than ever, particularly in North America and Western Europe. Decorative items are no longer limited to Christmas lighting but a variety of domestic lighting products, such as track lights, linear lights, spotlights of novelty designs are included. Another trend for the industry is highly linked with environmental concerns.  Lighting products of higher energy efficiency and longer lifetime are preferable. On one hand, many countries, including Australia, the EU, the US, and the Chinese mainland have already phased out imports and sale of most incandescent light bulbs. On the other hand, energy-efficient items such as integrated electronic compact fluorescent lamps and LED lamps and lighting apparatus are in demand. As for the future development, smart lighting system on the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), the technology to connect different devices and appliances at home, lighting apparatus as well as mobile devices by a smart platform, shapes the trend of smart living style.
