CLEVELAND--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Consumers weighing the value of light-emitting diode (LED) holiday light sets versus traditional incandescent light sets this year may want to take some cues from commercial businesses, such as grocery stores, which are deploying LEDs all over the place: in parking lot lights, signage and even refrigerated display cases.
CLEVELAND--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GE Consumer & Industrial's drive to innovate and lead the way to general illumination with white, light-emitting diode (LED) solutions---on a global scale in commercial, industrial and residential settings---kicks off with a symbolic and meaningful name change. Going forward, GELcore, LLC, will operate as Lumination, LLC. The new name reflects the fast-growing business unit's vision of imagination with light, and embraces GE's heritage of innovation and optimism for the future.
