LEDs Paving the Road for Light Panels and P.O.P Markets.

As an interest and demands for LEDs have been increasing, LEDs lighting system has expanded its application areas every year. It was mainly used for channel letter lighting source before. Now, it has been spotlighted in interior signs and light panel markets. Okay, take a closer look at why LEDs lighting system has increasingly developed in these markets.

Increasing Market Shares in P.O.P., Display Market
Since the 90’s, LEDs lighting system has already used for P.O.P. and interior sign systems. But its high price and the lack of understanding on it made the demand for LEDs limited in the market. Currently, LEDs lighting system has become much cheaper and many shops started installing more stylish and classic advertising systems. Consequently, P.O.P. and interior sign incorporating into LEDs lighting source have increasingly achieved market share. An industry unveiled as a great number of engraving machines have been sold in the sign market, LEDs lighting systems start to be applied to a wider rang of areas. Most of manufacturers producing the P.O.P., and interior-related items deal with a variety of lighting systems including LED, CCFL, T5 and fluorescent lighting as the lighting source of their products. Sunggyoon You, manager of Samhwa Co., Ltd., explained “LEDs P.O.P., products account for 50 percent in our total profit” On the current trends that LEDs lighting system increases steadily a market share, a official worker in the industry added that it is apparent that LEDs lighting system is leading the market because it doubles and demonstrates its potential strengths in P.O.P. and Interior signs. The LEDs lighting system is the alternative for the existing lighting sources with many weaknesses for P.O.P. and interior signs. However, there are a few people with the opposite view of this argument above. Sungkeun Woo, chief manager of POP Plaza, explained that due to its expensive price, LEDs lighting system is not ideal for small-sized display yet.

High Performance of Dimming Effect and Consistent Colors
Except for super small-sized products, there are more examples of P.O.P., and interior signs incorporating into LED lighting system despite of its skyrocketing price. The prime reason on its increasing applications is that LED lighting system would be easy to handle and apply into the conventional P.O.P. items. Yoonho Jung, assistant manager of Hanbit Ad, unclosed “recently, the number of shops rolling out LEDs interior signs has been multiplying because of the easy replacement of the old lighting sources without any additional cost. LEDs manufacturing companies have already unveiled the LEDs lighting system to be tailored to match standardized P.O.P. goods to the market. Originally, LEDs lighting system is so small and its power supply is so low that it can be basically proper for P.O.P. and interior signs that are usually restricted by the size and installing spaces. The biggest strength of LEDs lighting systems is to display a variety of illumination outcome. LEDs lighting systems are attracting a lots of people’s interest through its dimming effect and a variety of lighting colors.

Durability and Stability for Outdoor Application
To date, LED lighting systems have been actively applied into light panel products after the success of application into interior signs. As alternative lighting sources for the next generation, they have been paid a great attention from outdoor advertising industry. Thanks to its durability and stability, they have extremely high possibility of replacing the existing lighting fixtures on the streets. The light panel products with light guide plates have the big problems like lighting-up delay in low temperature and breakdown resulting from customer’s carelessness. LEDs lighting systems are regarded as a trouble-solving broker for what the conventional lighting systems have caused. LEDs lighting systems will settle out some operation problems happening not in lower temperature but higher temperature. For this reason, if LEDs lighting systems are applied to light panel products, the outdoor durability of light panel products could be highly improved. LED modules nestled with epoxy resins will not be easy to break off. Moreover, LEDs lighting systems offer consistent colors for long-term applications.
