Cree Sets Efficiency Standard With Commercially Available 150 Lumens-Per-Watt Troffer


Durham, N.C. — Sept. 30, 2014 – Cree, Inc. has introduce the ZR High Efficacy (HE) LED troffer, an industry-leading commercial specification-grade troffer designed to reduce energy consumption by 70 percent when compared to traditional fluorescent troffers. That gives more design freedom to customers looking to achieve LEED certification.

Cree’s expertise in vertical integration and LED lighting systems has outpaced the industry once again by bringing a commercially available 150-lumens-per-watt LED troffer to market.

With a 100,000-hour lifetime — twice as long as comparable LED troffers — and an industry-leading 10-year limited warranty, the Cree ZRHE LED troffer is the ideal replacement for healthcare, petroleum, commercial building, and other applications that demand extreme reliability and long product lifetime.

The ZRHE LED troffer features Cree TrueWhite Technology and delivers 4,000 lumens of the industry’s best color quality in both 2-feet-by-2-feet and 2-feet-by-4-feet configurations. With 0-10V dimming capabilities standard, the troffer can deliver even greater energy savings and help meet emerging energy codes for new and retrofit installations that require 24/7 operation.

“The Cree ZRHE LED troffer pushes the limits of LED technology, redefining the standard for the commercial specification-grade market by delivering the breakthrough combination of energy savings, superior color quality, and reduced maintenance costs,” said Norbert Hiller, Cree executive vice president, lighting.

“Cree’s latest innovation delivers benefits customers have not had before and eliminates the need for compromised fluorescent alternatives.”
