Panasonic’s energy efficient light bulbs are the first of its kind to receive the prestigious SLS certification in Sri Lanka. It is also the only light bulb in the market to be able to boast a t hree year warranty. The distinguishable spiral bulbs are conquering the market for energy saving bulbs by getting straight to the heart of the world’s energy problems as the compact fluorescents emit t he same light as t he classic incandescent but use significantly less energy than their incandescent counterparts, making them an increasingly popular way to cut energy use. In addition, they also deliver on exactly what the consumer has come to expect from a light bulb; their elegant, spiral shape fits into any light fixture and emits a strong, unwavering light that is silently and evenly dispersed.
More importantly, Panasonic’s CFL bulbs allow consumers to take that all important step towards joining in the modern green movement by making dramatic energy savings. As Sri Lankans are becoming progressively environmentally aware more customers are opting for eco-friendly products which give long term electricity and cost savings, thereby contributing to the country’s sustainability efforts.

Panasonic bulbs are also the only i nternational brand of light bulb to be manufactured in Indonesia giving t hem a slight edge over t heir rival manufacturers. Panasonic’s manufacturing plant in Indonesia excels in providing products of exceptional quality having received the globally recognized quality standard in the ISO 9000 certificate which highlights their continued commitment to providing their customers with unequaled quality, performance and reliability.
