Here's further evidence that lighting products distribution will change significantly with the shift to solid-state technologies: LED lighting manufacturer Luminus Devices, Billerica, Mass., has made a distribution agreement with electronics distribution giant Avnet Electronics, Phoenix, to distribute its lighting products in the Asia market through Avnet.

Avnet Electronics Marketing Asia will provide comprehensive distribution services, design-chain services and supply-chain optimization solutions to help Luminus' customers accelerate product development for a variety of general illumination and specialty lighting applications, said a Luminus release out today.

“The demand for our PhlatLight LEDs in Asia is growing exponentially,” said Luminus CEO Keith Ward. “Avnet Electronics Marketing Asia's reach and reputation in that part of the world as a specialist in distributing electronic components are exceptional and we're excited to be aligned with them in serving our customers.”
