Lighting

RightLight website launched

Summarised from the Lighting Council New Zealand website 'News & Views'.

The government's launch of the RightLight website (www.rightlight.govt.nz) is welcomed by the industry. It contains independently sourced advice about good lighting practice for both the domestic and the business consumer. It is couched in terms the interested site user will understand and allows good decisions to be made before a purchaser buys a product.

The RightLight website follows in the footsteps of other sites such as Sorted, where the visitor can be confident that the advice given is from expert and – importantly – independent sources.

It is also being well supported with RightLight Brand advertising campaign on television and featuring in news and magazine style programmes on TV and Radio.
