As the global horticultural LED market enters a new phase in 2026, characterized by both cost pressure and technological upgrades, system-level energy efficiency and dynamic spectral control are becoming key priorities. As a leading player in LED innovation - Cree LED continues to gain strong recognition from horticultural lighting brands through its dual-track strategy in high-power ceramic LEDs and cost-effective mid-power solutions. Recently, TrendForce interviewed Morgan Meadows Davis, Product Manager at Cree LED, to share the company’s 2025–2026 market strategy, product technology roadmap, and outlook for the horticultural lighting industry.

Though LED lighting is widely used for daily illumination, it is still quite essential to have the economic benefits and animal-friendly conditions for agricultural lighting applications. Some special requirements such as wavelength (color) selection or application without flicker need to be considered for lighting use. Therefore, MEAN WELL has developed a constant voltage output and flicker-free dimming power supply for special lighting fixtures used in the poultry lighting, which is provided to global customers in a standard power supply format. Due to the varying sizes...

Vietnamese scientists are trying to create LED lamp products which have the light spectrum suitable with every kind of plant, which can help save electricity, churn out clean and off-season products. According to Dr Phan Hong Khoi, Managing Director of the high-efficiency public lighting project in Vietnam, LED is a special type of semiconductor diode which can generate a narrow spectrum, discrete light when excited. LED lamps can create different colors, depending on the semiconductor materials used and operating conditions. With LED lamps, scientists use two bea...
