First, Market

Market : As Europeans’ awareness of environmental protection and energy saving is more mature and higher acceptance of the use of environmentally friendly products particularly the LED light including the outdoor LED flood light and other commercial LED lights or industrial and household LED lights , coupled with that the earliest laws phasing out incandescent proposed by the EU has begun to implement , governments have launched the subsidy programs (the subsidies amount for 30% to 55% of the product price ) in the application fields of energy-saving lamps and outdoor LED flood light and other LED lamps , so the rate of popularize and promote the LED lighting applications in European market is higher in the global arena, there are currently large quantities of 10W LED bulbs and spots light such as outdoor LED flood light and the following categories of products which have started sold in the number of supermarkets in major European countries , the European lighting giant Philips and Osram has unveiled its large-scale application of products on the Frankfurt lighting Fair 2010~2013 , and began the construction and promotion of market channels .

Technology: Due to the benefits and the starting point of different countries when EU countries development of uniform standards , resulting in a lot of systems and rules promulgated is more sluggish , the current European -related market access standards and technical barriers are relatively loose , the current technology draft amendments CE at respect for the solid state light source(SSL) especially the outdoor LED flood light and other power public LED lights is still mostly referring to some of the technical requirements of traditional sources, which did not have a greater change.

Enterprise : Philips and Osram as European traditional lighting giant had already invested heavily studying LED lighting -based technology at the beginning of the 2000, OSRAM has been in a leading edge on white LED with a fluorescent material , but Osram has been a big seller on packaged white light beads in the Indonesia market recently and focused on the promotion of interior light bulb and outdoor LED flood light and other public LED lighting and integrated LED lamp module; while Philips with its capital strong advantage first acquisition of U.S. lumileds companies and other companies having the advantages on technological solutions in LED applications, after obtaining the core technology and related patents and looking for high quality mining and manufacturing enterprises to help him do OEM production in China mainland market, Philips use the extremely stringent standards and huge orders as bait to maximize the compression of profits of foundry business.

Alternative Analysis: the promotion of LED lighting field including the outdoor LED flood light and other commercial LED lights or industrial and household LED lighting products is not in the European market Philips and Osram focus on any more, which is taking advantage of foundry companies specializing in manufacturing outdoor LED flood light and other finished and related LED lighting products in mainland China to enter the Asian market now and using Chinese accumulated experience in the application technologies to earn huge profits for them.Browsing http://www.lead-lighting.com/products/sid53-1.htm for more information about the outdoor LED flood light.
