Do you believe it? At Toshiba, we do.
We are convinced that economy compliments ecology and that each corporation is responsible for the economical, social and environmental issues of its products.
One of many examples: after years of hard work, our LEDs use up to 80 % less energy than incandescent lamps.
Environment is our priority.
Welcome to Toshiba.
Lighting increases a sense of security and well being
Light is malleable and can therefore be varied according to our needs and our environment. Light enables us to plan by being a solution in itself for even the most tailored requirements – whether traditional or innovative, practical or emotional. Toshiba has been producing lighting for over 120 years. With our wide range of products, we offer the optimal solution for perfect light. Our LED lamps and luminaires meet the highest standards thanks to their efficiency and functionality as well as their outstanding aesthetics.
A 125 year history of success
In 1875 Hisashige Tanaka founded the later renamed Shibaura Engineering Works. In 1939 it merged with Tokyo Electric Company and it became the current Toshiba. The year after that it produced the first in Japan fluorescent lamp.
In 2007 the E-CORE LED Downlights are produced – with lifespan over 40 000 hours. LED becomes a universal means of lighting. In 2009 LED enters a new market by becoming compliant with classical lamps. In March 2010 the production of incandescent light bulbs is officially terminated. In 2014 Toshiba Lighting takes accent illumination one step further: the NEOACCENT Shoplights integrate perfectly into different indoor architecture and enable an optimized heat management.
