Westinghouse Lighting Corporation announces
its acquisition of Radiant Lamp Company from Philips
Lighting Company, the U.S.-based lighting division
of Royal Philips Electronics Radiant Lamp Company
offers an exclusive line of differentiated light
bulbs to service lighting distributors in North
America.
We are delighted to have reached this important
agreement with Philips, says Stan Angelo,
Chairman of Westinghouse Lighting Corporation.
We will employ all of our resources to make
the transition a success and to assist these new
customers in the continued growth of their businesses.
Our new lighting technologies will be a natural
enhancement to the specialized Radiant business
so brilliantly pioneered by Philips.
Under the terms of the agreement, Philips will
continue its strong manufacturing relationship
with Radiant. This assures Radiant customers continuity
of precision manufacturing and quality standards
and ensures a seamless transition for Radiant's
existing customer base. In addition, Westinghouse
is enhancing the product offering with incandescent,
halogen, HID and other energy efficient lamps.
In addition, Radiant will now be serviced through
Westinghouse's four national distribution facilities
and will enjoy the same outstanding service and
operational excellence that is a hallmark of Westinghouse
Lighting.
Philips believes that Westinghouse is the
one company that will best preserve the Radiant
Lamp organization's legacy of service and quality
and is pleased Westinghouse has made this commitment
to us, says E.C. M. Bouts, President and
CEO, Philips Lighting Company.
