The 2011 LIGHTFAIRINTERNATIONAL 2011 was held at the Philadelphia Convention and Exhibition Center from May 17th to 19th.

Another highlight of the show is VENTURELighting's infrared-reflective film-coated halogen lamp, which has a luminous efficacy of 38 lm/w and a lifespan of 4,000 hours, making it a scientific advancement.

Since the United States will ban the sale of incandescent lamps of more than 100w in 2012, halogen lamps have further market opportunities. OSRAMSYLVANIA launched their halogen lamp instead of incandescent and other plans, as follows:

In 2012, a 72W halogen lamp was used instead of a 100W incandescent lamp; in 2013, a 53W halogen lamp was used instead of a 75W incandescent lamp; in 2014, a 43W halogen lamp was used instead of a 60W incandescent lamp; a 29W halogen lamp was used instead of a 40W incandescent lamp; these halogen lamps replaced incandescent lamps. The lamp is expected to save 30% of electricity.
