Clear-Lite Holdings, Inc. (“ClearLite”) (OTCBB: CLRH), a leading innovator of eco-friendly lighting, today announced that it will be debuting several new product lines during the International Home & Housewares Show from March 14-16 in Chicago, IL.
While most consumers know that compact fluorescent lamps (CFL’s) offer energy savings of up to 75% and last up to 13 times longer than comparable incandescent bulbs, many are unaware that CFL bulbs can also contain liquid mercury, which poses a potential safety risk to both humans and pets if a bulb is broken in the home.
In response to safety concerns, ClearLite is introducing its new ArmorLite™ bulbs, A Safer CFL™, which contain no liquid mercury and instead use amalgam, an alloy of mercury with other metals in a solid form. To further enhance the safety of the bulbs, ClearLite’s ArmorLite also contains a Safety ECO Coating, which helps provide an added barrier between you and the toxins inside if broken by helping to capture both the broken glass and the mercury. Thanks to this safety coating, an independent third-party testing company found that the level of mercury was below the levels that the testing equipment was even able to detect, yet these bulbs still offer superior lighting.
In addition to showcasing the ArmorLite™, A Safer CFL™, ClearLite’s CEO and Founder, Thomas Irvine, will also be exhibiting several of the Company’s new Full-Spectrum Reading Lamps, which help provide a brighter, longer-lasting and more natural light than many others currently available on the market. These bulbs are also Energy Star Qualified and made to RoHS standards (Reduction of Hazardous Substances).
The International Home & Housewares Show will also mark the launch of ClearLite’s newest product line, True Reflections™ Hi-REZ Cosmetic Mirror. True Reflections™ is the first Hi-Rez cosmetics mirror in the industry with OPTICOLOR Technology® that is designed to help consumers see a brighter, more natural reflection of themselves and offers three distinct settings for various levels of light sources.
