Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions Supports Rayonled in Creating Innovative and Energy-Efficient Lighting Products
July 11, 2019
RayonLed, newly established in Canada and recognized as a distributor of high-quality LED bulbs and fixtures, will acquire two production lines in order to become a manufacturer of LED lighting systems. To help it purchase manufacturing equipment, this Brossard company received a repayable contribution of $300,000 from Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions. With this financial assistance, the company will transition from its distribution-based business model to become a manufacturer of smart LED lighting. As part of this transformation, RayonLed is also set to open a highly automated production plant that will incorporate digital technologies.
The funding was announced today by Alexandra Mendès, Member of Parliament for Brossard‒Saint-Lambert. More specifically, the Government of Canada’s assistance helped RayonLed purchase the equipment required to manufacture large-scale lighting systems and fixtures for the commercial, industrial and institutional sectors.
As a result of this transition, RayonLed Lighting Systems will become a manufacturer of heavy duty industrial LED street lighting, hydroponic lighting, and plant ceiling lighting fixtures that are cUL-certified, ensuring a high level of quality, and CSA-certified, a North American certification recognizing the safety and eco-friendliness of products.
The Government of Canada is committed to supporting innovative Canadian businesses. A driving force of the economy, innovation is the key to success because it generates growth that benefits both businesses and communities. That is why we are committed to ensuring that businesses have access to adequate resources to create and market innovative products.
