Standard, Signify, Keystone Technologies, Olympia Lighting, and Gripple took home top honours at the National Association of Innovative Lighting Distributors’ 2019 Product Sprint Awards.

NAILD’s Product Sprint awards honour lighting manufacturers’ products in five categories. Exhibitors showcased their most innovative products during the recent NAILD Innovation 2019 event in Reno, NV. NAILD’s distributor members voted the winners of the prestigious awards.

Two of NAILD’s newest members, Standard and Olympia Lighting, took top honours in their respective categories. A solar LED area light from Olympia Lighting was named the best out of 10 competitors in the hotly contested Best Luminaire category and a dual LED from Standard Products was named Best Control. Keystone’s LED SmartPort earned “Best Lamp” and voters also named it “Best Overall” at the conference, continuing the company’s four-year streak of top honors.
