    Report Coverage

    This report focuses on the manufacture of electric lamps and lighting equipment in South Africa, including information on the state of the industry and the factors that influence it. There are profiles of 22 companies including electrical and lighting group ARB Holdings, which owns Eurolux and which bought lighting distributor Radiant in 2019. Other profiles include major electrical equipment supplier Actom, Signify (previously Philips) and Beka Schréder, which exports across Africa.

    Manufacture of Electric Lamps and Lighting Equipment

    Sales in the electric lamp and lighting equipment industry have been in decline mainly due to lack of economic growth and infrastructure spending and reduced demand from Eskom as a result of its financial problems. Electricity costs have tripled in the past decade and compact fluorescent lamps have in recent years played a key role in energy efficiency campaigns.

    Slow Pace of Change

    While the rest of the world has made the move to new technology and LED lighting, most South Africans continue to use old fluorescent lamp technology, losing out on the energy saving, environmental and cost saving benefits of LEDs. Factors preventing the uptake of LED include installation and replacement costs and reluctance of consumers to change. However, this does open up replacement opportunities for local companies, as does solar lighting.

    Regulatory Issues

    There are basic safety and performance regulations for older lighting technologies, compact fluorescent lamps and incandescent lamps, but there are no safety or performance standards for LEDs, which reduce energy and maintenance costs compared to compact fluorescent lamps. The industry has appealed to government to regulate and protect consumers from cheap inferior and potentially dangerous products that are imported mostly from Asia.

    Report Coverage

    The Manufacture of Electric Lamps and Lighting Equipment describes the industry in South Africa, highlights current conditions and discusses the factors influencing the success of the sector. Twenty-four industry players are profiled, including ACTOM, the largest manufacturer and distributor of electro-mechanical equipment in Africa which has 43 operating units, 44 production, service and repair facilities and 40 distribution outlets throughout Southern Africa. Also profiled are Radiant Lighting, BEKA Schréder, Phillips South Africa and Osram, large lighting manufacturers and suppliers of local and imported products.

    The Manufacture of Electric Lamps and Lighting Equipment

    This report focuses on the manufacture of electric lamps and lighting equipment in South Africa, a sector that is struggling to compete with cheaper imported products. The value of the local sector including imports is estimated at R6bn per annum.

    Opportunities and Concerns

    South Africa’s continued energy constraints, the increasing cost of electricity as well as the country’s energy policy which states that by 2016 all conventional light bulbs must be replaced by energy-efficient ones, is driving growth for energy-efficient products. This is borne out by the increase in sales of LED, solar and rechargeable lights reported by local manufacturers and importers. However, there are concerns that if effective regulatory mechanisms are not introduced and enforced, then cheaper imported products will flood the market and pose a serious threat to continued local manufacture. Inadequate testing and sampling of imported products has also resulted in the availability of sub-standard and unsafe LEDs and lighting components.
