We were delighted to join our Official U.S. Partner, Brandon Industries, at the IES Street & Area Lighting Conference (SALC) 2026 in Phoenix, sharing our latest lighting innovations with the U.S. outdoor lighting community.
Taking place at the Sheraton Phoenix Downtown from 8 to 11 November, C.U. Phosco Managing Director Philip Marques, Export Manager Andy Southgate and Technical Manager Paul Carter travelled to Arizona to join the Brandon Industries team.
INTRODUCING OUR PARTNERSHIP TO THE U.S MARKET
Our goal in the U.S. is simple: to support American utilities, municipalities and transportation networks with lighting they can rely on for decades. SALC is the premier event for U.S. outdoor lighting, attracting attendees from utilities, municipalities, departments of transportation, engineering firms, researchers and manufacturers across the country and beyond.
SALC 2026 gave us the chance to meet the people who specify, buy and maintain street and area lighting, and to hear first-hand what matters to them.
BRANDON INDUSTRIES: A PARTNER THAT SHARES OUR VALUES
We chose to enter the U.S. market with Brandon Industries because we share the same values. Like C.U. Phosco, Brandon Industries is a family business. Based in McKinney, Texas, the team have an outstanding commitment to quality, standing behind its products and thinking long term; an ethos that we share.
Working side by side on the stand, that shared approach came through in every conversation. Brandon Industries brings local presence and customer relationships; we bring the technical knowledge and manufacturing strength to back them up.
SHARING OUR LATEST INNOVATIONS
Visitors to the joint stand explored the C.U. Phosco portfolio that Brandon Industries now represents nationwide:
- Area and roadway lighting
- High mast lighting and lowering devices
- Telecommunications infrastructure products
The partnership is already delivering results. At Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, we supplied 42 FL830 LED floodlights for Cargo Hard Stand No. 5, cutting lighting energy use by around 60% compared with the previous system.
Thank you to Brandon Industries for hosting us, and to IES for another excellent conference. Read more about our partnership with Brandon Industries.
