Solar AdTek, the leading developer and supplier of innovative solar powered and LED lighting systems for outdoor advertising, has officially opened its new office in Milan. This is a significant development for the Irish company who has recently partnered with Clear Channel Italia, the leading Outdoor Advertising company in Italy, in upgrading the lighting in its advertising displays in Milano and Padova.
Clear Channel Italia partnered with Solar AdTek to assist in significantly reducing their carbon footprint, energy and maintenance costs. In addition, the new Smart LED lighting system is easy to install, with a long life of 50,000 hours and provides full coverage and uniform illumination in advertising light boxes

Almost 600 advertising displays have been converted to Solar AdTek’s LED lighting. This upgrade has many benefits, including: energy savings of 357,495 kilowatts annually; carbon savings of 192 tonnes annually; reduced carbon emissions by 80%; zero maintenance costs; and vibrant uniform lighting.
