Signify’s North American lighting business raises product prices

With the changes in global trade policies in 2026 and the continued pressure on the raw material supply chain, the LED lighting industry is ushering in a new round of price adjustment.

Recently, foreign media reported that Signify’s Cooper Lighting Solutions and Genlyte Solutions have successively issued price adjustment notices to cope with increasingly severe cost challenges.

Cooper Lighting: Implementing targeted price increases on March 30

On March 2, Cooper Lighting issued a formal price adjustment notice to its agency partners. This price adjustment plan will officially take effect on March 30, 2026, when the prices of selected lighting and control product lines will be increased.

According to the company’s announcement, this price adjustment is due to the combined effect of multiple realistic cost pressures. Cooper Lighting pointed out that the current cost of metal raw materials such as aluminum, copper, and steel continues to rise, while energy, labor, supply chain and freight costs are also at high levels.

In addition, increased regulatory compliance costs and the depreciation of the U.S. dollar have further pushed up product costs throughout the North American lighting industry. Cooper Lighting specifically mentioned that although it has taken note of the recent North American Supreme Court ruling and the implementation of the 10% global tariff, this pricing action is based on the cost increase that has been realized so far, rather than speculation on future policies.

In terms of specific business arrangements, all existing quotations from Cooper Lighting will expire on March 27, 2026, and subsequent projects will need to be re-quoted according to the new price guidelines.

All orders placed after 8:00 pm EST on March 27, 2026, or orders requiring shipment on a future date, will be billed at the new price. Cooper Lighting's MarketPro inventory products will not increase in price during this adjustment.

According to data, Cooper Lighting is an important North American professional lighting business unit of Signify. The company's products cover professional lighting, lighting control and intelligent interconnected lighting, and its applications cover commercial, residential, industrial and outdoor lighting applications.

Genlyte Solutions: Increase product prices starting from April 1

According to foreign media reports, Genlyte Solutions, a subsidiary of Signify, also announced that it will increase the prices of some lighting products, which will officially take effect on April 1, 2026. Genlyte Solutions stated that the company has been continuously monitoring market changes and taking necessary actions to minimize the impact of rising costs.

According to information, Genlyte Solutions is a business unit of Signify that focuses on the North American commercial lighting market. The company focuses on providing high-quality, innovative lighting solutions for commercial, industrial, and residential applications. Genlyte Solutions owns multiple lighting brands, including high-end commercial lighting Lightolier, commercial/industrial lighting Day-Brite, medical lighting Alkco, landscape lighting Hadco, etc.

Signify: The Chinese market announced a price increase, with the highest increase reaching 50%
