What makes lighting sustainable?

Sustainable lighting combines a fixture built to last decades — repairable, with replaceable bulb holders — with an efficient light source. The most wasteful lamps are disposable integrated fixtures that have to be replaced when the LED dies. Anglepoise and Heller fixtures are designed to be re-lamped, not replaced.

What certifications should I look for in lighting?

B Corp certification on the brand (Anglepoise and Tala both hold it), ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) on the factory, Energy Star on LED bulbs, and FSC certification on any wood components.

Which brands does Comosum carry for lighting?

Anglepoise (B Corp British task lighting since 1935), Tala (B Corp British LED-focused brand), Petite Friture (French design house, Vertigo pendant), Heller (Made in NY, Vignelli designs), and Fermob (French outdoor lighting, ISO 14001).

Are these fixtures LED-compatible and energy-efficient?

Yes. Every fixture in the collection accepts standard LED bulbs (E26, E12, GU10, or G9 sockets depending on the lamp), and Tala's range includes integrated LED drivers tuned for color quality and lifespan. Portable models from Petite Friture and Fermob use rechargeable lithium batteries.

Do these ship from a US warehouse?

All Comosum orders ship from a US warehouse with standard freight options nationwide. Trade pricing is available for interior designers, architects, and commercial accounts.
