Where Are Halco LED Flat Panels Manufactured? A 90519 and 90520 Origin Audit
Halco’s current flat-panel documentation creates an unusual procurement problem. Halco specification identifies the FPL and FPLCR flat-panel families as TAA compliant. A major U.S. distributor lists model 90519 as made in Cambodia. That is a plausible TAA-designated origin. However, two distributor pages give different origins for model 90520: one says China, while another uses the […]
Where Are Litetronics LED Flat Panels Manufactured? A PST-Series Supply-Chain Audit
The most accurate answer is not simply “China” or “the United States.” Litetronics is an established American lighting company headquartered in Bedford Park, Illinois. However, public trade records show that the company imports lighting products and components from several countries, including China and Vietnam. A 2025 shipment record specifically identified LED light panels supplied from […]
Where Are NICOR Lighting LED Flat Panels Manufactured? A TAA Model Audit
Last reviewed: August 15, 2026 NICOR provides a clearer answer about government procurement eligibility than about factory location. The company publicly lists its TGLS3 backlit troffer as TAA compliant. However, the reviewed NICOR pages do not identify the specific country where the fixture is manufactured. That distinction matters. “TAA compliant” does not automatically mean “Made […]
Where Are SATCO NUVO LED Flat Panels Manufactured?
SATCO NUVO LED panel records do not point to one manufacturing country. Older flat-panel models have been identified as Chinese-origin. Certain R1 backlit models have been listed as Vietnamese-origin. A current 2026 panel SKU appears as Mexican-origin in distributor databases, while an NSF certification record links the same model to a facility in Zhejiang, China. […]
Where Are GE Current LED Flat Panels Manufactured?
A buyer may find “GE Current” on an old submittal, “Columbia Lighting” on the fixture schedule and “Current” on the latest specification sheet. That does not necessarily mean three different manufacturers. Current’s commercial-lighting portfolio combines legacy GE operations with brands acquired from Hubbell Lighting. Public distributor records identify several Columbia CFP flat panels as Chinese-origin, […]
Where Are SYLVANIA LED Flat Panels Manufactured?
The SYLVANIA name tells you which brand is printed on the fixture. It does not tell you where the LED panel was manufactured. In North America, SYLVANIA general-lighting products are sold by LEDVANCE. LEDVANCE is owned by Chinese lighting manufacturer MLS Co., Ltd. Yet Chinese ownership does not automatically make every SYLVANIA panel Chinese-origin. For […]
Where Are Keystone LED Flat Panels Manufactured: China, Vietnam or a TAA Country?
Keystone Technologies is an American lighting company. Its LED flat panels, however, do not have one universal country of origin. Public product records show three different sourcing paths: All three statements can be true. For distributors and project buyers, Keystone is a useful example of why brand nationality should never replace SKU-level origin verification. One […]
Where Are TCP LED Flat Panels Manufactured?
TCP is based in Ohio and says it assembles lighting products in US facilities. Does that mean every TCP LED flat panel is made in the USA? No. A US headquarters, domestic assembly capability and the legal country of origin are three different facts. Public information indicates that TCP’s sourcing may vary by product and […]
Where Are MaxLite FlatMax LED Flat Panels Manufactured?
MaxLite’s FlatMax tells buyers more about product configuration than factory location. That distinction matters. Public MaxLite information does not support assigning one manufacturing country to every FlatMax LED panel. Some G5 documents separate standard sourcing from TAA-country sourcing, but they do not publicly name the exact country behind every SKU. For distributors, contractors and private-label […]
