DESCRIPTION

The accord(TM) redefines fluorescent lighting by improving on aesthetics,

comfort and energy savings. The accord(TM) provides the right amount of

light while eliminating surface shadows commonly found in parabolics.

significant energy savings.

The accord(TM) is the ideal solution for offices, schools, hospitals, retail and

other applications.
