When I heard the words, “biodegradable lighting fixtures,” my curiosity was piqued. To learn more about this, I turned to Benjamin Rapkin, General Manager at Lightly. In this episode of Keepin’ The Lights On, I learn about the current state of sustainable building materials. We discuss what lighting customers, designers, and manufacturers can do to move the needle to more sustainable products. Lastly, we learn lessons Lightly learned during the creation of their sustainable biodegradable lighting line.
