Phase out of Halopin 75W lamps

As the rest of the world is embracing the need for the global phase-out of inefficient lighting we at OSRAM, one of the largest manufacturers of lamps in the world, need to streamline our offering to conform to the varying legislations throughout the world.

The EU Directive “DIM1” is targeting non-directional household lamps which will have an immediate consequence on our HALOPIN range.

To that end we must inform all our customers that as of JUNE 2009, Mains Voltage HALOPIN 75W Halogen lamp in clear and frosted will be discontinued. The affected lamps are listed below for your further consideration.

Halopin 75W

There will be a newly developed HALOPIN 60W ECO lamp in 60W clear with G9 base.

We want to take this opportunity to recommend that customers should consider change over of the 75W Halopin lamps to the new HALOPIN 60W ECO lamp which will be available from JULY 2009.
