In order to effectively promote high quality, high efficiency LED lighting products, involving providing accurate product information as purchase base for customers, the Next Generation Lighting Industry Alliance under the US Department of Energy launched the SSL Quality Advocates program, requiring industry players to indicate clearly and accurately important specifications of solid state lighting products on the Lighting Facts label.

Apart from the manufacturer and product name, five significant product specifications covering lumens, efficacy, watts, correlated color temperature (CCT) and color rendering index (CRI) must also be explicitly disclosed on the Lighting Facts label.

Luminaire manufacturers who take the SSL Quality Advocates pledge can print the Lighting Facts label on the product box as purchase base for customers.
