Sean Tegart, President and CEO of BIOS believes having a third-party validation through DLC benefits the market as a whole.

“BIOS strongly supports DLC and the service it is providing to the industry.  We are proud to offer a full portfolio of DLC listed products so growers are able to have the best data available when making lighting decisions.” According to Mr. Tegart, there are several lighting manufacturers who may be disingenuous in how they present their performance data.  “With a DLC listing, a grower can have confidence the data they are being given is what they will see in their facility” he says.
