Published Date: 2025-04-27

According to YH Research's LED Tube Market Development Trend Analysis, this report provides LED Tube market scenario, definitions, classifications, applications and industry chain structure, also discusses development policies and plans as well as manufacturing processes and cost structures, analyzes the LED Tube market development status and future market trends. The LED Tube market is also analyzed from the angles of production and consumption, to identify the top producing regions, the top consuming regions, and the top manufacturers of LED Tube market.

LED tube generally refers to light-emitting diode, is a commonly used light-emitting device, through the compound of electrons and holes to release energy to emit light, it is widely used in the field of lighting. It can efficiently convert electrical energy into light energy, and has a wide range of uses in modern society, such as lighting, flat panel display, medical devices and so on.

With the global emphasis on energy saving and environmental protection, LED lamps have received widespread attention because of their energy efficient, long life and other advantages. Governments and enterprises have increased investment in LED lighting, driving the rapid development of the LED tube market. 2024 global LED tube market size of 6.7 billion U.S. dollars, is expected to 2029 LED tube market size will increase to 18 billion U.S. dollars.

Segmented by product type, the market share of T8 LED lamps accounted for 37% in 2024, and T8 LED lamps occupy a dominant position. Segmented by end-user, the market share of commercial segment accounted for 33% in 2024, and the commercial field is the main application scenario of LED lamps, including shopping centers, restaurants, clubs and other places.

In 2024, the LED lamp market presents obvious product type centralization and application scene specialization characteristics, T8 LED lamp and commercial field become the core growth engine, the following is the specific analysis:

First, product type segmentation: T8 LED tube dominance of technology and market logic
Technical suitability
Size advantage: T8 tube (diameter 26mm) to adapt to the traditional fluorescent lamp bracket, without the need for transformation can be directly replaced to reduce the cost of transformation of commercial premises.
Energy efficiency breakthrough: mainstream T8 LED lamp luminous efficacy of 130-150lm/W, compared with the traditional T8 fluorescent lamps to enhance more than 50%, single-tube annual power savings of more than 100 degrees.
Life extension: the average life expectancy of more than 50,000 hours, 3 times longer than fluorescent lamps, reducing the frequency of maintenance in commercial premises.
Driven by market demand
Commercial scene adaptation: shopping centers, restaurants and other places have a high demand for uniform lighting, T8 LED lamps can provide 180 ° wide-angle light, to meet the high shelves, tables and other vertical surface lighting.
Policy promotion: more than 60 countries around the world to implement the incandescent lamp phase-out plan, China's “Green Lighting Project” for T8 LED tube subsidies up to 30% of the purchase price.
Cost reduction: China's industrial chain maturity to promote T8 LED lamp unit price down to 1.5-3 U.S. dollars, down 40% from 2019, accelerate the replacement process.

Second, end-user segmentation: the deep reasons why the commercial sector has become a core growth pole
Rigid demand for commercial lighting scenes
High hours of use: the average daily lighting in shopping centers is 14 hours, restaurants up to 12 hours, LED lamps have significant energy-saving benefits.
Brand display demand: high-end commercial places on the color rendering index (Ra) requirements of more than 90, T8 LED lamps can accurately restore the color of goods, enhance the consumer experience.
Intelligent control compatibility: Support 0-10V/DALI dimming, seamlessly connect with commercial intelligent lighting system to realize scenario lighting (e.g. restaurant warm light, retail cold light).
Differences in market segment penetration
Shopping center: 35% of the commercial sector, the atrium high-ceilinged area with high light efficiency T8 lamps, shelf area with anti-glare accessories, energy consumption reduced by 60%.
Dining and entertainment: 28%, clubs and bars use RGB color-tuning T8 lamps to support dynamic light and shadow effects, and increase the unit price by 15%-20%.
Office commercial: 22%, open office area using high color rendering T8 lamps, staff visual fatigue reduced by 40%, work efficiency.
Regional market differentiation
Asia-Pacific market: China, India commercial transformation demand is strong, T8 LED lamps in the commercial field penetration rate of over 65%.
Europe and the United States market: the stock of commercial buildings energy-saving transformation to promote demand, North America's commercial sector accounted for 38%, Europe due to the historical building protection policy, the replacement of a slightly slower pace.

Third, the future trend: technology iteration and scene deepening dual-wheel drive
Product upgrade direction
Ultra-thin: Thickness compressed from 28mm to 22mm, adapting to more narrow installation space.
Healthy lighting: popularization of full-spectrum T8 lamps, reduction of blue light hazards (RG0 level), and alleviation of visual fatigue in commercial premises.
Internet of Things integration: built-in sensors to realize people come to light, people go to dark, commercial places to reduce energy consumption by 20%.
Application Scenario Expansion
New retail: unmanned supermarkets and smart shelves adopt T8 lamps + camera linkage to realize heat map analysis of passenger flow.
Cultural tourism business: theme parks, immersive theaters using dynamic light and shadow T8 lamps, single project customization demand increased by 30% annually.
Emergency lighting: high protection level (IP67) T8 lamps in underground commercial space penetration rate increased to meet the fire mandatory specifications.
Competition pattern evolution
Monopoly of head enterprises: Philips, Osram and other companies occupy the high-end market in the commercial sector, product premium of more than 50%.
The rise of regional brands: China's Mulimori, Foshan Lighting and other companies through the cost-effective advantage, in Southeast Asia, the Middle East commercial market share of more than 25%.
Intensified cross-border competition: Huawei, millet and other IoT companies launched intelligent T8 lamps, competing for commercial lighting control entrance.

With the rise of consumer demand for personalization, LED lamps will be personalized and customized. Consumers can choose different lamp styles, colors, brightness and functions according to their own preferences and needs.LED lamp manufacturers will provide more diversified products and services to meet the lighting needs of specific places and uses.
