How can you increase plant density without sacrificing light uniformity?

XLamp® Horizon Horticulture LEDs from Cree LED are engineered with two innovative beam angles that allow luminaires to be mounted up to 40% closer to the plant canopy while delivering up to 10% higher light levels with better uniformity than standard LEDs. This means more plants can be grown in a rack footprint for higher yields and lower energy costs. Industry-leading sulfur and corrosion resistance ensures long-term LED reliability in demanding greenhouse environments.

Looking to achieve longer throw or a better beam in flashlights and portable lighting applications?

Introducing the new XLamp® XFL PNA, MNA and SNA LEDs – purpose-built by Cree LED for flashlights and portable lighting applications.

Unlike general-purpose LEDs, Cree LED's XFL family is optimized specifically for portable lighting output targets, taking real-world optical and thermal losses into account for more efficient system design and exceptional beam quality.

With a light-emitting surface (LES) up to 90% smaller than competing solutions with similar light output, XFL LEDs enable:
🔦 Longer throw distances
🔦 Cleaner, more uniform beam profiles
🔦 Reduced color variation across the beam
🔦 Greater optical control in compact designs

If you're designing high-performance flashlights, headlamps or other portable lighting products, the XLamp XFL family delivers the intensity, consistency and value to stand out.
