 		 Earthmate was established as the retail subsidiary of Litetronics International, Inc. in 2007.  Recognizing the need for a lighting brand to take a leadership position and address the growing environmental concerns of U.S. consumers, Earthmate was the first – and only – lighting company to offer ultra low mercury CFLs and package its entire energy efficient compact fluorescent lamp line in 100% post consumer recycled cardboard that is printed with soy-based inks. The Earthmate brand’s energy saving, eco-sensitive CFL light bulbs are designed to reduce electricity consumption, help reduce greenhouse gases, and fight global warming.
