The Sripuram Trust, formed by different textile stakeholders, has started grouping together apparel units in the Tirupur cluster to purchase LED (light emitting diode) bulbs under a consortium approach in order to reduce energy consumption and increase the profit margins.
Initially, it has planned that a total of one lakh tube lights would be replaced with LED lamps, said T.R. Vijayakumar, coordinator of Sripuram Trust.
Around five lakh tube lights are being used by the textile units in Tirupur cluster in total on the production floor and on the campus of the units, he added.
