Axis Technologies Group, Inc. (Pink Sheets:AXTG) announced that they are collaborating with Texas Fluorescents (www.texasfluorescents.com to develop and market an energy-efficient and affordable fluorescent fixture targeted to meet the needs of school facilities. Utilizing the Axis ballast technology, these fixtures will have built-in dimming and daylight harvesting capabilities without the added expense of installing an external control system. Most schools spend more on energy utilities annually than on classroom supplies. The installation of more efficient equipment and fixtures may reduce the energy expense of a school facility by an average of 20% annually.
"Most schools are receiving mandates to reduce energy usage, yet they have limited budgets-- the Axis Ballast/Texas Fluorescents combination should have broad appeal in situations like these," said Mark Thorpe, national sales manager to fixture manufacturers for Axis Technologies.
