RIVERSIDE, NJ - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Energy (DOE) have named Sea Gull Lighting Products, Inc. as an ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year for its outstanding contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by making and promoting energy-efficient products. Sea Gull Lighting's accomplishments will be recognized at an awards ceremony in Washington, D.C. on March 2, 2004

Sea Gull Lighting, a charter partner in the program since 1992, is being honored for their leadership in manufacturing and marketing lighting products that earn the ENERGY STAR, the mark of environmental protection through energy efficiency. Through its commitment to product development and market transformation, Sea Gull Lighting has taken a leadership role in bringing to market "fashion-forward" decorative and functional lighting products for every room of a home.

By choosing ENERGY STAR qualified products, the typical household can save up to 30 percent on their energy bills, or about $400 a year. The company promotes these important savings and environmental issues throughout the country through a dedicated team of sales associates, electrical wholesale distributors, lighting showrooms, and building industry professionals. In 2002 alone Americans, with the help of Sea Gull Lighting and ENERGY STAR, saved enough energy to power 15 million homes and reduce air pollution equivalent to that of 15 million cars -- all while saving consumers $7 billion.

"Sea Gull Lighting is proud to be an ENERGY STAR partner," said Jeffrey Beiter, Director of Business Development, Energy Efficient Products. "The foundation of our 85-year old company has been built around being able to offer our customers the newest products with all the latest features. ENERGY STAR qualified products have all the latest features, save money on utility bills and are good for the environment. For our customers ENERGY STAR is a win-win."

The Partner of the Year Award is given to manufacturers and retailers that successfully promote and deliver ENERGY STAR qualified products, saving consumers money and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Award winners are selected from thousands of organizations that participate in the ENERGY STAR program.

"Partners like Sea Gull Lighting exemplify the success of ENERGY STAR," said Kathleen Hogan, director of EPA's Climate Protection Partnerships Division. "By offering the latest and greatest products that are also energy efficient the consumer wins and so does the environment. Sea Gull Lighting's products show that you really can have it all - features and energy savings."
