(PRLog.Org) – LonMark International (LMI) is experiencing heightened demand from manufacturers to get their controls devices LonMark Certified. The increased demand is a direct result from end-users who request LonMark Certified Products to be used in their systems.

The industry preference for open systems coupled with end-user expectations for greater energy efficiency and lower operational costs has propelled LonMark to being the market leader for product certification. Only LonMark Certified Products, labelled with the LonMark Logo, are certified to meet LonMark Guidelines for interoperability and the freedom to choose the best products from different manufacturers.

With over one million devices utilizing the LON technology, LonMark Certification is rapidly becoming a mainstream business requirement. Lon integrators have installed over 300,000 open systems worldwide. “The overwhelming call for LonMark certified products from end-users is setting an industry benchmark for control devices,” explains Ron Bernstein, Executive Director of LonMark International. “The certification creates a standard of excellence for products and the foundation for an open, interoperable system. Specifiers are requiring LonMark certification of products in their specs to ensure the most robust solutions in the industry.”
