KLI is known as the premiere lighting manufacturer’s representative in Hawaii since 1976.  In general, we promote our lighting manufacturers through Architects, Engineers and Designers and distribute through wholesale electrical houses.

 

KLI was originally incorporated in 1976 under the name KLOPFENSTEIN’S and operated out of a house in Hawaii Kai.  In December of 1987 we moved our operations into our present location on Nuuanu Ave in Downtown Honolulu.  In 1997 we reincorporated as KLOPFENSTEIN’S LIGHTING INC  (KLI).

 

Our primary purpose is to provide the best product for your application with efficient service for all your needs.

A typical retail store spends 67% of its energy bill on electricity, with most of it going to lighting and HVAC. Lights and aesthetics are a great way for our coffee shops and hardware stores to compete for our attention and keep us browsing.You can read about it in this study by the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency for you non

acronym-savvy readers). The EPA is a great place to go for reports on building energy use. Another resource is our website! You can download things like Application Guides and

Case Studies – all on lighting controls.

So now that you know, what can you do about it? The good news is that there are lots of solutions

out there for retailers to reduce their energy consumption without sacrificing customer appeal. In fact, being a green retailer is highly marketable!

Though one can save energy by installing more efficient lights, the most energy is saved when they are turned off. The proven control strategies that Lighting Control & Design has implemented successfully for many clients, is explained in our Application Guides. We have everything you need to streamline your lighting, including a number of solutions for energy code compliance. You can also contact our engineers (no cost!) for specific questions. Don’t be shy – we’re here to help.
