For years, Harvey Norman had the recurring burden of replacing the disposable batteries in old-tech exit signs, or the signs themselves. Each discarded sign added to the growing e-waste problem, while the ongoing expenses related to installing and maintaining expensive monitoring systems only compounded the issue.

Recognising the financial and environmental implications, Harvey Norman took a decisive step towards change by adopting Smarterlite’s Environmental Exit Sign technology. This change was particularly evident in major homemaker centres situated in Sydney and Melbourne, where Harvey Norman embraced Smarterlite’s Hyperion Hybrid Exit Signs. This shift empowered their electrical contractors to seamlessly transition from the outdated electric-battery technology to Smarterlite’s innovative, battery-free, and energy-efficient solution. The best part? Harvey Norman will achieve a $685,000 in savings and an extraordinary 81% reduction in electricity usage from making the switch!
