Note: This program is for lighting product manufacturers, not builders who use the products in their projects.
Architectural Lighting invites you to forward new product releases for editorial consideration on our website archlighting.com and in our sister publication Architect’s April 2019 issue, which is distributed at Lightfair and other industry related trade shows. Luminaires, light sources, and lighting products, released after June 2018, qualify for editorial consideration.
The AL Annual Product Call is a two-step process via a separate web portal: https://alproductcall.secure-platform.com/a.
Step One: Complete online registration form and make payment.
(Note: Once Step 1 is complete, you cannot go back and make changes to registration form.)
Step Two: After registration and payment are complete, materials are uploaded.
(Note: You can go back and make changes to material uploads prior to final submit.)
The AL Annual Product Call is setup on a digital platform that requires the use of either Chrome or Firefox. You must use Chrome or Firefox as your browser when registering and uploading materials. Other browsers will not allow you to complete these processes correctly.
