What Is TILS Taipei?
TIL (Taiwan International Lighting Show) is the largest professional lighting and LED technology exhibition in Taiwan, held annually at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center. Organised by the International Trade Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and TAITRA (Taiwan External Trade Development Council), it is the flagship annual event of the Taiwanese LED and lighting industry.
The show covers the complete LED industry chain — from equipment, materials, epitaxy and packaging to lighting applications — with dedicated zones for sapphire and patterned substrates, OLED manufacturing and high-brightness LED technology. It also runs a full program of international seminars, including the Taiwan Solid State Lighting International Symposium, LED Summit Forum and architecture / design / lighting seminars. It is a B2B-handelsevenement: consumenten en bezoekers onder de 18 jaar worden niet toegelaten en ter plaatse vindt geen detailhandel plaats.

Tip
Show dates change every year. Confirm the exact dates, free-entry requirements and seminar program on the official TILS Taipei website voordat u een reis boekt.
Historically the show has drawn hundreds of exhibitors and around 15,000 professional visitors from across Taiwan and the wider Asia-Pacific region, making it the single best place in Asia to see the complete LED supply chain under one roof.
Why the Taiwan / Asia Lighting Market Matters
Taiwan is one of the most important LED ecosystems in the world. Several structural drivers make TILS worth your attention:
LED upstream powerhouse
Taiwan is a global leader in LED epitaxy, packaging and chip technology (epistar, Cree, OSRAM Opto Semiconductors Taiwan, and many more). TILS is the best place to benchmark the very latest LED technology.
Asia-Pacific sourcing hub
From Taipei, buyers source from Taiwan, mainland China, South Korea, Japan and Southeast Asia — a single hub for the entire Asian LED supply chain.
High-end application focus
TILS is strong in smart lighting, automotive lighting, plant-growth lighting, medical lighting and specialty applications — the high-margin segments where technology matters most.
Design & engineering culture
Taiwanese buyers are engineering-driven, technically sophisticated and value quality, reliability and long lifetime over the lowest price. They reward suppliers who can deliver technical documentation and consistency.
Wie moet aanwezig zijn
TILS is most useful if you are:
- LED component and luminaire manufacturers — benchmarking chips, drivers, packaging and thermal solutions from leading Taiwanese suppliers.
- Importeurs en distributeurs — looking for OEM/ODM brands, private-label programs and factory-direct pricing for the Asian and global market.
- Lichtontwerpers en voorschrijvers — learning about new LED technology, smart controls and specialty applications.
- Electrical engineers and R&D managers — understanding the latest LED packaging, optics and thermal management trends.
- Brand owners and product managers — scouting contract manufacturers and benchmarking technology and pricing from Taiwanese and mainland Chinese exhibitors.
Hoe u zich kunt voorbereiden als koper
Walking the show cold wastes days. Before you fly to Taipei:
1. Plan your seminar schedule
The international symposiums and LED Summit Forum are the main reason to attend. Pick the forums that match your spec — packaging, smart lighting, automotive, plant lighting — and register early.
2. Pre-book meetings with suppliers
E-mail de leveranciers die u weken van tevoren wilt zien. Neem monsters, tekeningen, streefhoeveelheden en uw richtprijs mee; de standtijd is beperkt.
3. Compare technical documentation
Taiwanese buyers expect full technical documentation: LM-80 / TM-26 lifetime data, IES photometric files, IEC 62471 photobiological safety reports and LM-79 test reports.
4. Ga na de show direct naar de bron
Merken op de beursvloer scoren doorgaans 30-60%. Dezelfde producten worden meestal gemaakt door Chinese OEM-fabrieken. Maak foto's, onderdeelnummers en catalogi en neem vervolgens rechtstreeks contact op met de fabriek.
Why Source LED Lighting from China (and Why Lightstec Makes Sense for the Asian Market)
Taiwan leads the LED upstream (chips, packaging), but the vast majority of finished LED lighting products are manufactured in mainland China. Working directly with the factory cuts out the middleman and gives you shorter lead times, customisation and private-label flexibility.
Lichttec is een in China gevestigde fabrikant van LED-stripverlichting, LED-aluminium profielen, LED-lineaire lampen, LED-neonflex and matching drivers and sensors, with over 13 years of experience shipping to Taiwan and the wider Asian market.
Technical documentation ready
LM-80 / TM-26 lifetime data, IES photometric files, IEC 62471 photobiological safety reports and LM-79 test reports available on request — exactly what Asian technical buyers expect.
Quality that matches Taiwanese standards
We use Epistar / Samsung / LG chips and Mean Well drivers — the same components the best Taiwanese brands specify. Consistent quality, batch after batch.
Compleet systeem, één leverancier
Strip + profiel + diffusor + driver + connector + sensor in één doos. U hoeft niet langer drie fabrieken achterna te zitten om één lineair verlichtingssysteem te laten werken.
OEM/ODM-vriendelijk
Aangepaste PCB-lengte, CCT, CRI, merkbedrukking en aangepaste verpakking. Kleine MOQ's voor proefbestellingen, fabrieksdirecte prijzen voor volume.
