FortaCast Selected as a LightTrades Top 10 Product of the Year by EdisonReport

EdisonReport announces that FortaCast has been recognized as one of the Top 10 products of the year in LightTrades™ 2025. A panel of independent industry judges selected the winners from a broad pool of new lighting products worldwide, evaluating innovation, design, performance, and application versatility.

FortaCast™ inground lines provide sustainable, low-energy illumination for urban environments such as bus stops, crosswalks, and advisory signals. Engineered for durability with a 40-year lifespan and resistance to fire, floods, or catastrophic events, FortaCast™ allows for full replacement of lighting elements without lens removal or fixture disruption, offering cities a cost-effective, low-maintenance, and highly resilient lighting solution.

Judges Comments:
The judges responded favorably to Organic Lighting Systems’ Fortacast, noting its versatility and thoughtful design. They were impressed by its depth and construction, which offered more substance than expected while still allowing flexibility in the field.

One judge highlighted the product’s ability to curve on-site — a meaningful advantage over systems that rely on fixed radii or pre-formed segments.

The panel agreed that this adaptability creates far more opportunity to respond to specific site conditions. The judges felt the product delivers strong value as a durable, flexible solution for illuminated wayfinding integration. One judge was particularly pleased to learn that it is resistant to salt water.
