Tala

The young British start-up tala produces 100% carbon-neutral (!) enchanting LED bulbs and lights. Cutting-edge lighting technology meets traditional craftsmanship; for example, the glass bodies of the VORONOI series are mouth-blown and fitted with state-of-the-art LED technology, whose colour temperature perfectly matches that of the traditional Edison bulb.

To achieve a carbon-neutral balance, tala – which is a core founding idea – plants 10 trees for every 200 units sold! The low energy consumption of the bulbs makes a further contribution to tala's eco-friendliness.

"WHY BUY TALA? 1. A Tala bulb lasts 15 times longer than a traditional bulb. 2. Tala lights produce a warm, instant light that perfectly imitates the warmth of the original Edison bulb. 3. Investment is returned in 6-9 months on energy savings and avoided replacement costs. 4. Tala lightbulbs use only 10% of the energy required by their incandescent counterparts. 5. Over its lifetime, using a Tala bulb instead of a traditional incandescent prevents 1 tonne of CO2 from being released into the atmosphere. 6. For every 200 units sold, we plant 10 trees."
