Canada Light Control Switches Market Overview, 2028
The light control switches in Canada date back to the early 20th century, when electric lighting began to replace gas lighting in urban centres. In the early years, light switches were simple on/off switches, with the user having to manually flip a switch to turn the lights on or off. These switches were typically located on the wall near the light fixture and sometimes incorporated a pull chain to turn the light on or off. During the 1950s and 1960s, as electrical systems became more sophisticated, a variety of new light and fixture control switches were introduced in Canada. These included timers that could automatically turn lights on and off at specific times, occupancy sensors that could detect when a room was occupied and turn lights on or off accordingly, and photocells that could sense the level of natural light and adjust the artificial lighting accordingly. The 1970s and 1980s saw further advances in light and fixture control switches in Canada with the introduction of electronic dimmers, wireless remote controls, and programmable lighting systems. In the 1990s, digital controls and home automation systems began to emerge, providing homeowners with even greater control over their lighting systems. Today, the light and fixture control switch industry in Canada is characterised by a wide range of products, from simple on/off switches to complex home automation systems that can control lighting, temperature, security, and other functions. These systems are increasingly being integrated with voice-activated assistants, mobile apps, and other technologies, providing users with greater convenience, energy efficiency, and control over their lighting systems.
According to the research report ""Canada Light Control Switches Market Overview, 2028,"" published by Bonafide Research, the Canada Light Control Switches Market is expected to grow at more than 7% CAGR from 2023 to 2028. With rising energy costs and concerns about climate change, there is a growing demand for energy-efficient lighting solutions in Canada. Light and fixture control switches can help reduce energy consumption by enabling users to adjust lighting levels and turn lights off when they are not needed. Smart home technology is becoming increasingly popular in Canada and light and fixture control switches are a key component of many smart home systems. These systems allow users to control their lighting remotely, set schedules, and integrate their lighting with other smart devices in their homes. Canada has a significant amount of ageing infrastructure, including older buildings that may not have modern lighting systems in place. As these buildings are renovated or retrofitted, there is an opportunity to upgrade their lighting systems with more energy-efficient and advanced light and fixture control switches. The Canadian government has implemented several initiatives and regulations aimed at reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. This includes energy efficiency standards for lighting products, which are driving the adoption of more energy-efficient lighting solutions and light and fixture control switches. The light and fixture control switch market in Canada is experiencing significant technological advancements, including the integration of sensors and smart home technology. This is driving demand for more advanced and innovative light and fixture control switches that can provide greater control over lighting and energy usage.
Based on the report, product types include rocker and toggle switches, touch-based switches, dimmers, sensor-based switches, wireless/kinetic switches, and others like keypad switches, push-button switches, and illuminated switches. During the report, the rocker and toggle switches had the highest market share in the market. The use of rocker switches is to house a button for operation that can be pressed on either end like a seesaw to connect or disconnect an electrical circuit. They are often used as ON/OFF switches on the main power supplies for electronic devices. Rocker and toggle switches are simple and intuitive to use, and they have been in use for many decades. Many consumers are familiar with these types of switches, which makes them a popular choice for both residential and commercial applications. As well, the rocker and toggle switches are relatively easy to install, even for non-professionals. This means that consumers can save money on installation costs by doing the work themselves, which adds to their overall appeal. In Canada, touch-based switches will grow at the highest CAGR. Smart home technology is gaining popularity in Canada, and touch-based switches are a key component of many smart home systems. These switches allow users to control their lighting remotely and integrate their lighting with other smart devices in their homes.
Based on the application segment, which includes residential, commercial, and others (industrial, highways, public places, and architectural places), the residential segment is leading the Canadian light and fixture switch market. Canada has a high homeownership rate, which means that there is a large market for residential lighting and fixture control switches. Homeowners are more likely to invest in lighting and fixture control switches to improve the aesthetic appeal of their homes and increase their energy efficiency. In the future, the commercial segment will grow at the highest CAGR rate. In Canada, distribution channels include retail stores, institutions, supermarkets, hypermarkets, and online. The top retail stores in Canada for light and fixture control switches are Home Depot, Lowe's, RONA, Canadian Tyre, and Best Buy. Hypermarkets and supermarkets in Canada typically offer a limited selection of lighting and fixture control switches, as they tend to focus more on groceries and household items. However, some hypermarkets and supermarkets do offer a selection of basic switches for residential use. Here are some of them: Walmart, Costco, and Loblaw.
