Canto USA has joined The Lighting Exchange, making our product information and application resources available through its online lighting platform.
The Lighting Exchange brings together manufacturers, lighting agencies, designers, specifiers, and other industry professionals in one digital environment. Instead of searching across multiple manufacturer websites and separate product resources, users can explore lighting products, application information, imagery, and other materials through a centralized system.
For Canto USA, joining the platform gives lighting professionals another way to discover our products and include them in projects during the research and specification stages.
What Is The Lighting Exchange?
The Lighting Exchange was built to make communication between lighting manufacturers, sales agencies, and the specification community more efficient.
Its digital library gives lighting professionals a place to research products, review application information, and organize products they may want to use on upcoming projects.
The platform’s mission centers on advancing the lighting industry through communication, design, and technology. That fits naturally with the way designers and specifiers work today, where product research, technical information, images, and project communication are increasingly handled online.
Instead of collecting information from several disconnected sources, lighting professionals can use The Lighting Exchange to keep relevant products and project resources organized in one place.
Finding Canto USA Products
Lighting professionals using The Lighting Exchange can search for Canto USA to find available product listings and related materials.
This gives designers, dealers, consultants, and specifiers another way to review Canto USA products while developing a lighting plan.
For someone researching a retrofit, theatrical lighting application, architectural project, or other professional lighting installation, seeing Canto USA alongside other manufacturers can make it easier to compare options early in a project.

Building and Sharing Project Ideas
One useful feature of The Lighting Exchange is the ability to organize products into project boards.
When users find a product they want to consider, they can save it as part of a project instead of tracking separate webpages, screenshots, product sheets, and notes.
Those project tools can help lighting professionals:
- Collect possible products for a specific project.
- Keep product images and information organized.
- Add notes while reviewing different options.
- Build selections for customer presentations.
- Share ideas with other people involved in the project.
- Review options before making a final specification.
For manufacturers such as Canto USA, this creates another opportunity for products to enter the conversation earlier in the design process.
It also gives customers and project teams a clearer way to communicate about the products they are considering.
A Resource for Designers and Specifiers
The Lighting Exchange is more than a product directory. It is designed as a working resource for professionals who regularly research, specify, present, and discuss lighting products.
For a lighting designer or consultant, that can mean having product information available while developing a project.
For a sales agency, it can provide another way to share manufacturer information with customers.
For manufacturers, it creates a central location where products and supporting content are available to people actively looking for lighting solutions.
That connection between manufacturers, agencies, and specifiers is one reason Canto USA wanted to make its products available through the platform.
Continuing Education and Industry Resources
The Lighting Exchange has also included continuing education and industry-learning resources for lighting professionals.
At the time of Canto USA’s original announcement, examples of educational courses available through The Lighting Exchange and its industry partners included:
- “Designing K-12 Facilities for Resiliency, Energy-efficiency, Security and Occupant Health/Well-Being” presented by Construction Business Media
- “Measuring-up Healthy Buildings: Modes, Methods, and Meaning for Discovery and Practice” presented by Greenbuild
- “Introduction to Exterior and Facade Lighting” presented by The Lighting Exchange
Resources like these give designers and specifiers another way to stay connected with changes in lighting technology, building design, energy efficiency, and industry practices.
That educational component also makes the platform useful beyond individual product searches. Lighting professionals can research products while continuing to build their knowledge of the applications where those products may eventually be used.
Making Canto USA Easier to Find
Joining The Lighting Exchange is another way for Canto USA to make product information more accessible to the people designing and specifying professional lighting systems.
Our products are used across theatrical, architectural, educational, worship, entertainment, and other professional lighting environments. Making those products available through an industry-focused platform gives designers and specifiers another way to discover Canto USA while researching solutions for a project.
It also supports our broader goal of making it easier for customers to find the information they need before deciding on a product.
