The 30th China (Guzhen) International Lighting Fair featured the latest innovative lighting products and technologies from thousands of Chinese companies, according to the organizers.

The products in the fair's main venue cover the entire lighting industrial chain with numerous subcategories ranging from smart, decorative, residential, commercial, outdoor and cultural tourism lighting to lamp and equipment accessories.
