KOITO's advanced technology is friendly
to the environment.


KOITO succeeded in commercializing the world’s first LED headlamps and has been actively advancing development of new technologies and products that are eco-friendly.
We work on manufacturing of products which are less hazardous to environment, taking the safety of people and the preservation of the earth into consideration.

Size and Weight Reduction
By developing and utilizing materials of lower density and lessening the number of parts, we’ve reduced the size and weight of our products with a view to boosting vehicle fuel efficiency.
Power-Saving & Long Life
While ensuring the same level of brightness as that of discharge headlamps, LED headlamps offer about 30% better power-saving performance and longer life, and they improve fuel economy and reduce CO2 emissions as well.
Reduced Use of Hazardous Substances
In order to reduce hazard to environment, we removed lead from electronic products, and removed mercury from discharge bulbs, and removed hexavalent chromium from relevant products.


KOITO - Awards from the Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan, and from Illuminating Engineering Institute of Japan (IEIJ), and R&D 100 Awards
KOITO’s LED headlamps, born of our advanced technologies, have been highly received by various fields and have won various awards.


LED Headlamp


In May 2007, KOITO successfully commercialized the world's first LED headlamp. The new LED headlamp technology has achieved world-leading brightness using high power white LEDs and unique optical controls to produce this optimal lighting system. In addition, the power-saving and long life and space-savings gained by the LED headlamp promises environment friendly advantages for the future.

FEATURES
POWER-SAVING Improved fuel efficiency →Reduction of CO2 emissions
NOVELTY New looks & Increased design freedom
LONG LIFE No need for replacement of LEDs
INSTANT LIGHTING Increased safety at night and in tunnels


White LED

KOITO developed the white LED in collaboration with NICHIA CORPORATION. A unique optical control system was developed to efficiently utilize the white light emission. The white LED is one of the most powerful in the world, requiring a high-efficiency cooling system to deliver optimal headlamp performance: long life with minimal light reduction and chromaticity change over time.

A LED package for headlamps FEATURES:
1.High luminous flux & High luminance
2.Long life
3.Optimum chromaticity


Lamp Structure

The KOITO lamp provides beam patterns that improve visibility for the driver. The superior beam pattern is made from light combined by a small triplet projector and a small reflector. An attractive lamp appearance is provided by the unique lamp structure.




Highly Functional Headlamp System


Koito introduces the innovative high performance headlamp system with many functions and is equipped with an automatic leveling function to fully improve the performance of the gas discharge headlamp system.


Gas Discharge Headlamps
(GDHL)

A high - intensity gas discharge light source eliminates filament breakage due to vibrations and ensures double the product life, triple the brightness and just over half the power consumption of halogen bulbs.
Dynamic auto leveling
The auto leveling function keeps the upper and lower lighting angle of the headlamp at a constant level.
It is employed because adoption of a discharge headlamp can enhance the brightness, whereas the glare to oncoming vehicles is eliminated.


Headlamp Cleaners
Dirty headlamps cut driver visibility.Headlamp Cleaners' powerful jet spray gets rid of dirt, bugs and other buildup on lens quickly and efficiently so drivers are never kept in the dark.
