Our values
We produce 100% ourselves
Transporting components halfway around the world harms the environment and is no longer state of the art. That's why we manufacture all our products ourselves. In our factory we produce raw boards, optical components and mechanical housings, but we also do the surface finishing and final assembly. We control the entire value chain and know exactly what we are doing, from development to recycling. In this way, we work sustainably and are able to develop ourselves continuously in every aspect.
Demand determines supply
We only produce what is really needed. In this way, we save valuable resources in production, storage and disposal, act sustainably and in the spirit of Industry 4.0. The customer is always our focus, and thanks to our intelligent networked technology, they can configure every product feature themselves.
Energy demand reduced by 30%
Cutting edge and environmentally friendly is our motto. Our production site is equipped with intelligent software to optimise the materialresource ratio and save energy. In addition, we use powder-coated ovens of the latest generation, which reduce the primary energy requirement by 30% through heat recovery.
In-house water treatment to the highest EU environmental standards
We leave nothing to chance. That's why we have our own water treatment plant, which recovers and recycles the resources from the production of raw blanks in a closed circulation system. Of course, we comply 100% with strict European environmental standards.
We use 100% renewable energy
Yes, we produce all our luminaires ourselves, but we need electricity for that too! In our in-house production process, however, we make sure that it is generated 100% from renewable energies such as photovoltaics and wind power.
Timeless design is sustainable design. Quality is an eternal value.
That is why we focus on timeless aesthetic design and replaceable, high-quality components. Minimalist sizes are just as important to us as modern recyclable materials and the ability to dismantle products into individual components at the end of their service life.
CO2 footprint reduced to 4.0 kg (per kg of aluminium)
We cannot produce without aluminium. But here, too, we have a choice in suppliers. We therefore select smelters that operate with the highest possible efficiency and obtain their energy from hydropower. In this way we reduce the CO2 footprint to 4.0 kg CO2 per kg aluminium - a quarter of the global average.
Natural wool from sustainable sources
Plastic foam for acoustic absorbers? Not with us! We mainly use natural wool from sustainable sources, which, unlike plastic, is 100% biodegradable.
Waste product of the wood industry as raw material
Sustainable polycarbonate which is used in some of our Opal diffusers uses a waste product from the wood industry as raw material: it is made with 59% pine oil and is ISCC certified according to the Mass Balancing Principle.
0% plastic in packaging
Packaging made entirely of cardboard. We have been doing this for years! Of course, without polystyrene inserts and without plastic film. Even the stretch film we use to wrap our pallets is biodegradable.
Zero waste thanks to local recycling
We even produce our packaging in-house and according to demand. We produce the cardboard boxes in such a way that every piece of waste is directly processed into pulp. And from this, new packaging parts are created again. 0% waste with 100% local recycling.
Five-year warranty on the entire range
Quality, performance, and durability - all these components have to be perfect in our luminaires. Our engineers are therefore constantly optimising our products and our development and testing facilities are certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001. Our product portfolio with test marks for Europe (ENEC), USA/Canada (ETL), Mexico (NOM) and Australia (RCA) is constantly growing. And because we are sure that our luminaires will last a long time, we offer a five-year warranty. On everything.
Diverse, inclusive & equal salary for m/f/d
Diverse perspectives are a basis for success. We rely on multiculturalism and a team from over 15 nations. Because we know: Creativity needs diversity and that's why we promote inclusion, respect every individual regardless of origin or gender and pay equal money for equal performance.
What the future holds
Our goal is an emission-free circular economy. Even if the road is still a little longer, we are on our way.
