About us
FACTS
We produce luminaires and lighting systems for retail, office, hotel and residential spaces. We began our journey in 2000 and established our headquarters in New York City.
We are proud to showcase our 85,000 square foot facility in Oxford Connecticut. Truly exhibiting our mission of European design, manufactured in America.
We focus on vertical integration, our factory is home to our R&D, Production, Quality, and Customer Service teams. We are able to streamline our processes and provide short delivery times across the continent.
MISSION STATEMENT
It is our objective to develop lighting solutions that are extraordinary in terms of technology and design. Therefore, research and development are just as integral as first-class know-how in production and logistics. These competences enable us to respond flexibly to our customers’ requirements and realize specially tailored solutions quickly and efficiently.
Warehouse
An efficient factory requires cleanliness, organization, and motivated employees to perform at the highest level.
Our factory exemplifies these standards. Our employees are hard-working, organized, and proud of their work.
This is exemplified through our spotless warehouse.
Electronic Production
One of our key differentiators is our in-house electronic production department.
We utilize separate surface mount technology lines for assembling all of our circuit boards. One line is for high quantity production runs, while the other has the flexibility to work on many unique and customized boards.
By bringing these capacities in-house, it allows us to be agile and flexible, whether you need 10,000ft of BASO, or a small customized order, we have the resources and capabilities to get it done.
Laser Cutting
Our laser cutting machine is used for precision cutting. It emits a high-powered laser beam to either cleanly cut or etch a specific design on a flat sheet metal. Commercial lasers for cutting material uses a motion control system to follow a CNC pattern. The focused laser beam is directed at the material leaving precise results with a high-quality surface finish.
We also want to reduce the amount of waste material. Essentially, we are able to combine multiple laser cut parts and designs in one production run and optimize the material usage.
Sheet Metal Bending
After our laser cutting machine produces the flat pattern, it is pressed and bent to form various components, from small brackets to large housings.
Not only are we using the best machines, our in-house craftsmanship and technique are crucial to this process. It gives us the most flexibility when designing our products and pushing boundaries of creativity, especially when our clients have custom requirements for a specific project.
CNC Routing
A CNC router is a machine designed to carve out complex shapes from soft materials like wood, plastic, expanded foam and metals.
We utilize this tool to create jigs for our production processes for welding and field templates, such as creating custom made templates for the carpenter in the field if the light fixture and wall need to match.
Profile Milling
A mechanical manufacturing department needs state of the art machines and skilled CNC tradesmen to properly utilize them.
We use the highest quality machines so that our cuts, holes, slots, and grooves are accurate every time.
An inch here or there can make a big difference on site, with this in mind, our machines have precise tolerances less than a fraction of a millimeter.
Profile Bending
Bringing new processes and techniques into our facility has had a great effect on our productivity and lead times.
A tiny inaccuracy can have a dramatic effect on any curved or rounded fixture. By bringing these processes in-house, we provide the highest quality fixtures and guarantee precision through every part of the manufacturing process.
Welding
The metalworks are just as important as the acrylics.
Our welding department is another pivotal addition to our capacities. We weld all of products in house.
Once our profiles are bent, we must accurately trim the excess and weld the parts together. We continue to adapt and add to our vast manufacturing repertoire.
We look forward to showing you what we can do!
Quality
Quality to us isn't just a one-time check.
From the moment material comes through our doors, it is thoroughly inspected to ensure our products will be built with consistency and meet our rigorous standards.
We are also proud to utilize a 100% outgoing product quality inspection. We audit the illuminiation, dimming, color temperature, color rendering index, and exterior finish. You can be positive every fixture that leaves our facility has been thoroughly tested and approved before it was packaged.
Technical Support
We pride ourselves on our committed service to you.
Our office and factory in Oxford, CT is home to both our production and our Technical Support Department.
In addition, we have an office and representatives on the West Coast to provide assistance across the continent.
