Basingstoke, United Kingdom, 3 April 2024: Glamox, a world leader in lighting, today announced that its UK company, which is branded ‘Glamox Luxonic’, has changed its company brand name to ‘Glamox’, effective today. The change recognises the growing power of the Glamox brand, the development of the UK business, particularly over the last five years, and the group’s commitment to continued growth in the UK.
Glamox, which has been present in the UK market since 1967, acquired the Luxonic Group Ltd in April 2019. The UK company has a production facility in Basingstoke, England, where it manufactures indoor and outdoor LED luminaires for commercial buildings, offices, schools, and industrial buildings. Increasingly, its Basingstoke plant is producing luminaires that are being marketed and sold not only in the UK but across Glamox’s main European markets.
“We see strong growth in the UK lighting market in the years ahead. At the same time, we now have the scale and capabilities to support the global group,” said David Hunt, Managing Director of Glamox’s UK business. “We have huge knowledge and expertise in the UK market, supported by a best-in-class manufacturing facility, so the time is right to simplify our brand name and leverage the growing awareness of the Glamox brand.”
“The Luxonic brand will continue to be used for existing branded products but will eventually disappear over time as all the new products are branded Glamox,” said Nina Hol, Chief Marketing & Communications Officer for the Glamox Group. “From a practical sense, nothing changes for our customers and partners. They will continue to enjoy the quality products and services they are used to.”
Glamox Luxonic’s customers tend to be consultants and contractors. End-user customers include BNP Paribas Bank, Heathrow Airport, Bloomberg, Amazon, Astra Zeneca, Booking.com, British Airways, Bank of England, McLaren Automotive, Ford, ABP ports, and Scottish Power, to name a few.
Glamox Luxonic’s legal name will change later this year.
