COOPERSBURG, Pa. – Lutron Electronics Co. has purchased Orluna LED Technologies Limited, a leading manufacturer of architectural lighting fixtures based in the United Kingdom. It marks Lutron’s first acquisition outside of North America.
Orluna’s product line of high-quality downlights, uplights and surface and track lighting complements Lutron’s advanced lighting, shading and control solutions, Lutron said. The move strengthens Lutron’s global reach, not only in the U.K. but also in Europe and the Middle East. Orluna was founded in 2010 and will continue to operate out of its U.K. headquarters.
“This strategic move strengthens Lutron’s commitment to delivering exceptional lighting solutions, further expanding our global portfolio to meet the needs of our customers,” said Ben Bard, vice president, luxury residential business at Lutron Electronics. “Orluna’s broad and elegant fixture portfolio, combined with Lutron solutions, will raise the bar for quality and design. Together, we will drive innovation and transform the way spaces are illuminated, blending technology and aesthetics seamlessly.”

We look forward to this next chapter where, together, we will create beautiful interiors through the harmony of light whilst maintaining consistent loyalty to our customers.”
Orluna products are available in Asia Pacific, Europe, the Middle East and the United Kingdom. They are currently not available in North America.
Lutron’s last acquisition was in 2019 when it purchased Limelight.
