Lutron Electronics, a specialist in lighting control, automated shading solutions, and intelligent fixtures, has announced its acquisition of Orluna LED Technologies, a UK-based manufacturer specialising in high-quality architectural lighting fixtures. The acquisition marks Lutron’s first outside North America.

Founded in 2010, Orluna is known for its high-quality downlights, uplights, and surface and track fixtures. Orluna’s sleek, compact architectural fixtures complement Lutron’s advanced lighting, shading, and control solutions for luxury residential and hospitality markets, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and functional precision.

“This strategic move strengthens Lutron’s commitment to delivering exceptional lighting solutions, further expanding our global portfolio to meet the needs of our customers,” says 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.”

Expanding Global Reach and Market Influence

This acquisition highlights the importance of global markets, reinforcing Lutron’s ability to deliver comprehensive lighting, shading, and control solutions not only in the UK, but also in other key international regions such as Europe and the Middle East.

Andrew Kilborn, Managing Director at Orluna, comments, “As we enter a world where luminaires and controls continue to merge, we are delighted to team up with the leading lighting, shading and controls partner, Lutron.

“Lutron and Orluna are both family-run companies with a similar long-term outlook. 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 UK, and will continue to be purchased through existing sales channels. Currently, Orluna products are not available for purchase in North America. The company will maintain operations at its UK headquarters, ensuring continuity for its existing customer base while benefiting from Lutron’s global reach and resources.

“We’re thrilled to welcome the Orluna team to the Lutron family,“ notes Javier Segovia, Vice- President of Sales and Services for the UK and Europe. “This acquisition supports Lutron’s long-term strategy to grow our presence in key regions and enhance our position in the global luxury residential and hospitality lighting markets. Our team looks forward to working with our shared customers on this next chapter.“
