Dialight Expands to Australia via Acquisition

Dialight, the innovative global leader in LED lighting technology, has recently acquired 75% of Lightday Investments Pty Ltd trading as Industrial Lighting Solutions (ILS), its Australian distributor of ultra-efficient lighting products.

The newly formed company will trade as Dialight ILS Australia and has already introduced Dialight’s ‘turtle-friendly’ LED lighting into environmentally sensitive installations such as Western Australia’s Gorgon Gas Project, one of the world's largest natural gas projects and the largest single resource natural gas project in Australia's history. Dialight ILS Australia will serve the large industrial/hazardous mining sector in Australia while further supporting the company’s thrust into the industrial and hazardous lighting market with its ultra-efficient lighting products.

Dialight CEO Roy Burton stated: “The addition of ILS will enable us to access new markets in these burgeoning industries and to substantially expand our business in Australia and nearby regions. This acquisition marks a significant step in our growth strategy.”
