Johann Findl first opened the doors to PLANLICHT in his garage in Vomperbach, Tyrol in 1986. What started as a brilliant idea was the beginning of an incomparable journey that continues to this day.
In 1989, a vision emerged from humble beginnings – not just to sell lighting, but to create it. The workbench became a crucible of creativity and every product bore the signature of innovation and quality.
Since that time, PLANLICHT has grown steadily, always remaining true to its promise of delivering the best customised lighting solutions.
Today, PLANLICHT is a multi-faceted company in the lighting industry with around 150 employees and an annual turnover of approximately 24 million euros. The company serves strategic markets in Europe and exports products worldwide.
LIGHTING DESIGN FOR ENHANCED WELL-BEING
Our expertise in Human Centric Lighting (HCL) focuses on individual needs. For us, light is more than just brightness – it follows the natural rhythm of the day: it stimulates in the morning, supports during the day and soothes in the evening. Our intelligent lighting solutions adapt to every situation with variable illuminance and colour temperature.
As industry pioneers, we have equipped all our products with HCL functionality. The benefits of this technology have been scientifically proven to improve concentration and well-being.
At our headquarters in Tyrol, Austria, we also produce acoustic lighting that utilises natural absorbent materials such as hay and sheep’s wool to filter out ambient noise. This transforms open-plan offices, for example, into peaceful working environments.
At PLANLICHT, light goes beyond mere technology, shaping spaces and acting as an invisible architect of wellbeing.
VERSATILITY IN LIGHTING DESIGN
At PLANLICHT we offer a wide range of luminaires in a variety of shapes and styles. From subtle downlights to versatile surface lights and flexible profile systems. Our product portfolio offers customers maximum creative freedom.
If you can’t find the right shape or size for your project, our lighting experts are on hand to help create bespoke solutions. We are more than just a manufacturer of luminaires; we are your partner in lighting design.
Explore our product families such as odelia, olmo, sqing, p.thirty and more. Each family has its own story and is ready to light up your next project.
We stand for a collaborative partnership based on service quality and trust.
