The founding of the company

During the Berlin blockade in 1948 people only have electricity for two hours a day. Too little for a small factory, which is dependent on light even when there is no electricity.

Hermann Bansbach has the idea of producing a 24V battery charger that can store enough electricity in the two hours to guarantee that there is always light for the rest of the time (always light = semper lux).

Two years later Hermann Bansbach extends his know-how to the design and production of various luminaires for fluorescent lamps, thereby laying the foundation stone for the development of Semperlux as a company.

SELUX has been on the cutting edge in the field of innovative interior and exterior lighting for over five decades. And due to its future-oriented strategies SELUX is well prepared for the years to come.

'Light. Ideas. Systems'.
