History
LightCorp was founded In 1986 in response to a request from Westinghouse to develop a product that couldn’t be sourced anywhere else.
What started as a single solution blossomed through decades of development, capability-building and acquisition, resulting in what LightCorp is today: a multi-category, agile workspace expert. We meet the needs of our customers as a contract manufacturer cultivating mastery in lighting, power and functional accessories by focusing on front-end research. Only by understanding what end-users need are we able to develop products that meet human needs and bring good energy to all kinds of spaces.
Corporate Responsibility
LightCorp exists for the benefit of our associates, the community, and the owners. We know that our responsibilities, obligations, and impacts extend far beyond the products we provide. That’s why every decision we make as a company endeavors to support and provide opportunities for people to thrive. Learn more about our corporate responsibility programs and certifications.
