Sankpal is a former Honeywell executive who also has top level management experience at IOT technology companies such as Resideo and Trimble.

“Since joining Acuity two years ago, Sach has been a positive influence on our performance and our culture,” stated Neil Ashe, Chairman, President & CEO of Acuity Brands, Inc. “He brings over 30 years of experience accelerating transformation, driving innovation and positioning global industrial technology organizations for future growth.

“Trevor Palmer, the current President of the ABL business, has made many positive contributions to the business, leading ABL through several years of transformation that positions us for future success. He will be leaving the company after a successful tenure,” Ashe added.

“We are taking Acuity to places that it has never been by doing things differently than they’ve been done in the past,” he continued. “Creating a single lighting organization under the leadership of Sach will enable us to connect our processes more effectively end-to-end to accelerate growth and drive productivity. We thank Trevor for his many contributions and look forward to the future with confidence.”
