Pennsylvania-based Lutron Electronics Co., has acquired Orluna LED Technologies Ltd., a premier United Kingdom-based manufacturer specializing in high-quality architectural lighting fixtures. The acquisition marks Lutron’s first outside North America.

“As we enter a world where luminaires and controls continue to merge, we are delighted to team up with the leading lighting, shading and controls partner, Lutron. Lutron and Orluna are both family-run companies with a similar long-term outlook. We look forward to this next chapter where, together, we will create beautiful interiors through the harmony of light whilst maintaining consistent loyalty to our customers,” said Andrew Kilborn, managing director at Orluna.
