Philips Indal

About Philips Indal

Originally a Spanish company, Indal was established in 1950 and became a leading manufacturer of professional luminaires, with a primary focus on outdoor lighting solutions. The company designs, develops, and manufactures lighting for professional markets, including road, industrial, and floodlighting applications. In June 2011, Royal Philips Electronics announced an agreement to acquire Indal, incorporating it into the Professional Luminaires business of Philips Lighting. This acquisition was a strategic move for Philips to enhance its presence in professional lighting, particularly in energy-efficient LED-based applications, and to strengthen its market position in Europe.

At the time of the acquisition, Indal was headquartered in Valladolid, Spain, employed approximately 1,000 people across 11 countries, and had sales of EUR 156 million in 2010. The company had a distribution presence in over 60 countries. The deal aimed to combine the technological expertise, experienced teams, and best practices of both companies to advance the transition to LED lighting. Indal was noted for its strong position in LED technology solutions, including its subsidiary Indal WRTL, which was a key supplier for major projects like the LED street lighting in Birmingham, UK.

Philips Indal operates within the Electrical Equipment industry, producing a range of outdoor lighting systems and products, such as smart systems, LED lights, and solutions for horticultural and building applications. The company's products are known for features like REVOLED™ technology, which offers energy-efficient and high-performance alternatives to conventional lighting. Their offerings cater to a variety of lighting classifications and are designed for effective glare control and reduced light pollution.
