- Zumtobel Group AG is an international lighting company specializing in the development, production, and sales of professional lighting solutions, luminaires, lighting management systems, and lighting components for indoor and outdoor applications. The Group operates through its main brands Thorn, Tridonic, and Zumtobel, offering a comprehensive portfolio that includes LED luminaires; light management systems; LED light sources and drivers; sensors; emergency lighting systems; and smart lighting controls. The company serves diverse market segments including offices, education, retail, hospitality, health, art and culture, and industry, with operations spanning Europe, North America, and other global markets. Founded in 1950 and headquartered in Dornbirn, Austria, Zumtobel Group maintains a strong presence as a European market leader in professional lighting systems and lighting components.
In recent developments, Zumtobel Group has strategically focused on advancing smart building and sustainable lighting solutions through partnerships and acquisitions. Notably, the Group entered into a strategic partnership with ABB to integrate ABB’s building automation solutions with Zumtobel’s lighting management systems to promote energy-efficient smart buildings. In 2025, the Group acquired the remaining shares in Swiss Inventron AG to strengthen its innovative lighting components capabilities. It also continues to emphasize sustainability and innovation supported by a €50 million loan from the European Investment Bank for research and development of smart, energy-efficient lighting solutions aligned with EU sustainability goals. Operationally, Zumtobel is realigning its production footprint by ceasing manufacturing at its French outdoor luminaires facility and its Highland, New York production site, responding to market conditions and focusing on core competitive areas, which involves workforce adjustments and site consolidations.
The Zumtobel Group’s service offerings are comprehensive, including consultation on lighting design and smart controls, project management of turnkey lighting solutions, and new data-based connectivity services for buildings and municipalities. This positions the company as a full-service lighting provider adapting to digital transformation in its industry. Zaum to its long history and extensive expertise in lighting effects on human environments, the Group continues to innovate in LED technology, lighting hardware and software, and sustainable building solutions globally, supported by around 5,300 employees and listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange.
