45+ years of trusted lighting solutions

ASL since 1979, we’ve shone as a steadfast partner in the lighting industry — demonstrating skill, dependability, and unmatched service.

Bright beginnings

It all began with a thermistor disk. The year was 1979 and, at an out-of-the-way tradeshow, our founder discovered a technology that would extend the life of an incandescent bulb, while simultaneously reducing labor cost.

He adopted this technology, and established a manufacturing plant in Trenton, NJ, to bring this innovative concept to life through commercial applications.

Increasing our wattage

Over our 40+ years in the industry, we’ve focused on developing two things: strong relationships with the best suppliers and manufacturers around the world, and extensive expertise in purchasing and logistics.

These two strengths allow us to offer a vast collection of fixtures for a diverse range of project types, and deliver even the most challenging jobs seamlessly and expeditiously.

Illuminating the future

In 2022, we embarked on a fresh journey under new ownership, preserving our history while embracing an era of renewed innovation and expansion.

At 44+ lightyears in, we’re dynamic, committed, and agile as ever. Our inspiration is fueled by the spirit of reinvention, focusing on forward-thinking principles that push boundaries while respecting the lessons learned from our past.
