What Allight does
Allight Pty Ltd, founded in 1988 and headquartered in Perth, Australia, is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of Allight-branded mobile lighting towers and the exclusive Australian and New Zealand distributor of Perkins diesel engines (5–2,600+ HP) and FG Wilson diesel generators (7.5kVA–2,500kVA). The product range spans the MineSpec LED Gen3 and MS1000 mining-grade lighting towers, the Urban and SuperSkid ranges for construction and infrastructure, hybrid and solar-powered lighting platforms (Cube Hybrid, Urban Solar, Street Light), and the recently introduced Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). Allight is a wholly owned division of Seven Group Holdings, an ASX-listed diversified industrial group, and supports its installed base through an aftermarket parts business (including a Perkins e-commerce store), engine repower modules for legacy Allight/Sykes towers, and 24/7 service and maintenance programs delivered through branches in Perth, Brisbane, Melbourne, and Sydney, supplemented by an international dealer network.
Commercially, Allight operates a sales-led B2B model targeting enterprise and mid-market customers in mining, construction, agriculture, utilities, and hire/rental fleets. Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales of lighting towers, gensets, and engines (with disclosed MineSpec tower pricing of A$46,681–A$58,644 ex-GST per unit) and, to a lesser extent, through recurring parts, service, and extended warranty streams. Manufacturing is concentrated at the Perth facility with a stated capacity of up to 1,000 lighting towers per year, and the company has accumulated more than 13,000 units since inception (2019 milestone). Distribution outside Australia is channel-led through dealers in New Zealand, Indonesia, multiple African markets (Zambia, Tanzania, Ghana, DRC, Botswana, South Africa), and Peru, which leverage the global installed base of Perkins engines (5,000+ industrial applications, 5M+ machine owners) and FG Wilson generators (deployed across 150+ countries).

Allight competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Atlas Copco: Global industrial equipment leader with a dedicated Power and Light division selling mobile lighting towers, gensets, and energy storage solutions into mining, construction, and events. Directly comparable to Allight in mobile lighting product category and mining customer base.
- Aggreko: Global leader in temporary power and temperature control solutions, offering mobile gensets and increasingly battery storage for mining and industrial sites. Competes with Allight on integrated temporary power offerings to mining customers.
- Generac: Large US-based manufacturer of power generation equipment (industrial, commercial, residential gensets) and increasingly energy storage. Comparable to Allight's FG Wilson distribution business and emerging BESS offering.
