What Ourolux does
Ourolux Comercial LTDA is a privately held Brazilian lighting and electrical products company headquartered in São Paulo, founded in 1993, with 30+ years of operating history in Brazil. The company markets itself as the leading brand in lighting products and a pioneer of LED technology in the country, distributing approximately 800 SKUs organized across five categories: Iluminação (LED lamps, smart CONTROLED line, SUPERLED, vintage, halogen, fluorescent, discharge), Luminárias (high-bay, panels, spots, reflectors, outdoor, solar-powered luminaires), Energia Solar (Procel-certified 550W monocrystalline PV modules, grid-tied inverters, structures, string boxes, EV chargers), Proteção Elétrica (circuit breakers, IDR devices, surge protectors, power filters), and Pilhas e Baterias (alkaline and zinc batteries).
The company monetizes almost exclusively through one-time hardware sales across four parallel channels: direct-to-consumer e-commerce via ourolux.com.br, WhatsApp-based order capture, supermarket retail (where Ourolux claims best-selling lamp status for four consecutive years), and a B2B2C integrator partner network (Integradores Ourolux Solar, managed via lpsolar.ourolux.com.br) for photovoltaic deployments. To support higher-ASP solar orders, Ourolux has assembled a financing-facilitation ecosystem with BNDES, Caixa, Banco do Brasil, Santander, and FNE Sol. The portfolio also includes a Solar Calculator tool for demand generation and a content-marketing blog covering LED and solar topics.
End customers are primarily Brazilian residential consumers, supplemented by commercial businesses, rural/agricultural buyers, and supermarket retail chains. Roberto Saheli serves as CEO. Ourolux holds Procel certification for its flagship 550W PV module (since April 24, 2023) and is a member of ABSOLAR and ABILUX industry associations. Revenue, headcount, funding, and ownership are not publicly disclosed; the company is privately held and operates as an independent going concern.
