What Halla does
Halla, a.s. is a privately held Czech joint-stock company founded in 1992 that designs and manufactures interior LED luminaires, positioning itself as the leading Czech producer of designer technical luminaires. The company operates a wholly owned production complex in Nové Město nad Metují and a development laboratory with goniophotometer (16m mirror-detector distance), integrating spheres, and a thermal draught-free chamber, supporting in-house R&D of proprietary spectral technologies including Human Centric Lighting (HCL), StrongColour, RealColour (Ra>97), Tunable White (2700-6500K), RealWhite, and Biodynamic full-spectrum. Its product portfolio spans two main categories — modular lighting systems (e.g., Flumo60-S, Flumo100-S, Lina35-S to Lina80-S, Sant-S, Mila-S, Global Trac) and single luminaires (Rotao24, Rundo family, Burbu, Shift, Vali, Sineli, Leira, and others) — covering recessed, surface, suspended, wall, track, free-standing, and table applications with optional Casambi/DALI control and BIM/DIALux/Revit integration.
Halla sells exclusively through a network of approximately 350 business partners across 50 countries rather than directly to end customers; orders are quoted on request and partners receive DIALux calculations, BIM objects, photometric data (LDT/IES), product training, and joint event support. The company executes roughly 3,500 projects per year, delivers selected luminaires within 5 business days, and reports a complaint rate below 0.1% — a quality signal emphasized in its enterprise-focused customer base spanning offices, retail, cultural institutions (e.g., Národní muzeum, Museum of Ethnography Budapest), telecom retail (Yettel/PPF), legal services (White & Case), logistics (Cargo-Partner), and education (Andílek Montessori). Headquartered in Prague with approximately 105 employees averaging over 7 years of tenure, Halla holds ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications, EU and UK trademarks, and a portfolio of international design awards including Red Dot 2025 (Rotao24), Red Dot 2014/2015, German Design, iF Design, and A' Design.
