Mineglow

What Mineglow does

Mineglow is an Australian privately held industrial lighting company, founded in 2014 and headquartered across Brisbane and Sydney offices, that designs and manufactures LED strip lighting systems engineered for hazardous-area and harsh-environment applications. The company's core products serve underground and surface mining, oil & gas, tunneling, ports and conveyors, water utilities, and general industrial customers, with claimed energy efficiency gains up to 71% and maintenance-free operation up to 10 years. Its portfolio spans the x-Glo Standard Range, x-Glo Long Range, x-Glo Ultra Long 48V Tunnel Range (capable of continuous illumination up to 400 metres between power sources), the SafeGlo Exm explosion-proof series (the world's first IECEx and ATEX certified LED strip light for Zone 1/21 and 2/22 explosive atmospheres), and the em-Control intelligent emergency lighting platform with Modbus TCP and HTTP/JSON API integration.

Underlying the products are several proprietary technologies: the patented C-Mask nanotech dust and dirt retardant technology built into silicone and PVC extrusions; the patent-pending Twinflex dual-conductor design with backup conductor for redundancy; IP67-rated enclosures with specialised thermal management for 12V-48V DC operation in extreme conditions (-40°C to +55°C); and a configurable visual safety communications layer using colour, direction, and pulse patterns.

Mineglow operates a B2B enterprise field-sales go-to-market, with project-based custom quotation (no public price list) delivered through inside sales via Brisbane and Sydney phone lines and website quote requests. Named enterprise customers include BHP, Newmont, Anglo American, Glencore, Shell, INPEX, Qantas, Amentum, Salini Impregilo, and Water NSW. Distribution is direct, with sales cycle lengths typical of industrial specification-driven projects. Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales of LED strip systems, power supplies (320W-2400W), installation accessories (magnetic holders, connector kits, repair kits, UPVC channels), and the em-Control intelligent lighting platform. The company holds IECEx, ATEX, AS/NZS 60079, CE, SABS, CULus, and RoHS certifications, and maintains a strategic technology partnership with MST Global integrating em-Control with MST's HELIX digital mining platform.
